He had quite a few other good songs, though lesser-known. I liked "Walking to New Orleans". It kind of fascinated me that a person (even a fictional one) would be so determined to get somewhere that he would just walk, even though it was so far away.

I much prefer his version of "Ain't That a Shame" to Cheap Trick's....and definitely over Pat Boone's version. He was so innovative, and sadly I don't think modern fans can see how important and influential he was on rock and roll.

Fats Domino was very popular when I was growing up in the late 50's and 60's. I always loved him.
