“Despite general public recognition of his contributions to rock and roll, and acknowledgments from high-profile players such as the Rolling Stones and Bruce Springsteen, Diddley's innovative sound and string of hits generated few financial rewards for the musician…Because he received inadequate compensation for his work, Diddley had to maintain an active touring schedule to support himself, despite health problems” (Contemporary Black Biography).
