Various Artists - Goin' Home: Tribute to Fats Domino
Reviewed by billwhite
The only reason to buy this bland assemblage of Fats Domino covers is to support the community related charities that CD sales will help fund. Some of it will buy musical instruments for New Orleans schoolkids. Other dollars will help rebuild Fats Domino's home that was lost in the flooding. It's good that the money is going towards something worthwhile, because the music adds nothing to the legacy of Fats Domino. It is all over-processed and NPR friendly, nothing like the rough and hard rocking music that Fats himself recorded. [www.tipitinasfoundation.org]
