George Thorogood And The Destroyers – Bad To The Bone

“Bad to the Bone” is a song by George Thorogood and the Destroyers, released in 1982 on the album of the same title. While it was not widely popular during its initial release, its video made recurrent appearances on the nascent MTV, created a year before.

This is based on the Bo Diddley blues song “I’m A Man.” Thorogood is influenced by the blues, and Diddley is one of his heroes. Thorogood’s version has a much heavier guitar sound, which replaces the harmonica in Diddley’s recording. Both songs are full of swagger, with the singers exuding lots of testosterone.
