		Emerging in the early '50s, Young was one of the most popular honky tonkers to appear in the wake of Hank Williams' death, partially because he was able to smooth out some of the grittiest elements of his music.
		Nevertheless, he could sing pure honky tonk with the best of them, and his hardest country was made tougher by the addition of a drum kit.
		At a time when most of her contemporaries were heading down the country-pop route, Jean Shepard was one of the few female honky tonk singers to stay true to the genre in the '50s and '60s.

		Austin's Honky have recently released their powerhouse third full-length CD, replete with all the heavy riffs and house thumping bass of Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler, respectively.
		Honky is straight hardcore rock with lots of distortion on the guitar and bass notes guaranteed to knock your pictures off the wall.
		Bass player Jeff Pinkus is formerly of The Butthole Surfers, but the five years playing in Honky has successfully distanced him from the experimental spitting and noise of that Austin band.

	Honky
		Honky's stories--some light-hearted, some painful--show how Conley, now 31, came to recognize what he, as an innocent young baby-snatcher, could not have grasped: that American society is in many ways organized around differences of race and class."--Time Out New York
		A brilliant case study for illuminating the larger issues of inequality in American society, Honky brings us to a deeper understanding of the privilege of whiteness, the social construction of race, the power of education, and the challenges of inner-city life.
		Conley's father, a struggling artist, and his mother, an aspiring writer, joined Manhattan's bohemian subculture in the late 1960s, living on food stamps and raising their family in a housing project.

	Honky - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Honky, Honkey or Honkie is an American racial slur for a Caucasian, usually applied to males.
		The word "honky" as a pejorative for caucasians comes from "bohunk" and "hunky".
		Honky, was later adopted as a pejorative meaning white, in 1967 by fl militants within SNCC seeking a rebuttal for the term nigger.

	Tolerance.org: Honky Wanna Cracker?
		The lack of symmetry between a word like honky and a slur such as "nigger" was made readily apparent in an old Saturday Night Live skit, with Chevy Chase and Richard Pryor.
		As a white person I always saw the term honky, or cracker for that matter, as a sign of just how much more potent white racism was than any variation on the same theme practiced by the fl or brown.
		The day that someone produces a newspaper ad that reads, "Twenty honkies for sale today: good condition, best offer accepted," or "Cracker to be lynched tonight: whistled at fl woman," then perhaps I'll see the equivalence of these slurs with the more common type to which we've grown accustomed.

	The Straight Dope: What's the origin of "honky"? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Honky comes from bohunk and hunky, derogatory terms for Bohemian, Hungarian, and Polish immigrants that came into use around the turn of the century.
		Your source for the origin of honky only gave you half the story.
		Another probable etymon for honky, cited by David Dalby in his "African Element in American English" (to be found in my Rappin' and Stylin' Out: Communication in Urban Black America) is the Wolof term honq, "red, pink," a term frequently used in to describe white men in African languages.

		In whichever format we may be performing at the time, the music still falls into the basic category of "Honky Tonk".
		Well, as I understand it, honky tonks were pretty much indigenous to the gulf coast of Texas.
		One of the key things that defines a honky tonk is that you're likely to hear most any style of music there, rangin' from blues and rock, to country, to well...whatever.

	Honky Chateau by Elton John CD
		By the time Elton John went to France to cut HONKY CHATEAU in 1972, he had already become the first act since the Beatles to land four albums in the American Top 10 simultaneously.
		The results were successful, as the nonsensical "Honky Cat" and the Bowie-inspired "Rocket Man" became John's first Top 10 hits since the release of "Your Song" two years prior.
		The John/Bernie Taupin partnership also yielded a number of songs with vivid imagery, including the Civil War-era American South of "Slave" and a front-row pew before a gospel choir in the inspirational "Salvation." Pound for pound, HONKY CHATEAU may be one the strongest, most consistent, and most pleasurable records in the mammoth John discography.

	Roughstock's History of Country Music - Honky Tonk Music
		Perhaps no other style of country music has had a greater influence on today's artists than the style known as Honky Tonk.
		Honky Tonk music embodied the spirit of dancing and drinking, and of loving and then losing the one you love.
		Its greatest practitioners owe their singing style to Jimmie Rodgers and much of the music to the steel guitar and drums of Bob Wills and Western Swing.

	The Mavens' Word of the Day (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Honky in the sense 'a white person' is almost certainly a pronunciation variant of hunky, an earlier derisive term meaning 'a person of Central or Eastern European ancestry'.
		This hunky, which is first attested around the turn of the century, is probably from Hung(arian), perhaps influenced by hunk in the sense 'a heavy-set, dull fellow'.
		There are isolated Black English examples of both honky and hunky in the sense 'white person' from the mid 1940s, but honky does not become common until the late 1960s.

	The Official Honky Web Site--Press
		The first thing you see on the flyer for the Honky show at the Funhouse is what’s in parentheses: "(J.D. Pinkus of Butthole Surfers)." "If people come to see a psychedelic show, they’re definitely going to leave having seen something different," says the parenthetical Pinkus of his new band.
		In their own words, Honky plays "dirty white boy rock’n’roll," and as if to prove their point, they finished with a cover of Skynyrd’s "Simple Man" featuring Dixie Witch drummer, Trinidad, on the skins and Honky’s timekeeper on the mic.
		At times it seems the burgeoning mix-master DJ culture is poised to absorb, like a great, sucking fl hole, the entire context for rabble-rousing, heavy-rock lowlifes, but the arrival of Honky comes as a welcome slap in the face of canned music and its robotic consumers.

		In a more enlightened age where interracial relationships are widely accepted, films like "Honky" are pretty much abandoned by relevance and exist primarily as a time capsule.
		This is, however, a fairly decent 20th century American love story wherein the all-American blond-haired white boy finds himself happily in the arms of a young ebony goddess.

		This bombastic debut album from New York cartoon rockers Honky Toast wants to be a ready-made camp classic -- sort of the aural equivalent of a blaxploitation flick.
		Lead singer Eric J. Toast is indeed a honky who sounds like Steven Tyler trying to talk ghetto (check out "I Wanna Be on Welfare").
		Musically, the other Toastees follow tracks so worn that they're ruts: Guitarist Richard Croissant mimics Johnny Thunders' protopunk guitar down to the opiated solos; bassist EZ Bake slogs through blues, funk and metal templates, leaving hapless drummer Frank B. Butter to pound along like a rock & roll choo-choo seeking to escape its noxious cargo.
