Summary
"It's almost impossible to be a fan of rock and roll or blues without also being a fan of Bo Diddley! As popular as the musician became later in life, he started out small. Before he performed on big stages, he played music on street corners. No matter how he got his start, Diddley had a message he wanted to send into the world and nothing was going to stop him from doing just that! Read on to find out how this amazing musician went from playing for audiences on street corners to being heard by the whole world." --back cover
