Rock and Rollin' with Fats Domino, originally released as Carry on Rockin', is the 1955 debut album by Fats Domino, compiling a number of his hits and other material, some of which would soon become hits. The album, which featured a woodcut portrait of the musician,[1] reached #17 on the Billboard "Pop Albums" chart.[2] It is believed to have been produced by engineer Bunny Robyn due to the notation on the cover "A Robyn Recording".[1]
Release history
The album was first released on Imperial Records, catalog #9009, under the title Carry on Rockin' in November 1955 and reissued under the title Rock and Rollin' With Fats Domino.[3] Various dates are given for the re-issue. The Great Rock Discography indicates that Imperial 9009 was reissued under alternate title in October 1956 and March 1957,[3] but the Domino biography Blue Monday indicates April 1956.[1]
When Domino left Imperial in 1963 to join Paramount, Imperial retained the rights to this and several other of Domino's notable albums,[4] reissuing it on LP as recently as 1981.[5] It has subsequently been reissued in conjunction with another early Domino album, Million Sellers By Fats, as Rock and Rollin' with Fats Domino/Million Sellers By Fats.[6]
Songs
Although this was Domino's album debut, the R&B pianist had already been recording singles for seven years at the time of this release.[7] The album compiled a number of Domino's hit singles as well as some songs that would soon become hit singles, including "Ain't That a Shame" (#1 ""Black Singles", #10 "Pop Singles"), "All by Myself" (#1 "Black Singles"), "Poor Me" (#1 "Black Singles"), "Bo Weevil" (#5 "Black Singles", #35 "Pop Singles") and "Don't Blame It On Me" (#9 "Black Singles"), but omitted "Don't You Know" (#7 "Black Singles"), "I Can't Go On" (#6 "Black Singles") and "Thinking of You" (#14, "Black Singles").[8][3]
