He was actually in critical condition today. Sadly, Tom's manager and family have confirmed that he has passed so it's official now.

Fats Domino passed away today after a long illness. He was 89. A huge influence on many musicians and a legend of 50's rock n roll. R.I.P. Antoine "Fats" Domino Jr.
From Wiki - "Both John Lennon and Paul McCartney recorded Domino songs. McCartney reportedly wrote the Beatles song "Lady Madonna" in emulation of Domino's style, combining it with a nod to Humphrey Lyttelton's 1956 hit "Bad Penny Blues". Domino returned to the "Hot 100" chart for the last time in 1968, with his recording of "Lady Madonna".

my favourite artist from the pre and early days of rock and roll...
there is a life size bronze statue of Fats outside a small eatery in New Orleans (French Quarter)
where myself and MH had some fried catfish...
I don't have a favourite track by Fats, so here's one of the many I love...
