Foghat were a bit like Quo, with lots of shuffles in their repertoire. Here's one from 1974, enhanced by Rod Price's fantastic slide guitar work.

That Magnum track has the same galloping rhythm as Slade's 'Run Runaway'...
So, the thing is, are they fast shuffles or would musicologists call them something else?

Is 'Sweet Home Chicago', first recorded by Robert Johnson in 1936, the grand-daddy of all shuffle songs? Has to come close I'd say. Bit late to this thread, but what a song this is! Where would we be without Robert Johnson? A real ground zero moment. And he could play that guitar thing!

Couldn't find an Eagles shuffle (didn't look too hard, mind), so Joe Walsh will have to do instead...
