A prime example of a Jerry Garcia & Robert Hunter rewrite off of an American traditional song, theme or title, this one the story of 'Stagger Lee,' who shot a man over a Stetson hat. The incident unfolded on Christmas night of 1895 but doesn't mention the eponymous character would die in jail by 1912. True life blues.
I admire how the different chord changes and scheme departs from the more straight bluesy versions without losing any of its timelessness?
