Yes, but just as Artie Shaw made Cole Porter's "Begin the Beguine" his own, Fats Domino took possession of Blueberry Hill a few years later. Carole King hammers the piano into submission. Elton John has trained it to do tricks and backflips. But Fats Domino romances his piano. < a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKQZy2PJtq8">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKQZy2PJtq8
