Im kinda sad right now. I don’t even know who Bo Diddly is!? 😑🥹😭 Sounds like I should know. Damn, he must of been bad to the bone !! 😎 Thanks to the comments for putting me on to new shit!!! 💩
Bo Diddley is a legend!
The older guy with the chick on his arm is Willie Mosconi 19 time World Straight Pool Champion.
Bo Diddly is a legendary musician!
"The good time music with the Bo Diddley beat." He's a legend. And you're going to love listening to his guitar work.
Bo Diddly was a contemporary of Chuck Berry
George Thorogood & the Destroyers - One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer.
Yes. I was going to say that. He'd love it.
Delaware Destroyers
DOOOOOO IIIIIIITTT And play the long version with the story about getting evicted!!! 100% Chefs kiss!
Gotta do the long version!!!!
There it is! That’s the iconic song💥
1982...and that's BO DIDDLEY playing pool with him !
I was looking for this comment!!!!!!!!!
@@trailryder5813 And apparently Willie Mosconi is the bankroll. Awesome!
@@skiahh That he is though I knew the name had never seen him and honestly had forgotten. I remember when this song came out in 1982 I was 14 and then about 20 years later would learn to play the riff. OK let me rephrase I learned to play a riff that could be recognized as Bad To The Bone but no where on George's level LOL.
Bo Didley playing pool...
You need to check out Bo Didley for some great early rock ‘n’ roll
The black gentleman that he plays pool against is Ellas Otha Bates (Bo Diddley) who is one of the musical pioneers of rock and roll. He helped to inspire so many rock and roll bands of the 60's and 70's.
The man that was watching the boxing in the next room who came over and put a bet down on the pool table is William Joseph Mosconi, one of the greatest pool players ever.
Yes Indeed, I am 74.
Oh damn! I knew that old guy looked familiar! I was a devoted (not good) pool player in my youth, and Willie Mosconi was the best.
I knew about Bo Diddley, but had no idea about the rich elderly gentleman. Good to know. Thank you.
Amen!
Willie Mosconi, making a cameo, was a 15-time World Champion pool player.
"Who Do You Love" and "I Drink Alone" are two other great songs from him.
I drink alone as well. 😆❤️✌️
@@kierstenridgway4634 Holy crap, how did I forget about that one 😳? Yikes.
❤❤❤
Who Do You Love was originally, AFAIK, done by Bo Diddley back in the 1950's
Don't forget his cover of Hank, Sr.'s "Move It on Over" as well.
That old dude is Willie Musconi, the best pool player and the man with the white hat and jacket is Bo Diddley, a great blues guitar player
Willie Musconi and Minnesota Fats were the best pool matches ever. Both total legends.
Will put Efren up against them any day!
@@richardripberger2902 In between matches Willy would show off his trick shot ability's that were unbelievable.
I met Willie Mosconi and Minnesota Fats in 1972 in Hull, MA, during a pool tournament. Willie was total class.
@@brucevidito4923 Wow thats cool. did you play a game ? i would have loved to play just one game with Willy. Heck i would love to have one of the willy brand pool cues. They are nice. cant afford it though
YES! "One Bourbon, One Scotch and One Beer!" 😊
Yes
Also AL Bundy's anthem in the show Married With Children.
I had forgotten Bo Diddley was in this. He's beyond legendary. He's an icon. Ask your pops about Bo Diddley. The video is 80/81
I forgot that too. Bo Diddley. Wow! I almost wish he'd played guitar in the video. BP needs to check him out.
Also present was Willie Mosconi. He was one of the best professional pool players back in the 50s until somewhere around the 80s. I love this song.
I was 19 and that summer was epic!
The black gentleman sitting there with the rectangular guitar that stands to shoot pool is the legendary Bo Didley, a music great from back in the day.
