So great! I was in Jr. High when Lloyd was so very popular. Man, I loved every song he sang. Even us white kids in rural Arkansas bee bopped to those hits. He and a lot of other Black singers did more for racial tolerance than any laws ever did. If it were not for him, and many of his peers, and the help of Uncle Sam (whom I proudly served for from 66-69) this land of freedom would have never been free and never been the home of the brave. I thank God above for sending Lloyd Price and I am so grateful to have lived when he was popular. I am afraid this country is rapidly descending back to the Jim Crow days and God forgive us for that.

I had this on 45rpm as a kid and I played it so much I'm surprised my parents didn't take it away from me!! They were Rock n Rollers... I was so fortunate. Thank you Lloyd Price for all the joy you've given us through the years.

My mom played this when I was a little girl and learned it

I remember playing this & singing with my Army buddy.. Lloyd Price R.I.P.. Great job on the sax! 🧨

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉LLOYD PRICE WAS THE GREATEST ROCK N ROLL SINGER OF ALL TIME

Lloyd was in Korea in Special Services with my brother who just passed away from Covid in his late 80s, ten days ago. In the mid 1960s, my brother brought him & his big band to the Lyric Theater in Baltimore. It wasn't promoted enough & the crowd was tiny, but Lloyd and his band performed like they were in Madison Square Garden playing to a packed house! I was a wannabe drummer kid in jr. high school; I'll never forget it! They don't make 'em like THAT any more!

@@jimantle9041 Jim, I'm 73, and can you believe it? I STILL remember Lloyd's drummer's name! It was Tommy Dillion! He had a big, flashy set, played it masterfully, and seeing & hearing him that night was one more experience that made me even more determined to go on to be a drummer & eventually a muli-instrumentalist who went on to play 4 instruments well enough to earn a steady living for half a century. I have 2 rooms full of instruments, and I practice and still learn to this day! Stay well, Friend!

I remember in the 70's sitting with my brother in the back seat of my Dad's old Pontiac loving this song. R.I.P.

Sympathies to family & friends of Lloyd Price. May he rest in heavenly peace.

❤ i was 11 when this came out, it was my favorite song for a few months! Heard it on KFWB Channel 98! in L.A. Turned me into a lifelong rock and roll fan. Along with Jackie Wilson, Clyde McPhatter, Ben E. King and a few others, they were (for me) kind of the anti-Frankie Avalon contingent. But there were plenty of great white rockers around, like my all time favorite, Bobby Rydell. ALso Paul Anka, Bobby Vinton, and Bobby Vee. Plus the GREAT Freddie Cannon! Thanks for posting this and bringing back memories of a much simpler (on the surface, at least) time! 😂 And oh yeah! How could I forget Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry. And Ricky Nelson! --- Needless to say, I wasnt exactly a big Elvis fan. By '58 or so, he was just in all those goofy whitebread movies, which I loathed! - Thanks for the memories, Lloyd! 😅

Rest In Peace Mr. Price 🙏🏾

Every boy at my grade school had "Stagger Lee" written somewhere on his pee-chee or his bike or his book bag. Drove the nuns crazy.

No offense intended but Lloyd would never want to rest. He is up there and he is going to make it ROCK FOREVER!

Rest In Peace, legend!

I remember 🎶🎶

Lloyd had many hits, this one is the best.

Wow! Thx for the memories Sir Lloyd👏👏🙏

Why do we rarely see any Afro-Americans in the audience at these concerts? It is always, more or less, white audience. I love Lloyd Prices music indeed.

Sumdammhonkey........ I just got through reading Lloyd’s autobiography and if you liked him and you were white if you read that autobiography you might not like him anymore. I understand that Lloyd came from a very difficult upbringing and a very difficult time in American society but I was shocked after reading the entire autobiography that he wrote in 2014 about how anti-white he was

Mark; Thanks but I didn't read his autobiography. He was a very talented and nice man to work with. Our involvement was the music we shared and played as professionals. . In my decads of being a professional musician I've worked with many different artists with all kinds of beliefs and persuasions who come from many different backrounds That doesn't mean I do or I don't endorse their beliefs or views. What we all share is the music we create, and a mutual desire to consistenty offer the very best entertainment we can.
