matrix: EMERGENCY001 01 MAGIC DIRT EP
released November 2006
Strictly limited 5 track EP feat. Nick Cave & Scientists covers & 2 originals previously unreleased
- 'Limited edition EP given away at gigs on the 2006 tour. Sold at select independent music stores'
3.: "Stagger Lee", aka "Stagolee", "Stackerlee", "Stack O'Lee", "Stack-a-Lee", "Stackalee" and several other variants
- blues folk song based on the murder of William "Billy" Lyons by Stagger Lee Shelton. The version recorded by Mississippi John Hurt in 1928 is considered by some commentators to be definitive, containing as it does all of the elements that appear in other versions.
- A cover with different lyrics was a chart hit for Lloyd Price in 1959; Dick Clark felt that the original tale of murder was too morbid for his American Bandstand audience, and insisted that they be changed to eliminate the murder. In this version, the subject was changed from gambling to fighting over a woman, and instead of a murder, the two yelled at each other, and made up the next day. However, it was the original, unbowdlerized, version of Lloyd's performance that reached #1 on Billboard's Hot 100 and was ranked #456 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
- The first published version of the song was by folklorist John Lomax in 1910.
- A cover with different lyrics was a chart hit for Lloyd Price in 1959
