Who Do You Love? (2005 Film) - Recognition and Influence

Recognition and Influence

In 2004, Rolling Stone magazine ranked Bo Diddley's original song at #133 on their list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time", noting that "who do" is a homonym of "hoodoo". A Grammy Hall of Fame Award followed in 2010.

"Who Do You Love?" has been interpreted and recorded by numerous musicians. A proto-psychedelic version by the Misunderstood was recorded in 1966 and released as the B-side to "I Can Take You to the Sun" on Fontana Records; guitarist Glenn Ross Campbell later reworked "Who Do You Love" in his later band Juicy Lucy, which reached #14 in the UK record chart. A short list of other recordings include those by the Woolies, Tom Rush, Brownsville Station, the Doors, Carlos Santana, Blues Project, Blues Magoos, Roy Head, and John Hammond Jr.

Famous quotes containing the words recognition and/or influence:

    The person who designed a robot that could act and think as well as your four-year-old would deserve a Nobel Prize. But there is no public recognition for bringing up several truly human beings.
    C. John Sommerville (20th century)

    If the dignity as well as the prestige and influence of the United States are not to be wholly sacrificed, we must protect those who, in foreign ports, display the flag or wear the colors of this Government against insult, brutality, and death, inflicted in resentment of the acts of their Government, and not for any fault of their own.
    Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
