I've done my homework!! This is the ONLY Greatest Hits CD that has ALL of the big man's hits!! It doesn't jip you of any!! Plus all of these songs fit onto one CD!! Little did Fats know that Cheap Trick and a few other great rock bands have remade some of his classic songs. Fats was one of the pioneers of Rock 'N' Roll!! The only CD you need from Fats if you don't need non-hits!

There are so many compilations of Fats Domino hits it is almost impossible to choose among them. Choose this one. Every great song is here, including my personal favorites Blueberry Hill, the Fat Man, Walkin to New Orleans, and one of the truly great and underrated rock and roll classics, I'm Ready, featuring the priceless line "talking on the phone is not my speed, don't send me no letter cause I can't read"!! And the sound is phenomenal, the remastering is much cleaner and detailed than, for example, the other compilation I own, My Blue Heaven. Fats Domino may not have invented rock and roll, although there are those who claim he did, but he sure helped define it and his music was uniquely inspired. Buy this CD.

Fats Domino is truly a Great Artist&this Compilation covers a wide range of His Greatest Songs to me overall.if you are looking for one Main set of Fats Domino's Collection this is the One to have."Blue Berry Hill" is the Jam.
