1960 HITS ARCHIVE: Walking To New Orleans - Fats Domino

Walking To New Orleans (Domino-Bartholomew-Guidry) by Fats Domino

As various other R&B and rock & roll artists were doing around that time, Fats released a few sides that included a string section accompaniment (or overdub). This one climbed to #6 on the Hot 100, though it was the last time that he would enter the ‘pop’ top 10.
