Fats Domino: "Walking to New Orleans"
Interesting pick, when
"I'm Walkin'" by Fats is the more associated with him.
I love the way he plays the piano. He treats it like it is his most reliable best friend who would never let him down. Contrast that with, say Carole King (check her "One Fine Day" video), where she is trying to beat the poor piano up.
If I wanted to have a VERY pleasant dinner party, and could name any celbrities from the 20th century, Fats Domino, Dean Martin and Gilbert O'Sullivan would make my short list. Gracious men who would never let a host feel inadequate.
Oh, and for other "Walking" songs, I'd like to throw out Del Shannon's last record,
"Walk Away".
I'm waiting for someone to suggest "Take a Walk on the Wild Side".
