  • WWL-TV wanted to celebrate Fats Domino's life on what would have been his 90th birthday.
    Domino died a few months earlier. Eric Paulsen remembered Domino and got a rare look inside of his home, a rare talk about his memories and a rare chance to hear him play - one last time.

    Nel 1994 avevo 24 anni, a nizza in francia, non conoscevo l'importanza del signor Domino. Poi ho capito...lo avvicinai, non sapevo l'inglese, insomma un disastro...ma lui fi affettuoso, sorridente, umile. Cime facevo a capire che era una star?
    Lo ricordo cosi...In seguito ho incontrato tante star che si credevano chissa chi: nessuno fu cosi UMILE come mr Domino. I love you Antoine. Rip ❤❤

    @9:45 now I understand why Fats and EP were friends. They were both shy humble folks where music happened to be their passion. Fats used to meet up with Elvis in Las Vegas when their schedules allowed. Whats interesting is how EP responded to being the King of Rock and Roll, a title he quickly dismissed. He pointed to this man right here, Fats Domino. RIP Fats and EP thanks for the music.

    Guess what I have in my car disc player!? Yes! It's Fats Domino's Greatest Hits. Been listening and singing along to this man's music for more than 60 years. All of his children have names based on their dear father's name. Heard the first three chords of the song he played in the studio and nailed it "I'm Walkin' to New Orleans". Thank you Antoine for your help in keeping me grounded in music all of these many years 🎶🎶🎶
