Goin' Home: A Tribute to Fats Domino [Digipak]

While Allen Toussaint and Wynton Marsalis came to represent the public face of the New Orleans cultural revival after Hurricane Katrina, it was Fats Domino who may have provided the most inspiration for the troubled city. A lifelong resident of the famous Lower Ninth Ward, Domino was feared dead when his whereabouts were unknown following the disaster. Thankfully, Domino survived, insuring that far more than just his memory would serve to inspire the people of the Crescent City. GOIN' HOME, a star-studded tribute to the Fat Man, arrived during the second anniversary of Katrina, and featured the likes of Tom Petty, BB King, Elton John, Willie Nelson, and Robert Plant taking on a host of Domino classics. Stand out tracks include a ska-tinged "Let the Four Winds Blow" from Toots and the Maytals, Robert Plant's gentle, slow-burning "It Keeps Raining," Neil Young's surprisingly lush "Walkin' to New Orleans," and Irma Thomas and Marcia Balls's funky, defiant "I Just Can't Get New Orleans Off My Mind."
