“Never let it be said that Fats Domino’s record labels didn’t know how to make the most out of a picture”

Fats Domino’s record label took one photo and reused it again and again and again.

“I have laughed at Cookin’ With Fats a considerable amount” says @Ricardoautobahn.

“Did they erase his mustache on the red one? Nice Photographic Shop!” writes @Molloman.

“Best $2 they ever spent!” says @Thenolachick.

Two things whilst you’re still here:

1. Did you know that Chubby Checker is a play on Fats Domino? Mind blown etc. And now think up your own similar names: Obese Chess, Tubby Tiddlywinks…

2. Lots of people sharing Fat’s version of the Beatles Everybody’s Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey, and it IS pretty awesome.

Anyway. RIP Fats. You were loved.
