Fats Domino was one of the most important figures in the development and popularisation of rock 'n' roll, representing as he did the bridging of the previously yawning gap between the black R&B market and the white mainstream commercial pop scene during the middle years of the 1950s. His career began long before the well-documented rock 'n' roll explosion of those years, but he maintained an extraordinary longevity in the charts. This rocking retrospective features 20 of his greatest singles, many of which made waves across the pond in the UK charts, with a whopping nine R&B No.1's among them. His trademark New Orleans R&B style found a distinctive niche in rock 'n' roll, with landmark hits like Ain't That A Shame, Blueberry Hill, Blue Monday, I'm Walkin' and Walkin' To New Orleans, and he became a hugely influential and widely respected figure. So strap on your books and take a walk with the fat man through 50's New Orleans, one of the giants of post-war pop
