Bo Diddley - His Underrated 1962 LP (Bonus Track Version) (2013)

Part of Bo Diddley's brilliance was that he could come up with amazing music like this seemingly at will, and when you can do that, your name really is all the description your records need. Hey Bo Diddley, indeed. [In 2013, Hoodoo Records reissued Bo Diddley with the subtitle "His Underrated 1962 LP," though who with ears and a lick of sense would ever suggest this album was anything other than brilliant? For their reissue, Hoodoo included a dozen bonus tracks, a hodgepodge of tunes culled from a 1962 television appearance, home-recorded demos, and rare studio sides. The bonus material seems to have been tossed together with little rhyme or reason, but it flows together well enough, and testifies to Bo's ceaseless creative energy in the '50s and '60s.
