The Fat Man: 25 Classic Performances Review
Fats Domino was about as sunny as any '50s rocker; he just wanted you to have a good time. The Fat Man is a value-packed disc full of the great singles that defined the New Orleans singer-pianist's ebullient, lighthearted style. By casting a wide, 25-song net, it also allows for some of his rare moans of dissatisfaction to creep in: "Blue Monday," "Valley of Tears," the raised-eyebrow "Poor Me." But for salve, there's "Blueberry Hill," "I'm Walkin'," "Whole Lotta Loving."... --Rickey Wright
Highly recommended.
