From the wiki: “The song was based on a guitar riff by Jody Williams. The song was written by Bo Diddley under the name of his wife at the time, Ethel Smith. The first recorded version of ‘Love Is Strange’ was performed by Diddley, who completed it in a session on May 24, 1956 with Williams on lead guitar. However, Diddley’s version was not released until its appearance in 2007 on I’m a Man: The Chess Masters, 1955-1958.
