The Black Gladiator was an attempt to reshape Bo into a funk artist, in the manner of Sly and the Family Stone. As an experiment it's understandable, and Bo tries very hard (even making another song-length sexual boast on "You, Bo Diddley," which also ends with a great guitar/organ duet between Bo and Bobby Alexis), but he finally fails to find a groove that works. Despite some good guitar here and there, this record falls into the same category as Muddy's Electric Mud and After the Rain albums, and Howlin' Wolf's New Album, all of which attempted to transform each into a psychedelic rocker. "Power House" is a pretty good cut, using a modified Muddy Waters-"I'm a Man"/"Mannish Boy" beat and lyrics.

This reissue LP is brand new and sealed!

If you don't want to pay the p+p, you can collect the LP from me in person at one of the many record fairs i attend. Take a look at "Record Fairs worth visiting in Leeds" on FACEBOOK.

Also take a look at "Tapestry Of Delights vinyl records" on FACEBOOK to keep updated with new titles that are being added in my Ebay shop on a daily basis.

If you have any questions,please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Thanks for looking.
