RIP Fats Domino
The Music industry lost yet another legend, Fats Domino.
His soulful sound with that Cajun flare, songs like "On BlueBerry Hill", "Ain't That a shame",
"Jambalaya"and "I'm Walkin" not only broke the color barrier in the 50s, but inspired numerous other musical artists. Even Elvis called Fats "The real king of rock and roll."
Fats was also heavily involved in the Post-Katrina rebuild of New Orleans.

They're all in their eighties now. It's to be expected. Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, and all the other surviving old legends are nearing the end of a natural lifespan. Couple that with a rock n' roll lifestyle, they're lucky they lived THIS long.
Although Keith Richards doesn't count. There's a theory that Keef actually died several years ago, and his body just hasn't gotten the message yet. It's just his corpse shambling around. :P
