Bo Diddley's self-titled song introduced the distinctive rhythmic pattern that came to be called the Bo Diddley beat. The track achieved significant chart success, reaching the top of the Billboard R&B chart for a two-week period in 1955. The song has since been included on numerous compilation albums released by the artist across different decades, and a cover version by Buddy Holly later achieved posthumous commercial success in the UK charts.
