Bo Diddley authenticity?

Hi Everyone,

I was considering buying this Bo Diddley signed LP but thought I would run it past the brilliant blues collectors here first. I'm a bit unsure on it myself...

Thanks for having a look in advance!

Just seen that the same seller has quite a few other LPs signed... Here's two more Bo Diddley's...

Those are from the same seller?

All from the same seller indeed Michael - rmutt99 on eBay. They have quite a few other music autographs as well that might be worth a look.

Thanks for the example, you've convinced me! I've been looking for a Bo Diddley for a while and this is the first one I've seen that looks relatively affordable. That's probably due to me being so specific over which album I want signed though.

Thanks! I'm trying to get the four blues "London Sessions" LPs signed and I think Bo Diddley should be easiest. I've got Chuck Berry, Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf to go yet though!

Thanks Alexandre and Steve for those. The thing that bothers me about this one (and the other two they are selling) is the slightly strange "y" at the end of the signature. It's consistent throughout the three they are selling but doesn't seem to match up with any other exemplars I've seen. It seems a bit too controlled for Bo's signature.
