How cool is this...

Did you know that McComb, Mississippi born Bo Diddley's hat was in the collection of the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture?

"Among the fathers of rock ’n’ roll, Bo Diddley popularized one of the genre’s signature beats: three strokes/rest/two strokes. From his beat to his wild dance moves to his homemade square-shaped guitar, Diddley was truly his own performer. Incorporating African rhythms and the blues with his unique guitar strokes, Diddley helped shape rock ’n’ roll for generations of musicians after him, including the Rolling Stones. He sported this black felt hat throughout the last 15 years of his career and during his last performance, in 2007." – Katie Nodjimbadem
