Album notes
THE CHESS BOX includes 45 tracks taken from the original master tapes. Many of the tracks are either rare or previously unreleased.
Everyone knows the Bo Diddley beat, a tribal thump that's been one of the bedrock rhythms of rock & roll since Diddley unleashed it in his 1955 namesake single. But that's only the tip of the iceberg. With his outrageous sense of style, highly distorted electric guitar, boastful shout/croon, and hard-grooving, full-tilt band (featuring Jerome Green's ubiquitous maracas), Diddley, in many ways, helped define rock & roll.
THE CHESS BOX is as comprehensive an overview of Diddley's work as one is likely to find. The opening sequence alone is enough to persuade; the self-mythologizing "Bo Diddley," bluesy "I'm a Man," and downright scary "Who Do You Love" lay down the fundaments of rock music. Over the rest of the two-disc, 45-track set, which follows the artist's tenure at Chess right up to 1969, Diddley shifts from sly shuffles to soulful ballads to all-out rave-ups. In short, this is music that belongs in any rock & roller's library.

Editorial reviews
Highly Recommended - ...while there's a copious amount of the Bo Diddley rhythm, it's also easy to hear his beautiful voice, careful guitar playing and often brilliant songwriting.
New York Times  (11/04/1990)

...In the music of Bo Diddley can be heard the emotional power of the blues, the percussion of the Caribbean, and the transcendent rhythmic authority of Africa. Of all the early rockers, Bo Diddley is the deepest.
Living Blues  (01/01/1991)

Entertainment Weekly Rating: A-

Goldmine Highly Recommended - ..he is finally getting the recognition he deserves.
