BILL DOGGETT HONKY TONK POPCORN STEREO POLYDOR RECORDS LIMITED EDITION PRESSING RE-ISSUE. THIS TITLE WAS PRESSED BEFORE BAR CODES WERE EVER PLACED ON VINYL LPS.

o.k. Let me be clear about this... not every track on this album is a winner... but most are... and the ones that are SMOKE, ridiculously.

A bit of historical background...
Bill Doggett in many ways was a fore bearer of the music that would come to evolve within the JB bag...
He was a pianist for Louis Jordan -- James Brown's idol...
Jordan inspired Doggett to make the leap to Hammond...
Doggett would hit paydirt in 1957 with a hit recording of HONKY TONK that, simply speaking, wouldn't leave the charts...
Jimmy Smith, of course would emerge that same year, however, Doggett and McGriff's grooves would dominate the juke boxes, even
later absorbing the sounds of JB himself.
At the same time, JB would dabble on Hammond, mainly for various recordings he'd do on the SMASH label.

By 1969, King records was all about Hal Neely and JB...

No doubt, having tracks produced by James Brown would definitely have helped Doggett's career -- who by then, like Ballard and many of his label mates
were becoming old "old school" as the JB generation arose.

Alas, this gem...

It consists of three types of tracks... A number of JB type heavy booty shaking funk numbers, a few throw-aways, but mostly, high energy MOD/'60s GO GO inflected juke box "shake your tail feather" type singles.
HONKY TONK POPCORN, for example, is simply a hard groove funk loop, with a bluesy rock and roll guitar wailing out over the pocket. HONKY TONK in contrast has Doggett up front.

"Side 2" is when it picks up... You have diddies like MAD -- which is not only exciting, groovy and energetic (you can imagine the go go dancers in the cages dancing the Watusi) -- is also
catchy and off center-

1. Honky Tonk 2. Twenty Five Miles 3. Honky Tonk Popcorn 4. Slippin' In 5. Cozy Corner 6. Corner Pocket 7. Make Your Move 8. After Lunch 9. Mad 10. A Doozy 11. Mr. Pitiful

12. Turnabout
