7Inch on Sleazy Records.
This second volume of white kids seduced by the magic of black rock'n'roll brings us four examples of how Bo Diddley's jungle beat possessed the spirits of white people.
Jo Ann & Troy were actually singer Jo Ann Campbell and, her then husband, songwriter and guitarist Troy Seals, attacking Uncle Bo's Who Do You Love? in 1963, halfway between twist and early soul. Side A is completed with Bobby Crown & the Kapers, well known in the rockabilly world for their late 50s recordings. In 1966 they did a tremendous over of Diddle-Daddy that could perfectly well have been signed by Bo himself.
The B-side opens with Jim Doval & The Gauchos and their garage tasted cover of Mama, Keep Your Big Mouth Shut, and closes at Goldband Records, Louisiana, where blacks and whites recorded with the same feelin'. There Dell Mack recorded one of the most powerful and wild versions of Bo Diddley's classic You Can't Judge A Book By The Cover.
Again, black magic was irresistible for young white dudes
