Recording Notes

• The song was likely recorded live in a studio setting to capture the energy of Fats Domino's performance.
• Microphone placement would have been crucial to capture the full body and warmth of the piano, likely with the RCA 44 positioned to capture a balanced sound.

Recreation Tips

• Use a high-quality grand piano sample or instrument as your base.
• Apply a touch of compression to even out the dynamics and add sustain.
• Experiment with EQ to emphasize the mid-range frequencies, adding a slight 'honk' or 'bark' to the tone.
• Add a touch of plate reverb to emulate the ambience of a live recording session.
