Kliban by B. Kliban for September 11, 2020

He’d rather drink muddy wine.

….and his “Bo.”

…..and all that jazz!

What’s more, his fiddle’s name is Lucille.

But can he replace a broken string in the middle of a song and not miss a note? Bo could!

Bow Diddley got a nanny goat …

Itzhak Diddley was a gunslinger

“Hey, Bo Diddley!”

I wonder how many people have seen both Itzhak Perlman and Bo Diddley in concert. At least one. Me. Both were wonderful.

Did not know that was “Bo’s” real name. I’m sure I would have remembered if I had seen him tap-dancing and playing an electric violin at the same time.

Itzhak Jangles?

“Hey diddle diddle, I’ll play my fiddle;

Ain’t got nothing to lose.

Roll over, Beethoven, and tell Tchaikovsky the news."

Itzhak knows how to diddle with his fiddle, but Bo knows diddly about fiddling with itz!

Cigar Box Fiddle? Oh yes. Even better was my cigar box 5-string!

Got nuthin on Seasick Steve ;)

Performing his hit song, “Whom Do You Love?”
