~ tangor and keyplyr missed one ~

[birdbrain]

How strange that, neither tangor nor keyplyr, our stalwarts for
informing members here, of the passing of popular musicians,
never mentioned the departure of "Fats Domino".

Still, better late than never I suppose ...

I saw it first in the weekly roundup at cracked dot com. Really.

Thanks birdbrain,

I didn't miss the passing of Fats Domino, we talked about him a lot at my studio, just have been occupied and neglected to post about it. I will never let that happen again.

He was unique in his time, mixing the blues into mainstream pop music. He certainly made his mark.

However, I didn't forget about the sad passing of Larry La PRISE [webmasterworld.com]

[tangor]

I did note, almost posted, then thought I'd give somebody else a chance!

Wanted to see who.

"Wanted to see who."

I bet you never thought that 'the bald headed old fart' would be that somebody. :)

The first thing I learned to play on the guitar, back in the early 60s was Kansas City Blues..........

RIP Fats
