Bo Diddley


Maureen Tucker
Bo Diddley

This is Maureen “Moe” Tucker, the Velvet Underground’s drummer doing Bo Diddley, first track from her "Playin’ Possum" album (recorded, mixed and mastered in Phoenix, Arizona in 1981)

After the Velvets broke up, Maureen moved to Texas and got a job at Wal-Mart, and raised her large family. She finally went back to music in 1981, when she recorded her first album in her living room (“between diaper changes”, she says) over a period of six months, overdubbing every instrument.
