RIP Fats Domino "The Fat Man" 1949
This tribute to the great Fats Domino is scored with his very first hit, "The Fat Man", a song recorded an incredible 68 years ago.
To quote the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: Fats Domino may not have been the most flamboyant rock and roller of the Fifties, but he was certainly the figure most rooted in the worlds of blues, rhythm & blues and the various strains of jazz that gave rise to rock and roll. With his boogie-woogie piano playing and drawling, Creole-inflected vocals, Antoine "Fats" Domino Jr. help put his native New Orleans on the map during the early rock and roll era. He was, in fact, a key figure in the transition from rhythm & blues to rock and roll -- a transition so subtle, especially in his case, that the line between these two nominally different forms of music blurred to insignificance.
Born in the Big Easy in 1928, pianist, singer and songwriter Fats Domino ultimately sold more records (65 million) than any Fifties-era rocker except Elvis Presley Between 1950 and 1963, he made Billboard's pop chart 63 times and its R&B chart 59 times. Incredible as it may seem, Fats Domino scored more hit records than Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Buddy Holly put together.
