According to&nbsp;John Broven\u2019s CD sleeve notes:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHonky Tonk\u201d was conceived by Clifford Scott and Billy Butler (who played guitar in Doggett\u2019s combo) in an informal hotel room jam session before a dance in Lima, Ohio. That night, on stage and without rehearsal, Butler told Bill Doggett and drummer Shep Shepherd to \u201cjust play a shuffle\u201d and when they got through the people started to applaud. They wouldn\u2019t get off the dance floor, they just continued to stand there and applaud \u201cmore, more, more..\u201d So they did it again, played some other tunes and had an intermission, and when they came back the audience started yelling \u201cWe wanna hear that tune!\u201d And they didn\u2019t even have a name for it. When the band got back to New York, they set up a recording session with a studio down on 31st Street. The engineer turned the machine on, he goes out to take a smoke &#8211; he wasn\u2019t regulating the controls, he wasn\u2019t doing anything &#8211; and Doggett\u2019s band went on and just played. When they started to stop, he said \u201cKeep it up!\u201d, which they did and that\u2019s how it became a two-sided record. \u201cHonky Tonk\u201d, parts 1 &amp; 2, went to # 2 on the pop charts and # 1 on the R&amp;B charts in 1956. Writing credit goes to B. Doggett, S. Shepherd, C. Scott and B. Butler.<sup>2<\/sup><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The other thing that I&#8217;d like to mention, is that &#8220;Honky Tonk&#8221; was the inspiration for rock &#8216;n roll saxophonist\/author\/teacher <a href=\"http:\/\/johnlaughter.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">John Laughter<\/a>.
