5.0 out of 5 stars Bo Knows The Super Funk!
I purchased this cd without knowing the music! I liked it immediately! The whole cd is straight up live funk! Yes, this is the same Bo Diddley who invented rock and roll in the 50's! If you're a fan of funkadelic 70's grooves, you'll like it! The performance is recorded from a 1975 concert in Woodstock New York. Clean sound quality! This cd has been long out of print. If...

2.0 out of 5 stars A Few Stale Leftovers
It appears that the five overlong tracks were originally cut c. 1975 along with many other tunes, live in Woodstock, New York. A hard-to-find double album was issued in '77 and this fairly easy-to-find record came out eight years later in the U.K., with presumeably unused material from the show(s).

If your a huge fan of Bo Diddley, like myself, you got to have it! Buy it used from Amazon!

1.0 out of 5 stars Latter era Bo, none of his signature tunes..., May 5, 2008
This review is from: Live (Audio CD)
Oh why can't we have Bo Diddley's "Beach Party" on CD, recorded live at Myrtle Beach in his prime, with all those great "shave and a haircut" rhythm songs for which he is so deservedly known. Bo isn't a funk artist, he's a pioneer of rock and roll.
