Шаблон:Infobox album Have Guitar Will Travel is the third studio album by rock and roll musician Bo Diddley. It was released on the Checker Records label in 1960.

The front cover of Diddley's album displays a white calling card similar to that which Richard Boone's Have Gun – Will Travel character Paladin carried and gave out on every episode of the series. The location was Livingston Street, Brooklyn, New York City[1]

History

The song "Cops and Robbers" was released as an A-side of Checker single #850 in November 1956;[2] the B-side "Down Home Special" did not appear on this album. The song "Mona (I Need You Baby)" was released as the B-side to "Hey! Bo Diddley" in October 1957, the A-side appearing on the album Bo Diddley in 1958. "Say Man, Back Again" was released as a single in November 1959.[3] The rest of the songs were album-only releases, although an edited version of "She's Alright", lacking vocal overdubs, had appeared as the B-side of "Say Man, Back Again."
