Mainsqueeze était en fait le backing band de Bo Diddley qui tourna dans les années 80. Ils n'ont publié à ma connaissance que deux albums live, l'un en 1983 intitulé Live at Ronnie Scott's Club mais sans Bo Diddley et l'un avec lui en 1986, Hey...Bo Diddley In Concert. Il est clair que le musicien le plus connu outre Bo Diddley était sans nul doute Eric Bell, premier guitariste de Thin Lizzy :
