True Crime Blues, Pt.1-Stagolee
43 min•3 februari 2025
Blues You Should Know goes True Crime! Two programs about actual crimes enshrined in the blues. Program #1 focuses on a single crime: the murder of William Lyons by "Stag" Lee Shelton, in St. Louis, MO, on Christmas 1895. How is it that a 130 year-old crime has become so embedded in our national zeitgeist? Over 502 different performers have recorded songs about “Stagolee”. Obviously, we won’t play all of them but we’ll tell the real story of what happened as opposed to some of the fanciful versions that have appeared in song over the years. Available on your favorite podcast platform and always free.