Cigar Box Guitar ❤
Bo Diddley was one of the first rock guitar virtuosos
B Diddley
This is NOT toxic masculinity. Toxic masculinity is when some men don't like women to be strong or successful and are threatened by it. My man is a very masculine secure man. He supports me and cheers for my success and I adore him for it. We got each other's backs. He still goes out and has fun with his boys. Nothing wrong with that.
100% Nothing wrong with that. Congratulations for finding him, & him finding you. 👍❤
Exactly!
He is 74 and still touring 9 concerts scheduled in 24-25. Truly bad to the bone.
Oh my God, I'm old.
Just saw them last Friday night in San Antonio. Robert Cray Band opened the show. It was kick-ass! George can still growl it out!
When on tour they play 4-5 shows a week. Touring with John Fogerty now
From a woman, I want to tell you that I LOVE a masculine man! Bring back masculinity!! ❤
Masculinity has never left. I've never heard anyone call this song 'toxic masculinity'...until today.
I agree, sister!! 💁🏻♀️
Amen, to that!
We're still out here just getting old 😂
So you dont like boys in their 30’s wearing skinny jeans, a hello kitty backpack, and tells you their pronouns?
George Thorogood played in Dallas, TX at The Bomb Factory not too long after Stevie Ray Vaughan passed away. I was delivering propane there and went to see the owner about signing my invoice when Thorogood's tour bus pulled up. I did the best I could to wait without going fanboy while the club owner and George were shaking hands and talking. Suddenly, George Thorogood asks me directly if I was coming to that night's show? Sheepishly, I told him I couldn't because I didn't have tickets. He asked my name, then told the owner to make sure I had 6 tickets waiting for me and my friends and a table near the stage!!&! Then he asked if I liked SRV? And if I thought it might be too soon to do a tribute? A bit stunned, I assured him that I LOVE SRV and, yes, absolutely do the tribute, because this is Dallas, TX and everyone loves SRV!!&!
At the show, our table was center-right in front of the stage, the drinks were FREE all night, he told the crowd that if they didn't like the SRV tribute, that it was my fault and he pointed right me, and put on a hat that Stevie Ray had given him and he absotively hit it out of the park!!&! Best night of music I ever got to be a part of!!&! 😊
Super happy for you, my friend. I know that was one helluva great night.
Awesome shit bro! 😊
I am super jealous. You had a miracle night
The old dude with the young chic is the Great Willie Mosconi...Pool Shark extraordinaire
Hey was an amazing pool player. My dad used to watch him. Love it! Thanks for visiting this BP. I got to revisit it!! ❤
George Thorogood was one of the best concerts I have ever seen. He is still out there playing, we watched him on stage for 1 1/2 hours. Fantastic Band!
Seen him 3 times once with Buddy Guy and with Steven Miller. Always a good show!
Used to see him at The Keg and 9:30 Club in D.C., often. The best bar band along with The Nighthawks.
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer!
Now you HAVE TO find time to listen to this ICONIC blues rock song!!! Build-up is worth the payoff! 🤘🤘🤘
Absolutely! That’s my favorite song of his! 😊
1982 dude. George is crazy good. Gotta listen to "I Drink Alone!"
Bo Diddley is a legend. He was one of the earliest Rock 'N Roll artists, starting in the mid 50s, was massively influential, and has his own beat - "the Bo Diddley beat" - a syncopated beat that you will surely be familiar with. He is perhaps best known for his songs "Who Do You Love?", "Bo Diddley," and "Say Man." Buddy Holly, the Beatles, Elvis Presley, and the Rolling Stones are among the many bands who site him as an influence, and if it's not obvious, he was a huge influence to George Thorogood, who covered several of his songs.
Ps. He married in 1985 and was with her until.her untimely death from ovarian cancer in 2019. (Marla, whom he had 1 daughter with). In the 70's he played semi-pro baseball as a second baseman for a team in Delaware. In 76' he earned rookie of the year in the Roberto Clemente league.
