Nightrain: Shortly before leaving school he formed his first group, a trio named The Hipsters, later known as The Langley Avenue Jive Cats, after the                       Chicago street where he lived. Bo pursued a variety of low paid occupations including truck driving, building site work and boxing, playing                         locally with his group to supplement his income. Around this time he married his first wife Louise Woolingham, but the marriage did not                survive. A year later, he married Ethel "Tootsie" Smith, who bore Daughter Evelyn Tanya and son Ellas Anthony McDaniel.

Nightrain: How is that???
BoDiddley: Alan Freed got songwriting credit because that is how payola worked
