Billy Haley? You're kidding right?

Nice!

@danz4440 AGREED!!! Southside does a wonderful cover of it!!!!

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.

Southgside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes do the best live version

Are you people arguing about which blue-eye-soul cover is the best? These artists are to be commended for honoring great music; but they are, at best, a shadow of the Blues masters.
Stagger Lee is the embodiment of the bad-ass black hoodlum folk hero. You need to go back to Lloy Price, Wilson Picket, or Mississippi John Hurt to get the full emotion. And read the back story of the real murder.