FYI the old rich guy is none other than Willie Mosconi, a world class pool player. He was pretty famous in his day.
Yes!!! Another one I can cross off my list! 😁 Love George Thorogood! He has so many great songs and he's an amazing story teller! I drink alone, Move it on over, One bourbon one scotch one beer, Madison blues, Who do you love....The list goes on and on!!
Oh yes one bourbon, one scotch, one beer!
@@valeriepasternak1736YES!!!!!
why don't you Get a Haircut and Get a Real Job ;)
How could I forget "I Drink Alone"?! I'm so disappointed in myself.
I don't see my reply telling you to - ua-cam.com/video/oA3-InoYsWQ/v-deo.htmlsi=v-4O5QjafUjC4CBt - I don't think someone got the reference :)
The old "rich guy" is Willie Mosconi playing the "Stake horse". During the heyday of pool hustlers, he and Minnesota Fats were the kings. That was when you could only eke out a living at legitimate tournaments but make a fortune in backroom games. "The Hustler" starring Paul Newman as Fast Eddie Felson is a great movie about these times. Newman reprises the role in "The Color of Money".
One Bourbon One Scotch and One Beer.
George and the Delaware Destroyers. Let's go!
This song was my son's favorite when he was around 2. He would run around the house in his underwear, playing air guitar singing "I'm bad to the bone, daddy." I think his dad and I realized back then that we had a rock-'n'-roll-er on our hands. He's 40yrs old now and a musician and sound engineer. He knew what he wanted at age 2!!
You gotta do one bourbon, one scotch and one beer!
I agree that and I drink alone
1000% agree a much better song and story!
The live version with Elvin Bishop is epic!
Song was written in 1953 by Rudy Toombs, sung by several musicians John Lee Hooker inspired George Thorogood to cover it in 1977.
Yep John Lee Hooker sang it with canned heat.
I love that George Thorogood was vocal about the greats who inspired him. He got to play on stage with Bo Diddley and got Bo in his video. He sang Bo’s Who Do You Love with the line about “play that rock and roll music with the Bo Diddly beat.” The late 70s early 80s saw a lot of widespread recognition and main stream music recognition of Bo Diddly, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Son House, BB King, Chuck Berry and so many more. some of the great American blues and rock icons were nearing the end of their lives and careers and it was important some got long overdue recognition from a music industry and fan base that owed so much of its soul to their unique gifts.
Next MUST be One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer. It’s also epic!
"I drink alone " legendary!!!
You know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself...
Absolutely!
Wow no one recognized the one and only GREAT BO DIDLY. This ICON , ONE OF THE. GREATEST BLUES MAN IS THE ONE SITTING DOWN WITH A GUITAR AND THEN GETS UP AND PLAYS POOL WITH HIM . Here’s to BO DIDLEY ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Trust me, many ladies like me LOVE that "toxic masculinity" and you don't have to be male to smoke cigars or play guitars.
I grew up in the 70's and 80's and George Thorogood is playing in my kitchen AS WE SPEAK! Great choice for a reaction!
This 52-y/o gal 1000% agrees with you!!!! I love my hubby's "toxic masculinity!"
Definitely more exciting 🤘
Yes!! 💁🏻♀️
Over 30 years ago I was a test driver at the GM desert proving grounds in Arizona. They laid off most of the drivers during the winter since we did more hot weather testing, but early one spring i got a call asking if I'd like to drive 3rd shift that night. I was in classes and had an exam first thing the next morning, but they said it would be fine if I cut out a little early to make it to school. I get to work and they handed me the clipboard for the prototype Corvette. Not only that, but the second test it was due for was the high speed test, done on their banked 5 mile circle track. The Corvette was fitted with a decent Bose sound system and right as I was going up to 100 mph, this song came on. I'm sitting there cruising at 100 at midnight and I have Bad to the Bone at full blast on the Bose and thinking..."I'm getting paid for this!"
