Monz Does Number Two!

Several months ago the Music Editor set off on a research quest (the best kind of quest!). His purpose: to right a grave wrong. No, not the lack of recognition of Monz' musical might (Monz needs to getting working on that MySpace page!) but another neglected musical genius. Consider Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Bo Diddley. He is best remembered for the "Bo Diddley Beat" -- a shuffly-drum version of "shave and a haircut -- two bits!" -- which he incorporated in many of his songs. Yet what of the man who invented an even more complex, yet every bit the hitmaking, beat? One that reached Numero Uno on the pop charts? (Here's a hint: it went "De-de-duh De-de-duh Dut! (short pause) Crank Crank." Who had a visionary musical life philosophy? Who wrote poignant existential love songs that could set you a-humming and break your heart at the same time? The ME will answer this...Monday! We hate to make you wait, but we used up all our time looking up the lunch Monz' phoned-in: a Jimmy John's #2 with peppers and no mayo. A JJ2 is...roast beef!
