My Blue Heaven: The Best of Fats Domino Review
The Fat Man is perhaps the most underappreciated of rock's founding fathers. He pulled together the sounds of blues shouter Joe Turner, the New Orleans piano of Professor Longhair, the jump blues of Louis Jordan, and a number of country influences into a whole both indebted to those influences and somehow his own. This introductory disc contains 20 slices of blue heaven, including such archetypal singles as "Ain't That a Shame," "Blue Monday," "Blueberry Hill," and the beautifully string-drenched "Walkin' to New Orleans"--each one an argument for this artist's immortality. --David Cantwell
