Bakers Dozen MUSIC Game

Full disclosure

New guy started a whole new list of 7 and posted it instead of posting number 12, other guy kept it going, THEN 'one of the big dawgs' DID TOO! I flipped my BD shit, tried to start a new BD based on a technicality...We talked it out, adjusted and moved on.

I did delete parts of posts but no whole post was deleted in the making of this catastrophe. I chalk it up to poor reply skills *cough cough* for some and me being a douche. Nothing new to see here. Oh and @TARTARA was as classy as ever.

What the hell?! Why would you be sorry? lolllll...Nothing serious happened last night...

Don't take anything I'm doing seriously, ever. Unless it's bashing other douchers, or giving you praise- then I'm dead serious. This is the baker's dozen, the greatest Jukebox thread known to mankind!
This is the real problem ,
i end up "holding back"
a thread like this for almost one day !

My bad !

We could almost get to 13 with just versions of Stagger Lee
Yes, it's such a versatile song.

Arose on account of a true story about the murder of Billy Lyons by 'Stag' Lee Shelton at Christmas 1895 in St. Louis. They were prominent business rivals with underworld ties. Got into a dispute at a bar. Lyons took Shelton's Stetson hat. Shelton shot Lyons, recovered his hat and left. Lyons died and Shelton was convicted of the murder in 1897. Later got paroled, sent back for assault & battery and died in prison. Cruel old Stagger Lee.

The crime quickly entered into American folklore and became the subject of song, as well as folktales and toasts. The song's title comes from Shelton's nickname—Stag Lee or Stack Lee. The name was quickly corrupted in the folk tradition; early versions were called "Stack-a-Lee" and "Stacker Lee"; "Stagolee" and "Stagger Lee" also became common. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stagger_Lee

First version I heard was an acoustic blues by Taj Mahal. Learned of the folklore in Greil Marcus' book Mystery Train. Notable variations by Sly Stone, reggae version by the Rulers where ole Stagger is the hero, and the Clash ('Wrong'Em Boyo'). Acoustic versions by folk & blues singers like Lloyd Price, Mississippi John Hurt, Bobby D. et. al. Profane versions by the Grateful Dead ('she shot him in the balls'), Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds and Josh Ritter ('Folk Bloodbath').

Love all the different versions.
