Fats Domino has boldly signed the offered index card which is matted for framing with a 45 RPM copy of his most famous single, Blueberry Hill. Domino's influence on popular music cannot be overstated--he was an absolutely seminal figure in rock & roll. Between 1955 and 1960, he had eleven Top 10 US pop hits. By 1955 five of his records had sold more than a million copies, being certified gold. The Associated Press estimates that during his career, the artist "sold more than 110 million records, and the Grammy organization states that Domino landed 37 songs in the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 throughout his career, including 11 that peaked inside the Top 10". "Blueberry Hill", "Ain't It A Shame", "Walking to New Orleans" and "The Fat Man" are among his biggest hits. His humility and shyness may be one reason his contribution to the genre has been overlooked. The significance of his work was great however; Elvis Presley declared Domino to be "the real king of rock ‘n’ roll" and once announced that Domino "was a huge influence on me when I started out". The record presented in the matting is a 1979 “Silver Spotlight Series” issue of the the song. The index card is accompanied by a COA from Beckett Authentic. The index card presents with moderate toning. Excellent to Mint condition.
