R.I.P. LLOYD - 1959 HITS ARCHIVE: Stagger Lee - Lloyd Price (a #1 record)

Stagger Lee (Price-Logan) by Lloyd Price, orchestra and chorus conducted by Don Costa

Updating of the late 19th Century folk song “Stack-a-Lee” which told the story of a shooting that took place in 1895 St. Louis. The title has been shown in various spellings over the years. Backed by a driving Don Costa arrangement, long-time R&B artist Price was suddenly a mainstream ‘pop’ star with this million-selling #1 hit.

THE 1959 HITS ARCHIVE - here in one place, a good-quality library of original-release-version best-sellers and songs that made an impact that were either released or enjoyed a major chunk of their popularity within the calendar year 1959 (some were recorded in 1958).
