Question

what is the best album Bo Diddley has ever made or played on ?

Answer 1

Gunslinger is a good album.



Super Blues with Muddy Waters & Howlin' Wolf is also pretty cool.



I'd go with the aforementioned Chess 50th Anniversary Collection: His Best. It pretty much covers all of his classic tunes. But if you want to shell out the money, the Chess Box is also well worth your time and pocketbook.

Answer 2

Bo Diddley's recorded over 20 albums since hooking up with Chess Records in 1958. Most of those have been rereleased on CD since 1985. There are a few album's that are "must have's"......."His Best (Chess 50th Anniversary Collection)", "500% More Man" and "Got Another Bag Of Tricks". Or, you could get "The Chess Box", which cover his biggest tracks on 2 discs. Great blues and primal Rock & Roll.

Answer 3

I still have Bo Diddley on vinyl, I bought in the 60s. I saw him live then on a number of occasions, and I last saw him live about 15 years ago. Like many artists of his era. His albums overlap a lot, and his recent releases do not make good value for money. A great showman onstage, he used to have a female bass player, and a guy who only played maracas.
