Damn it. Definitely a rock 'n' roll pioneer. He will be sorely missed. But boy will he leave his mark; not only on his own tracks like "Bo Diddley", "Mona" and "Who Do You Love," but also on tracks by others like "Magic Bus" (The Who), "Not Fade Away" (Buddy Holly), "She's The One" (Springsteen), etc. with his unique beat.
This morning you've got time for a hot, home-cooked breakfast! Delicious and piping hot in only 3 microwave minutes.

I had the good privilege of seeing him perform back in the late 80s in a big hotel ballroom. He used a local pick-up band for backing and was really great. RIP

Wow. I'll have to tell my guitar-loving kid, Rob.
