Bo Diddley -- "Roadrunner"

Not the most representative of Bo Diddley tracks, but one of his most endearing.  It's a bit of a novelty number, but there's just a bit of a snarl in that guitar shuffle to give it a distinctive edge. This one works great in a playlist that features The Modern Lovers song of the same title and The Sex Pistols' version of the same.  The three together pretty much give you a history of rock and roll music.
