1	Have Guitar, Will Travel (1959) more music like this by Bo Diddley Amazingly, Bo Diddley's third album -- containing classics such as "Cops and Robbers," "Run Diddley Daddy," and "Mona (I Need You Baby)" -- has only been reissued on vinyl, and even that's out of print. More than one British Invasion band learned what they needed to know about American rock & roll from the songs on this record (the Stones cut ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $9.00!
2	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Bo Diddley (2000) more music like this by Bo Diddley This fine but brief summation of Bo Diddley's career includes all the relevant hits ("Bo Diddley," "I'm a Man") as well as a few not-so-relevant ones ("Dearest Darling," "Say Man"). Its brevity doesn't give much opportunity to cover all of Diddley's achievements -- none of the Millennium collections really do -- but for beginners it's a good place ... see all copies from $5.97! new only from $6.85!
3	Cruisin' 1959 (1991) more music like this by Various Artists Part of L.A. DJ Hunter Hancock's theme included the declaration "you'll hear music that runs the gamut from bebop to ballads, swing to sweet, and blues to boogie." And while on this fifth installment of Increase Records' history of classic rock & roll radio, the claim isn't strictly true, Hancock is heard guffawing in between an array of R&B hits ... see all copies from $7.48! new only from $7.48!
4	Bo Diddley Is a Gunslinger (1961) more music like this by Bo Diddley Not only does it sport one of the most striking album covers of its era (Diddley decked out in cowboy finery, about to get the drop on some unfortunate varmint with one of his fieriest guitars lying at his feet), this 1961 album contains some fine music. The title track continues the legend of you-know-who, while "Ride on Josephine" and "Cadillac" ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $9.00!
5	His Best (1997) more music like this by Bo Diddley With Bo Diddley's various hits and anthology packages all out of print and the multi-disc deluxe box set out of pocketbook reach for most casual consumers, MCA finally comes up with a 20-track compilation that hits the bull's-eye and makes this rock pioneer's best and most influential work available to everyone. The song list reads like a primer ... see all copies from $8.49! new only from $8.49!
6	Bo Diddley/Go Bo Diddley (1986) more music like this by Bo Diddley Legendary guitarist, gifted songwriter, master of rhythm, snappy dresser -- Bo Diddley is all these things and more, and this two-fer CD, which reissues Diddley's first two albums on one convenient compact disc, offers a solid introduction to this man's special brand of musical innovation. While anyone looking for a full overview of Diddley's ... see all copies from $73.69!
7	Basic Blues, Vol. 1 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $5.19! new only from $5.19!
8	Ultimate 16: Rock and Roll 50th Anniversary (2005) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
9	The Story of Bo Diddley: The Very Best of Bo Diddley (2006) more music like this by Bo Diddley Back in the late '80s, when the CD boom was on and people were busy feeding their new machines like the discs would disappear, MCA Records lavished some attention on the Bo Diddley catalog, putting out a few reissues of his earliest albums, a couple of hits compilations, and one flawed if well-intended box set -- and that was it. Across the nearly ... see all copies from $18.01! new only from $18.01!
10	Chess Pieces: The Very Best of Chess (2005) more music like this by Various Artists Although Chess Records is generally regarded as a blues label, the imprint, owned and run by brothers Leonard and Phil Chess, actually released a fair amount of R&B, early soul, gospel, nascent rock & roll, and the occasional jazz title, and as this powerful two-disc set shows, the range of classic music that came out of the label's Chicago ... see all copies from $19.19! new only from $19.19!
11	His Greatest Sides, Vol. 1 (1983) more music like this by Bo Diddley There never was a Volume Two, partly owing to the change in ownership of the Chess Records catalog in the mid-'80s. At the time, however, this single LP offered the best sound on the classic Bo Diddley songs, even if it didn't match Got My Own Bag Of Tricks in the number of tracks. It wasn't bad, but the Chess Box has made it irrelevant. Bruce ... see all copies from $1.99!
12 view cover	Rock & Roll: 50th Anniversary Collection (2004) more music like this by Various Artists The Madacy label rarely put out excellent collections, often resorting to poor material and lightweight running times, but this two-disc set is a solid exception to the rule. Rock & Roll: 50th Anniversary Collection celebrates the golden anniversary of rock & roll (or, put better, the date of its first impact on the charts) and functions as a very ... see all copies from $4.75! new only from $4.75!
13 view cover	Best of Bo Diddley [JCI] (1990) more music like this by Bo Diddley see all copies from $5.20! new only from $5.20!
14 view cover	Everything Is A-OK!/Astronauts Orbit Campus (1989) more music like this by The Astronauts Everything's A-O-K is a little schizophrenic, containing rock & roll ("Money," "It's So Easy"), blues ("Stormy Monday," "Big Boss Man"), pop ("Dream Lover"), R&B ("What'd I Say") and collegiate folk-pop ("If I Had a Hammer," "Shortnin' Bread"). Orbit Campus, the second half of this two-fer reissue, is the Astronauts' take on frat-rock classics, ... see all copies from $16.28! new only from $16.28!
15 view cover	Chess Rhythm & Roll (1994) more music like this by Various Artists In addition to being one of the world's premier blues imprints, Chicago-based Chess Records presented some of rock & roll's earliest participants. Chess Rhythm & Roll (1994) is a five-plus hour celebration of essential proto-rockers cut between 1947 and 1967. The four-CD assemblage is a companion to the Chess Blues (1992) box set and picks up ... see all copies from $74.99!
16 view cover	Go Bo Diddley (1959) more music like this by Bo Diddley see all copies from $200.00!
17 view cover	Rock 'N' Roll Legends (2008) more music like this by Bo Diddley With his patented "shave & a haircut-two bits" rhythm, which he actually didn't invent but did forever bestow with his name, Bo Diddley created as insular a body of work in the late 1950s and early '60s as Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, or any of the other great nascent rockers of the era. This set is a nice introduction to it all, and it includes ... see all copies from $9.24! new only from $9.24!
18 view cover	Rock and Roll at Fifty: A Galaxy of Hits from Rock's First Decade (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Shout! Factory's 2003 box set Rock and Roll at Fifty: A Galaxy of Hits from Rock's First Decade is an excellent triple-disc overview of the early days of rock & roll. Starting with Carl Perkins' "Blue Suede Shoes," the 60-track set features a little bit of everything from the late '50s and early '60s -- there's a bunch of driving rock & roll, but ... see all copies from $24.43! new only from $42.74!
19 view cover	Bo Diddley Rides Again/Bo Diddley in the Spotlight (2002) more music like this by Bo Diddley 2002 saw label BGO combine two of legendary bluesman Bo Diddley's early-'60s LPs on Bo Diddley Rides Again/Bo Diddley in the Spotlight. Blues on a scooter! Chris True, All Music Guide see all copies from $8.96! new only from $8.96!