Some jobs are better than others. That one was awesome. :)
GEORGE. ❤❤❤❤❤ One Bourbon One Scotch and One beer must be next my friend and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️
This is Old School Blues Rock at its finest That’s what this is! George is beloved by All Ages! He has been doing this for 5 decades 😮
You know who that black guy is with the guitar? A legend.
My husband passed away 15 years ago and this was his favorite song so I had it played at his viewing because it was his favorite song. It may have seemed inappropriate to some but I played it for him. Makes me teary hearing it.
Its a shame the youngsters of today dont recognize Bo Diddley(black pool player) and Willie Mosconi(rich old dude)in the video. I get it, but those are 2 LEGENDS!! Bo is a blues legend guitarist and Willie is the greatest pool player ever!
This song holds a special place in my memories and heart. It was spring of 93, and my twin boys who would soon be 2 y/o (they were born on the 4th of July, so happy Bday boys) first heard this song. When the opening guitar rift started, my boys stood by my stearo speakers and danced for the first time, bending their knees and nodding their heads to the beat of the music. Ever since then, every time I hear it, I get a big smile on my face... 🤙
I know exactly what you mean! My middle daughter did the same thing, but it was Def Leppard's "POUR SOME SUGAR ON ME" on MTV. I miss the '80s.
Reeling’ and Rockin’, Madison Blues, Move It On Over, Who Do You Love, Howlin’ for My Baby, I’m a Steady Rollin’ Man, the list of George’s bangers is a long one!
The first real concert I ever went to was George Thorogood back in 1986 and I still say it's one of yhe best shows I've ever seen. No glitz. No pyro. Just a kick ass performance I'll never forget.
You have to listen to One Bourbon One Scotch One Beer by George ft. Elvin Bishop
❤
I've seen George Thorogood and the Destroyers a dozen times over the past 40 years. It was always a great concert. He has many great songs for you to react to.
My wife said she use to have this whole album on cassette and listened to it all the time
I saw them play at a biker rally in L.A. around the mid 80s. When someone yelled out "Bad to the Bone", he said "Shut up. I'm going to play it. And it'll be great!". It was.
In my personal hell, this song will play nonstop 24-7. 😱
In my personal hell, the song will be "POP GOES THE WEASEL". I hope to get into Heaven... wish me luck.
@@GranpaMike If you believe that Jesus Christ, the son of the ONLY true God, died for your sins, then you don't need any luck. You have Salvation.
@@vickiethompson9245 You know it, Miss Vickie! I will see you there, someday. 😃
We used to say two things about George being bad to the bone. He's thorough and Good.
Classic riff man...classic George. ☘️
they quit recording and went live only. yes thats Bo Diddley saw him live in san diego great performance.
I agree with @chelseahaley8350.....my fave of her suggestions is "I Drink Alone". but he did release a great track in 1993 called "Get a Haircut"..it's f'n amazing!!!
The song "Bad to the Bone" (made famous to non- George Thorogood fans played at the begining of the Steven King horror classic movie, Christine" is based on Muddy Waters "Mannish Boy". As mentioned Bo Diddly, has a cameo it the video, who wrote and performed another famous George Thorogood cover, "Who Do You Love?"
Another 80s classic
Saw George with ZZ Top back in the 80s and it was one helluva a show! This Is George Thorogood's sound. Every song is awesome.
saw george in '85, senior in h.s... have never seen so many bras and panties hit the stage, epic band!
6:30pm; sitting on my deck.. Still "Feels Like" 42° Celcius with the humidity.
Your set of reactions today are helping my wife and I put up with this heat tonight. We are getting a chuckle outta you tonight.
Thanks BP 😀
Have to check out One bourbon one scotch one beer and who do you love
The guy he's playing against is a rock & roll legend named Bo Diddley, and the old mob boss is Billiards Legend and World Champ Willie Marsconi. I met Bo Diddley back in 88, I think, and he gave me V.I.P. access to the concert he was in town to do.
