BOPPIN THE BLUES

BO DIDDLEY - Elephant Man

Few people remember Bo for much more than "Who Do You Love" and his other hambone style tunes, but by the 70s, Bo was diddlin' with the funk jus-a l'il bit. If anyone got the Death in Vegas "Back to Mine", they'll remember this one.



HUEY "PIANO" SMITH - Don't You Just Know It

Covered by The Sonics a decade later, this familiar but forgotten call-and-response number resurfaced in its original form on the Snatch soundtrack a few years back.



SCREAMIN JAY HAWKINS - Screamin Demon

Don't even try to tell me that psychobilly or goth music is anywhere nearly as freaky as Screamin Jay. Even his party tracks scare the shit out of everyone.
