Fats Domino on the Perry Como Show

- Assorted clips from a 1957 Perry Como Show featuring Fats Domino. And this is indeed a slice of 1950s television -- even including an S&H Green Stamps commercial! Fats performs the songs "It's You I Love" and "I'm Walkin' " as well as participating in some skits. The closing segment also features singer Jo Stafford and comedian Jackie Miles joining in.
Rock 'n' Roll music -- at least in its 1950s incarnation -- was still new enough at the time to generate the usual mainstream apprehension that greets the unfamiliar. Perry Como plays the role here to the hilt of the bewildered guy caught in the middle of the onslaught, but in reality he was supportive of the emerging '50s rock acts by inviting them on his show, and during this period he even recorded some rock tunes of his own.
Antoine Dominique "Fats" Domino Jr. was one of the founding fathers of early rock & roll, having released his first record in 1949. So he was already a veteran of the scene by the time this performance was filmed; despite still being in his 20s.

I'm an 31 year old African-American male, from Detroit and I love PERRY COMO.
Perry Como and Fats Domino together, two of the nicest people in show business having fun.
Antoine "Fats" Domino" is a R&B Pioneer! Fats was way ahead of his time and thank god, he is still with us!
This slice of TV from 1957 is when TV was still fairly young itself. You can say rock and TV kinda grew up together!
I was born in 1957 and it’s like looking into another world, even to me.
Perry Como and Fats Domino were both real class acts! Different styles of music, but both were great performers with great songs, and both were cool guys!
I love Fats and he’s on my favourite singers show.
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!
This is so good! Real music!
Nice! I know that the Perry Como show from September of 1956 onward was telecasted in color, but only survives in black and white kinescope form, as color kinescope technology wasn’t used that much.
Real Music
I love Perry and Fats
Thanks for posting. The parade vibe really comes out on "It's You I Love" more than the studio recording.
Happy 85th !
Wow Nothing short of awesome!
Brilliant TV!

Such CLEAN looking people back then!
Great Perry! Il mio idolo.
I wonder how many folks watched this vid knowing that they were watching the true originator of what is now called Rock And Roll music..
@CarlDuke: The original (and much bigger hit) of “Black Denim Trousers” was by The Cheers; one of the members was Bert Convy, actor and game-show host. The great Edith Piaf also recorded a version in French.
I realize your purpose was to highlight Fats Domino, but thanks for a rare sighting of comic Jackie Miles. Only wish there was more of him. Miles never got to point of being being really big, but was quite successful in nightclubs and did appear on TV as well as we see here.
The woman at the end is singer Jo Stafford and there was a reference to Vaughn Monroe and his motorcycle. Though Monroe was a bandleader and legit singer like Perry, he had just recorded and had a hit with a rock 'n' roll type song called Black Denim Trousers and Motorcycle Boots
Earl Palmer was much too busy in the studio to go on the road with Fats or anyone else. And by February 1957 he had moved from New Orleans to Los Angeles. The drummer here is probably Cornelius Coleman.
I've read that because of his session work he supposedly turned down an offer to drum for Elvis Presley
For fastest value save S&H GreenStamps!
RIP
@lovetuck5624: Yes, Fats was definitely one of those singers who had an enormous influence on the development of RocknRoll but so did Chuck Berry and Little Richard.
😎📀👍😊
at 2:27, I love it when those white teenagers casually push FATS DOMINO towards the piano and get him to play his big hit, how sweet.
Who's the comic with Perry at about 5 minutes?
Joe
Jackie Miles. Popular Jewish comedian born in Russia. Died 1968, age 54.
Honestly that’s My grandfather.
@@mmiles6015 Cool!
Whoever it is, he plays the livin' hell out of those things! On "It's you I love", my goodness, and then "I'm walkin'" according to Palmer, but with a real good sound. And I love it when the studio orchestra throws caution to the winds and plays full out along with Fats's band, which is smokin, and Fats ends up literally stealing the show.
Earl Palmer drummer??
No Palmer,Cornelius Coleman.
