    Genuinely never knew he was still alive. Real old school great.

    Also never knew that Chubby Checker was a play on words with Fats Domino till today..

    It's a better name for a rock 'n roller than Earnest Evans. Can't believe you didn't know that.

    Very true,but nope never realised just thought a couple of larger gentlemen just used similar first names. Never even considered Domino and Checkers.

    Blobby Backgammon didn't have much of a career mind, nor did Lardo Ludo.

    My sports master boxed for Wales at the commonwealth games in 1962,
    He used to work out to Fats.
