Antoine “Fats” Domino Jr. was an American pianist and singer-songwriter. One of the pioneers of rock and roll music, Domino sold more than 65 million records. One of his most famous songs is “Blueberry Hill.” Between 1955 and 1960, he had eleven Top 10 hits. Domino had 35 records in the U.S. Billboard Top 40, and five of his pre-1955 records sold more than a million copies, being certified gold. His 1949 release “The Fat Man” is widely regarded as the first million-selling Rock ‘n Roll record. Domino’s musical style was based on traditional rhythm and blues, accompanied by saxophones, bass, piano, electric guitar, and drums.