His "ONE BOURBON, ONE SCOTCH, ONE BEER" is a classic, also.
More George!
Classic tune from 3 chord George, also need to listen to One Bourbon, One Scotch and One beer. Cameo appearances from Bo Diddley and many time pool champ Willie Masconi. (oldGuy with the cash and young girl)
Homage to Bo Diddley in the form of not only the appearance in the video, but the actual drum beat is called the "Bo Diddley Beat."
I’ve seen Thorogood twice in concert. My brother and my awesome stepdad the first time had such a good time that friends bought tickets for all of us when he came back a decade later. He was great. The second time he would stand at the edge of the stage with his arms wide, looking for praise. And he did that a few times. He’s a performer, for sure.
George Thorogood does not have a bad song in his repertoire. This song came out when I was in middle school; I STILL love it.
He does a great Cover of Hank Williams Sr. Move it on Over.
I had the coolest mom on earth back in the day! She'd buy me the latest "albums" all the time for no reason at all. I had a library of music that was the envy of my friends, lol. This is one of those albums.
Vince is pure gold, a legend. I've seen him in concert amazing! His treatment of a ballad tugs at the heart strings. He is a gifted vocalist musician and songwriter. And is a truly deserving of his place in the Eagles. This song always gets me for the line when I walked through the front door, my whole life had changed
Nobody answers when I call your name. Not because of a breakup but remembering my late sister and parents each time I come home now alone. Look at us another favourite quoted at my Dads funeral service. It's about marriage and all these yearstogetherr. My Dad and Mum nearly made it to 63 years. She joined him 17 months later. his version of Together Again was the last music I shared with my Dad. So thanks for reacting to him. Emotional for sure! CC
Totally forgot about Bo Diddley. Dude is a legend
I Drink Alone and One Bourbon, One Scotch and One Beer is worthy of a listen!
***** OhMyGreat! AND BO DIDDLEY? ? WOW! He was an Important Guitarist who Transitioned the Blues into Rock and Roll.
In 1981, the band did a tour called “Fifty States in Fifty Dates.” They played 50 straight shows, one in each state in union.
It's nice yo see Bo Diddley but the real legend in the video is Willie Mosconi. That man could shoot some pool.
Shooting pool with bo diddly
George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers is how they started
The sounds of my youth!
Smoke Stack Lightnin'
Crawlin' King Snake
Are two of my faves
I almost forgot Who Do You Love😅
One Bourbon, One Whiskey, One Beer , I Drink Alone are just a few songs by George Thorogood.
George Thorogood was amazing to see live! Amazing energy and stage performance. Definitely was next level!
I saw him at a concert in his senior years -- still wearing those shoes and still giving off the vibe. The two super fans (late middle-aged females, as was I at the time) wearing their tank tops that I'm sure came from an original concert in that era, seated in front of us were now standing and got into a shouting/pushing match because they both wanted to be closer. Omg in tears. Still Bad to the Bone!
George tore the house down when i seen him. He was so good i was exhausted when he was done he gave 500% on stage.
I just saw him last month in concert. He opened for John Fogerty. Concert was at 7. First act was Hearty Har consisting of Fogerty's sons Shane, and Tyler. They were great. Then Thorogood, and the Delaware Destroyers played for a solid hour. Fogerty didn't hit the stage until 9:30. His sons were also part of his band. I got out of there at 11:30. I paid for it the next day at work as this was a Sunday night show, but oh it was so worth it. Thorogood is 74. Fogerty is 79. They're still rocking,and totally killed it. Definitely a bucket list concert.
I saw George Thorogood & The Destroyers in Odessa, TX and in SLC, UT (Front Row and center)!
"One Bourbon, One Scotch, and One Beer" is a must listen from them
Who Do You Love, One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer are two of his best! He's also fantastic live!!! Great fun watching these songs in person!
