For a long time, I’ve been mentally formulating a list of the coolest songs in popular music, ever. Not necessarily the best, or the greatest – but the coolest. For example, The Shirelles’ recording of “Will You Love Me Tomorrow?” – one of the greatest pop songs of all time, but not “cool.” The Zombies’ “Time Of The Season” – super cool.
Today, it dawned on me that this one has to be on the list – and I don’t know why it isn’t, already. I’m getting senile. What an audacious musician and performer, Bo Diddley was… and he and his band(s) were so damn cool.
