Coincidental that a question about Fats Domino popped up on an old rerun of Blockbusters - a game show hosted by the late, great Bill Cullen.
What "F" is the nickname of Antoine Domino?

Heard about this on the way back from the Santa Claus parade this morning. Sad news to hear.
Right after it was announced on the radio, they played "Have A Drink On Me".
So, I had a look to see if I could buy it on iTunes. I can, but I don't have to. It is on 'Back In Black'.
RIP Malcolm Young.
