The Ed Sullivan Show vid was a "heart-stopper!"

I saw it first thing this morning and it made my strong cup of java seem pale!

Thanks!!

It's kind of interesting that some of them aren't shuffles at all.
I can see how some might think that Harlem Shuffle is a shuffle, but it ain't

Naming the best ever is impossible, but the nice shuffle groove makes this song great in my book:

That's kinda what I meant.

Hard to top the Roseanna shuffle by Jeff Porcaro. In this youtube video, Jeff says he stole a combination of shuffles from Jon Bonham and Bernard Purdy to come up with the Roseanna shuffle. Jeff Porcaro is my all time favorite drummer. He has played with so many great artists in so many genres, not to mention his work as a founding member of Toto. Worth 4 minutes of your time to check this out.

In your opinion, what is the coolest / best / hip-est (is that a word?) shuffle ever. I know there's several different types. And I know Howlin' Wolf did some of the coolest.

But what is your choice and why?

Maybe I need to look up the definition of shuffle

Just another example of Jeff Porcaro's incredible talent!

Another version of Harlem Shuffle.

To my taste this version by the Stones is the one that has more soul :
