Use by other artists
Prior to Bo Diddley's self-titled song, the rhythm occurred in 13 rhythm and blues songs recorded between 1944 and 1955, including two by Johnny Otis from 1948. In 1944, "Rum and Coca Cola", containing the beat, was recorded by the Andrews Sisters and in 1952, a song with similar syncopation, "Hambone", was recorded by Red Saunders' Orchestra with the Hambone Kids.

Later, the beat was included in many songs composed by artists other than Bo Diddley:

Wow. Amazing. I saw Ronnie Hawkins back in the day at the Crang Plaza Jane and Wilson Ave. when I was a teenager. He sang HEY BO DIDDLEY. That got me hooked.

Aw shucks...

Song was written and recorded by Buddy Holly and the Crickets, my first rock and roll hero as a teenager. He wrote the song using his first and middle names, Charles Hardin. I recall going to high school wearing my dark rimmed eye glasses and my Buddy Holly hair style with a curly q on my forehead. That's when i had hair. LOL.

Tony Iommi has been told by his oncologist that he can no longer tour full time - Black Sabbath is done. 😭

I had lunch at Ricci's yesterday, they were playing new music...vapid auto tuned garbage.

Bluecolt...I Can Hear Music....is a great song.......and sounds great regardless who performs it

I love Ronnie Spector..anyone familiar with the Black Music thread can attest to this

I know that we should support the Ukrainians but could anyone translate this song or at least, tell us who this group is.

Another video following up on a previous posting to this thread. It's a newer video of Nikita, more Ukrainian girls trying to make a living in a wore-torn country. Enjoy.
This video is ample evidence why Justin should open the gates and let these poor unfortunate girls emigrate to Canada. There seems to be a lot of tonnage in those tits.

Ogibowt, This is my favourite Ronettes song, "Do I Love You." Of course, the background is by Ronnie Spector's husband, Phil.
The Ronettes had 2 gigantic hits..Baby I Love You and Be My Baby.....but this one stands the test of time..imo....immaculate vocals by Ronnie
i admit it....im getting shivers......im a sap

I know The Twist was very popular in its day, but how did this exotic dance track from 1963 get overlooked?
