The Shag is a dance style - popular in the late 50's early 60's - bands such as Maurice Williams and The Zodiacs - who did 'Stay' play songs that are fine to do the Shag to.

Barbecue Bob Hicks Smokey Hogg T-Bone Walker Catfish Keith As for those with blind @ the start of the name Blind Joe Reynolds Blind Teddy Darby Blind Blake Blind Roosevelt Graves Blind Boy Grunt AKA - Bob Dylan who sang folk songs under that name but later went on to sing a few blues tunes. Dylan also used the names Elston Gunnn, Tedham Porterhouse, Lucky Wilbury/Boo Wilbury, Elmer Johnson, Sergei Petrov, Jack Frost, Jack Fate, Robert Milkwood Thomas. The guy had more aliases than a wanted man.

The guy had more aliases than a wanted man. And of course, played a character called "Alias" in Pat Garret & Billy the Kid... namaste RR

Last call to fill in the missing posters against their anagrams, the Long Weekend will see its end.In the mean time History of Stagger Lee 1896
Home : gives a brief overview
The list : gives you 424 variations of a theme. Clicking on a version often gives at least a sample of the song
Check out Armand Manzy —a Fats Domino feel at Amateur Night at the famous Apollo Theater
History : Gives 12 pages to his-story
