Today I want to post about Paul Williams.
Paul Williams had been marketed by Teddy Reig.
Teddy Reig produced Paul’s “The Hucklebuck”.
Soon after it entered Billboard’s R&B chart in February 1949, the strutting honky-tonk blues reached No. 1, and it remained on the charts for 32 weeks.

“The Hucklebuck” was influenced by Charlie Parker’s “Now’s the Time”.
Teddy Reig said:
“The Hucklebuck” was influenced by Charlie Parker’s “Now’s the Time”.
“Hucklebuck” wasn’t just a rip-off of “Now’s the Time.”
“The one was jazz, the other was rock and roll, and we were hungry.”
