A true icon of the rock and roll world has passed away. Bo Diddley was reported to have suffered from heart failure, and passed away at his home in Archer, Florida, at the age of 79.

His trademark guitar rhythms have influenced generations of rockers, notably The Rolling Stones, The Yardbirds and The Animals. My favorite Bo songs are “Who Do You Love” and “I’m A Man.”
