Fats Domino
is one of those rock’n’roll pioneers who have been credited for making the
first record in the genre – which in his case was “The Fat Man” in 1949 (US
R&B #2).
“Valley of Tears” and “It’s You I Love” are Domino’s lesser known songs, but they both hit
the Top 10 in US Billboard and R&B charts.
