Bo Diddley Rides Again was a UK only release to coincide with the performer's 1963 British tour, which contained tracks from earlier US albums. It uses the same cover picture as the 1960 US LP Have Guitar Will Travel. (UK:19)

"For those who want to hear Bo in his artistic rockin' blues element, this is perfect."

"The music is energetic jumpin' rockin' blues with Diddley's trademark vocals and rhythmic guitar."

"Bo Diddley Rides Again, mixes tracks of the 50s from different US LPs."

"Bo Diddley in fact became a big cult figure in the British beat boom of 1963-64, long after he had been established as a rock' n' roll/rhythm & blues star in the USA."

"He influenced British groups like The Rolling Stones, and this was the Bo Diddley music they were listening to in their formative years."
