Antoine 'Fats' Domino's brand of New Orleans R&B had scarcely changed since his first record, 'The Fat Man', in 1949 but with the advent of rock 'n' roll, his record label encouraged him to push the rhythm, drop the blues, beef up the saxes, write teenage lyrics and call it rock 'n' roll. Fats did not mind: he simply loved playing music. This collection included older material such as 'Please Don't Leave Me', but still justified the rock 'n' roll tag. Fats' wife is the subject of 'Rosemary' and they had eight children, each of which was christened with a name beginning with 'A'. Perhaps Fats' records had plenty of bounce because he used to work in a bedsprings factory?
