This Is Fats Domino!
by Fats Domino
The 1584th greatest album of all time
This Is Fats Domino! (1956) showcases Fats Domino's piano-driven New Orleans R&B and early rock and roll style, combining relaxed baritone vocals, rolling triplet piano patterns, a steady backbeat and light horn accents. The material blends R&B, pop phrasing and touches of swamp pop, presenting accessible, melody-forward arrangements that illustrate Domino's contribution to bringing New Orleans rhythmic and melodic sensibilities into mid 1950s popular music.
