DESCRIPTION

TRACK LIST

Between the late 1940s and the mid 1960s, the songs of Bartholomew and, most frequently, his protégé Fats Domino were never off the R&B and Pop charts. Besides Fats, Dave also wrote for or with the majority of the Crescent City’s biggest acts of the period, composing many of R&B and rock’n’roll’s most durable anthems along the way. His works have been recorded by some of the biggest names in the history of popular music, as well as some of the most obscure. The appropriately titled “The Big Beat” assembles two dozen of the man’s best known copyrights, many of which have been hits over and over again.
