Raise your hand if you assumed Fats Domino had been dead for 20 years already.

Now I get to mourn him again. RIP Fats!

Wow, had no idea he was still with us. How long has it been since he was in the public eye? Seems like decades.

Listened to Fats on the Black Radio stations ( Going to the River )back in 53 before he was played on the major ones

But Chuck Berry was bigger than he was IMHO

Actually Berry was shunned by the black audiences as too country

BUT the first Rock and Roller was Hank Williams
