Titlen på pladen er Goin’ Home: A Tribute to Fats Domino. Den udkommer til september og bidrager til bevarelsen af kulturlivet i New Orleans, der som bekendt blev næsten udryddet i forbindelse med orkanen Katharina. Lad os fejre udgivelsen med et par gyldne øjeblikke med mesteren selv. Her er først Ain’t That A Shame:

Og man kan ikke nævne The Fat Man uden at nævne Blueberry Hill:
