Fats Domino R.I.P.
The New Orleans legend has passed away at 89. This photo was taken at Hammersmith Odeon, London on 21 October 1981. I was the only photographer in the photo pit that night and he smiled at me through virtually the entire show. Not only was he a huge influence on rock and roll but he had a big impact on the early days of reggae. His music was a staple at early dances and he was a regular visitor to Jamaica.
