This nonsense I like to call a blob of a blog and last.fm's rwagner would like to welcome Fats_Domino to his Top 50 playlist with 542 plays. With the minimum requirement of over 500 plays to crack "rwagner" Top 50 this is quite a coup for Fats (like it really matters much to Fats or his next of kin). Most of these plays have come in recent days as the "house music" for the Chick N Dip Drive In (as seen in the book "Drive- In Deluxe") in Hampshire, Il. Fats' early rock n roll recordings, that were so influential at the dawn of the rock era, sound right at home in the dining room of the Chick N Dip whose birth itself took place in the 1950's. In fact, one recent diner in the diner commented, "This music is perfect for a place like this." Most of these listens came via the Fats Domino box set "Walking to New Orleans". If you don't have it, do yourself a favor and get it.
