Description
A BEAUTIFUL BO DIDDLEY ITEM WITH 4 TRAKS THAT SHOW DIFFERENT SIDES OF BO. IT WAS RELEASED '63 AND HAS SLEEVE NOTES BY GUY STEVENS.
THE TITLE TRAK, "THE STORY OF BO DIDDLEY" WAS COPIED, CHANGED, AND ENHANCED BY THE ANIMALS ON THEIR FIRST ALBUM, WITH A GOOD PUNCHLINE. HERE BO SHOWS HIS HUMOUR AND AWARENESS.
"LITTLE GIRL", SIDE 1's 2nd CUT HAS SOME EXCELLENT HARP(LITTLE WALTER?) AND ISN'T CUT WITH THE STANDARD DIDDLEY BEAT BUT WITH MORE OF A BLUES FEEL.
SIDE 2 OPENS WITH "PUT THE SHOES ON WILLIE" WHICH WAS WRITTEN BY JOHN LEE HOOKER. IT'S A DUET WITH, THE DUTCHESS(?) OR? I'M SURESOMEBODY OUT THERE KNOWS!
THE FINAL TRAK, "RUN DIDDLEY DADDY" IS ANOTHER STORY, AKIN TO CHUCK BERRY'S LYRICAL STYLE, BUT STILL WITH THE CLASSIC DIDDLEY BEAT.
THE SLEEVE IS SLIGHTLY IMPAIRED BY A SMALL CREASE ON THE TOP RIGHT HAND CORNER ALTHOUGH IT DOES NOT BREAK THE LAMINATION. THE RIM OF THE DISC SHOWS SLIGHTLY FRONT AND BACK BUT NOT AT ALL BADLY(SEE PIC). ON THE BACK A STICKER OF SOME SORT HAS BEEN REMOVED AT SOME TIME TAKING THE TOP CORNERS OF "P" AND "Y" ON THE LABEL ID, PYE, OFF. THERE IS THAT SLIGHT CURL ON THE COVER OPENING THAT OCCURS DUE THE SLIGHT LAMINATE SHRINKAGE. THE RECORD ITSELF LOOKS MINT WITH NO VISIBLE SPINDLE MARKS.
ON THE "B" LABEL THERE IS A GHOST OF A SMALL ROUND STICKER MARK AND "RUN DIDDLEY DADDY" HAS SOMETHING IN THE GROOVE THAT I CANNOT BUDGE AND WOULD RATHER PASS IT ON AS IS. MY CLEANING METHODS HAVE FAILED TO BUDGE IT BUT IT IS DEFINATELY NOT "IN" THE PRESS. AS IS, IT CLICKS SLIGHTLY FOR 2 REVOLUTIONS. OTHER THAN THAT I WOULD GRADE THE DISC AS EX.
