Fats Domino, one of most influential rock and roll performers of the 1950s and 60s, has died aged 89.
The American rock and roll artist was best known for his songs Ain't That A Shame and Blueberry Hill.
The New Orleans singer sold more than 65 million records, outselling every 1950s rock and roll act except Elvis Presley.

Ain't that a shame.
 
But honestly, I already thought he had passed.:$
 
Here he is with the King, doing Blueberry Hill, back in the 70s.

Those were the days, 50 & 60's when music had a meaning behind it. I remember the teens dancing on American Bandstand to his music. Precious memories. RIP Fat's, love your music. :(

I may have only been in 1960 but it was good music back in those days.
