Recorded between 1955 & 1961. Includes liner notes by Steve Kolanjian. This is part of the EMI Legends Of Rock & Roll series. Personnel: Fats Domino (vocals, piano). Liner Note Author: Steve Kolanjian. Recording information: Cosimo Recording Studios, New Orleans, LA (12/10/1949-09/11/1961); L.A., CA (12/10/1949-09/11/1961). Photographer: Jeffrey Scales. Unknown Contributor Role: Ron Furmanek. For the budget-minded fan, this 20-track single-disc compilation of Fats Domino's Imperial smashes will serve nicely. Not much of his early pre-rock stuff -- "The Fat Man" and "Please Don't Leave Me" are all that are here -- but there's plenty of his hit-laden output from 1955 on -- "Ain't It a Shame," "Blue Monday," "I'm in Love Again," "Blueberry Hill," "I'm Ready," among others. One small but substantial difference between this set and the larger packages: It uses non-sped-up masters of his mid-'50s material (some of his hits from this era were mastered slightly faster than true pitch). Even if they're not historically correct, these versions actually sound better. ~ Bill Dahl