George is one of my favorite musicians!!! He has tons of great tunes!! He also still tours. I believe his daughter plays in his band now. She's a great guitarist too.
The older gentleman that put down the money was Willie Mosconi as truely great player from the 1960's. His most famous opponent was playing Minnesota Fats
George, his band, and his crew were absolute badasses! In 1981 they did the 50/50 tour and performed 50 shows in 50 states... IN 50 DAYS! You've toured... just try to imagine pulling that off.
Saw George and The Destroyers in '82 at Charlie Daniels' Volunteer Jam. During his solo he jumped off the stage and kept on playing as he went backstage and came back on stage on the other side. Also saw Stevie Ray Vaughn in '84 at the Volunteer Jam. It was the 1st time he had played in Nashville.
I saw George and the Doobie Brothers at Dodger Stadium, Apparenty, George played AAA baseball. He said he alwys wanted to run the bases at Dodger Stadium. So, he did. Rounded third, took off his watch and thru it into the crowd...Great fun! Rock on, fro m LA
This is their sound! It's in all their songs! You're gonna have fun checking out the rest of their stuff!
That is Bo Diddly playing pool with him, and that is Willie Mosconi being led in by the Hottie. Two awesome cameo appearances!
You got to deep dive George T. I was lucky enough to see him in a small venue. I will never forget it! Best show ever.....
They were originally George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers since they came from Delaware. They used to play at the Stone Balloon in Newark. The University of Delaware students would go to see them.
Bo Diddley, one of Georges big influences --- Willie Mosconi, widely considered one of the greatest pool players of all time. Great video to go along with a great song.
I’m 70 and I fell in love with this song when I first heard it , I think in the movie “ Christine “ based on the book by Stephen King . Love all his music. This was the 80’s 😊
To paraphrase “it’s got a great beat you can run to” it also works as a call/ response Airborne Jody.
#HOG in the house. First off congrats and how is the wife and family? Next, I had the pleasure and honor to see George in the band in 82 or 83, being front band for the Rolling Stones in Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, AZ. They kicked the Stones ass, and the sax player was outta this world. George has several other notable songs, I DRINK ALONE, ONE WHISKEY, ONE BOURBON AND 1 BEER and several others. He is an American Indian and a great musician and performer.
This song reminds me a lot of my days as a young adult. My friends and I would go to the local "dive", drink beer and play pool. I played the best game of my life that night by clearing the table, the other guy never got a chance to shoot. This song was playing on the juke box while I was clearing the table, first and last time I've ever done that.
The man shooting pool with George Thorogood is none other than rock legend Bo Diddley, who was a big inspiration for George. When he opens his guitar case, the picture inside is Bo Diddley as a young man
George and the Band. Never missed a concert with him or Dwight Yoakam since the 1980s when they arrived out West. George danced his heart out in the early days. George said he's going on the road soon.
I saw George Thorogood and the Destroyers. They opened for The Pretenders...who then opened for U2. It was at the Oakland Coliseum. U2 opened with: 'Where The Streets Have No Name'...The Bass was phenomenal.
Had the honor of seeing George a few times in concert in Halifax NS in the 80's...came out for the encore and wouldn't stop playing ...they had to shut the power down!
Saw him in concert in the 80’s and it was a blast. Love your reactions.
Met Bo Diddley once in Miami in the late 80's when he was hanging out with Ron Wood. Shook his hand and told him was a great inspiration to me. A real nice guy who enjoyed a little chit chat. Ron Wood mixed the drinks as we chatted in his club he had at the time on Miami Beach, "Woody's On The Beach"
He is amazing in concert. I’ve seen him like nine times. I got tickets to go see him in August. actually met him backstage once he plays the best blues rock out there. He’s an amazing slide guitar player you go to his concert. He only plays for like an hour and a half plays 15 to 18 songs no ballads all ball through the wall rock songs.😊
