Rocks

Fats Domino was rockin and rollin long before Elvis, Jerry Lee, Ricky, Bill Haley or anyone else... 1949 in fact. "The Fat Man" inaugurated a long career that saw him become the first R&B artist to cross over to the pop charts and stay there. Some of his contemporaries scored a hit or two with this new rock 'n' roll music, but Fats scored hit after hit, year after year. Great New Orleans musicians are heard on every song & this is the all-time greatest Domino compilation. From 1956 when teenagers heard Pat Boone's cover version of Ain't It a Shame, then heard Fats' original and realized that one was hot and one was not. Fats followed with 65 more pop hits and that's not counting the 13 R&B hits he'd scored before Ain't It a Shame, then Blue Monday, I'm Ready, Walkin' to New Orleans, Blueberry Hill, I'm Walkin' and many more. He survived rock 'n' roll, he survived Hurricane Katrina! Includes a 32 page booklet.
