Another Dimension
| Bo DiddleyAnother Dimension
Another Dimension - By the end of 1970, most of Bo Diddley's income was derived from his concert work, primarily as an "oldies" act in rock 'n roll revival shows such as the Toronto concert where he shared a stage with the Plastic Ono Band. But he and Chess believed there was still a way for him to try and reach a wider, more contemporary audience. This album was the result, a valiant effort to update Bo Diddley's sound and image, somewhat in the vein of Muddy Waters' Electric Mud, only a few years later, and only slightly more successful in that quest, in the sense of yielding one lasting addition to Bo's repertory.- All Music

One song from this album has remained part of Bo's concert set for decades, however -- "I Said Shutup Woman," which has the most traditional sound of anything on Another Dimension.

Forced Exposure
2009 Like all of his other albums, this one is pure Diddley. And like all of his other albums, this one is for right now."

Slacker
The record starts off well enough, with a superb, deeply soulful cover of Al Kooper's "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know," and a decent rendition of "The Shape I'm In."
