Bo Diddley Passed Away
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- Bo Diddley, a founding father of rock 'n' roll whose distinctive "shave and a haircut, two bits" rhythm and innovative guitar effects inspired legions of other musicians, died Monday after months of ill health. He was 79.

R.I.P to a rock pioneer. "Bo don't know Diddley."

Oh no! I hadn't heard this.
RIP, Bo. Truly one of a kind.

Sad news indeed. He was a pioneer and an icon . . . and a brother in Phi Mu Alpha to boot. He was an honorary initiate of, I believe, Eta Omega Chapter at University of Florida.

"Hey, Bo Diddley"
An original giant and one of the fathers of rock and roll.
Rest in peace.

They've been playing lots of Bo Diddley on Sinfonia Radio 1898 since Monday. They're playing "Spend My Life With You" right now.
