I did a search for you. This is what I found out. Bo Diddley re-recorded 2 songs at Bill Putnam's Universal Recording Studio at 111 E. Ontario in Chicago, IL. That studio has long since changed hands. I don't know if it still exists.

The reference to Archer, Fl came about because Bill Putnam once lived there. I am in Fl and there is no info on Bo Diddley or Bill Putnam.

I am sorry if this is not what you were hoping for but I don't think you "need" to go to Archer.

I hope this helps.

Lisa

Thanks, but i reed this om the internet about Diddley........

Later years: Like many early rockers, Bo's career was cut short by the success of the British Invasion groups, though they also embraced him as a major influence. Although Bo remains a popular live act to this day, his record sales never truly recovered from the changing musical tastes of the Sixties; business practices of the time also ensured that he was not properly paid for his songwriting and recording efforts. At this writing, he lives in Archer, Florida and records in his own nearby studio.

This is a updated last this year.....

It seems you are right but I don't have more info. Try allexperts.com and ask your question. They seem to know more.

Good Luck

Mr. Bo Diddley will be 79 on December 30 of this year.

Here's his official website. You can send him a birthday wish:

It has been almost 8 years since the OP has logged in to C-D. This is a very old thread.

And Bo Diddley has been dead for 7 years. Other than those minor details, a good thread!
