Description

Fats Domino Fans!
Up for auction is this FATS DOMINO The Fat Man Detroit City Blues IMPERIAL 5058 78 Record.  
It is often cited as one of the first rock and roll records.
A-Side: The Fat Man B-Side: Detroit City Blues
Record Condition: G/V- (small tears on label, slight storage warp, scratches and wear. Surface noise while playing but no skipping. Played on 1953 RCA Victor)
The Song: "The Fat Man" is a song by American rhythm and blues recording artist Fats Domino. It was written by Domino and Dave Bartholomew, and recorded on December 10, 1949. It is often cited as one of the first rock and roll records.
Recording: The song was recorded for Imperial Records in Cosimo Matassa's J&M studio on Rampart Street in New Orleans, Louisiana on Saturday, December 10, 1949. Imperial's Lew Chudd had previously asked Dave Bartholomew to show him some locally popular talent, and was most impressed with Fats Domino, then playing at a working class dive in the 9th Ward of New Orleans.
Domino sang and played piano, along with Earl Palmer on drums, Frank Fields on string bass, Ernest McLean on guitar, and sax players Herbert Hardesty, Clarence Hall, Joe Harris, and Alvin "Red" Tyler. Sadly, the aluminum (or lacquer) master disc recording has been missing for over 50 years. Today's masters come from well-preserved 78 RPM copies.
Sold as is. Please ask questions before bidding. U.S. shipping is $4.00.
