08. Fats Domino – Walking To New Orleans

“I was about 12 years old when I discovered Fats Domino and the other figures on the R&B scene in New Orleans,” erklärte Simeon Coxe vor ein paar Jahren, als er nach seinen persönlichen musikalischen Favoriten gefragt wurde

“What they were doing grabbed my soul.”

“ Seeing Fats‘ chubby little fingers fluttering over the keys like a butterfly was a trip,“ der dann auch die Silver Apples (unter anderem) beeinflussen sollte.

„My childhood influence by Fats Domino was a lot to do with that – simple melodies, simple beats, simple song concepts. That was where we went with it, more out of necessity, my limitations, than some brilliant musical idea.“
