Queen of Honky Tonk Street is an album recorded by Kitty Wells and released in 1967 on the Decca label (DL 4929) in the United States and on the Calendar Records label (SR66-9640) in Australia. [1]

The album's title track, "Queen of Honky Tonk Street", was one of Wells' final hits, peaking at No. 28 on the Billboard country chart. [2]

Thom Owens of AllMusic noted that Wells' "gutsy voice" made it worth hearing though the production was "a bit too heavy" for Wells' honky tonk inclinations. [3]
