Editorial Reviews
CD Description
The death of Bo Diddley in 2008 provided an occasion to reassess the man's sizable contribution to rock & roll, and thenicely compiled ROAD RUNNER: THE CHESS MASTERS 1959-1960, also released in '08, facilitates the purpose. ROAD RUNNER packs 52 tracks onto two discs, adding up to a case history ofDiddley's distinctive, groove-driven, blues-and-soul-fueledgenius. In addition to well-known Diddley tunes featuring his classic line-up of two guitars, bass drums, and vocals (with a variety of his trademark beats), ROAD RUNNER features 23 previously unreleased tracks (including many alternate takes), making it a must for collectors and completists. But THE CHESS MASTERS also works well as an introduction, summingup the essence of Bo Diddley as one of rock's founding fathers.
