On 11/20/55 Bo Diddley became the 1st Rock'n'Roll artist banned from the Ed Sullivan show for life. Once in studio, Ed told Bo no one wanted to hear his music & to play a different song. Disappointed and insulted, Bo agreed, but then played his self-titled song, "Bo Diddley." It was an instant hit!
