Stagger Lee

Mark "Porkchop" Holder's rendition of Stagger Lee leans heavily into gritty, Southern blues rock. Known for his slide guitar work and raw, unfiltered sound, Holder brings an intense, almost ominous vibe to the classic murder ballad. His approach typically adds a sense of urgency and darkness to the song, staying true to the tale's outlaw roots while infusing it with heavy guitar riffs and a touch of psychedelia. This version emphasizes the storytelling in a way that resonates with fans of both traditional blues and more modern, garage-rock inspired sounds.
