Thank you SO much for having one of the ONLY songs from Four Chords here! I love the original AND remake! Huey does it justice! Remember when Lloyd Price came to his PBS Special? It was amazing! Please if you have anymore from that album, feel free to share! That one's hard to find on the tube! :)

Actually this was a Lloyd Prices song that might have been covered by Bill Haley of which I am uncertain.I however am certain this was a Lloyd Price who took this top 10 on mainstream top 40 as well as # 1 on the R & b charts.The Price version was originally STAG O LEE and then retitled STAGGER LEE'

Yes,Bill recorded "Stagger Lee" but it was not a hit for him. It was written by Lloyd Price who also had hit with it.

Lloyd Price didn't write it, nor did he record the original version. On August 21, 1897 the earliest known reference to the song appears in the Kansas City Leavenworth Herald:"It is understood that Prof. Charlie Lee, the piano thumper, will play 'Stack-a-Lee' in variations at the K. C. Negro Press association." In 1923, the first two recordings of the song. Fred Waring's Pennsylvanians make it a hit record. Frank Westphal & His Regal Novelty Orchestra record it as a jazz instrumental on the 18th of October in Chicago.

I really like the pacific gas and electric version (Stagolee). Stagger Lee is the most bad ass dude ever. He would kick Bad Bad Leroy Browns ass!

I have to agree that none of these singers compare to Lloy Price. The others make the song sound so sterile, no soul, very plain. This version leaves me saying "Oh that was quite pleasant". Not "WoW" like this song should make ya feel.

I have to concur. The 1st time I heard Price's version I felt like I KNEW Stagger Lee and Billy.
