Diddley's influence on rock & roll is inestimable, from the off-kilter rhythmic thump of "Pretty Thing" to his revved-up take on singing the blues. This album -- a repackaging of his first two records -- has nearly all of his important singles, including "I'm a Man" and "Who Do You Love?"

Total album sales: Under 500,000

Peak chart position: N/A

Next: Bobby Bland
