Honky Tonk: The Very Best of Bill Doggett

Honky Tonk: The Very Best of Bill Doggett

Bill Doggett will forever by remembered for what is perhaps the instrumental hit of the 1950s, "Honky Tonk." Doggett probably did more to popularize the organ as an instrument in rock and pop than any other artist. Before striking out on his own in 1951, Doggett worked with the likes of Jimmy Mundy, Lucky Millinder, the Ink Spots, Lionel Hampton and Louis Jordan (he replaced Wild Bill Davis in Tympani Five). The tracks in this collection are the best of the recordings that he made for the King record label between the years 1954 and 1959 -- and his biggest singles ("Honky Tonk," "Slow Walk," "Ram-Bunk-Shush" and "Hold It").
