Ain't that a shame.
 
But honestly, I already thought he had passed.:$
 
Here he is with the King, doing Blueberry Hill, back in the 70s.

Those were the days, 50 & 60's when music had a meaning behind it. I remember the teens dancing on American Bandstand to his music. Precious memories. RIP Fat's, love your music. :(

I may have only been in 1960 but it was good music back in those days.
