I'm ready, I'm willing, and I'm able to rock'n'roll all night...

I got this playing on my record player now, if you can't have fun to this one, I don't know what to say.

One of my favorite Fat's records was Walking To New Orleans. I remember dancing to a lot of his music in my younger days.

Saw Fats in Vegas.
He recorded a bunch of great songs!

Typical-the white audience had no rhythm at all!

I think his version of Jambalaya is my favorite.

When you say Fats Domino that's all you can say. The one and only and the best of the best. My two places to visit in NO if I ever get there are His club and Pete Fountain's place.

Blueberry Hill is another great.

He sang a couple songs in either: Every Which Way But Loose or Every Which Way You Can. I think he was at The Palomino Club???///

I remember listening to a cover of I'm Walking and reading the cover to find the original writer was Antoine Domino. It only to a millisecond to say fats. Truly a one of a kind. Went to a concert featuring Chubby Checker once and he explained that he would sing some of Fats hits as some people got them confused.

Antoine "Fats" Domino, Jr........one of the greatest.....

Just Learned that Pete Fountain passed. He was 86. RIP Mr. Clarinet man. Liked him from the first time I ever saw him on the Lawrence Welk program.
