September 17, 1955 – Pat Boone

September 17, 1955 – Pat Boone banks his first #1 on the Billboard Most Played in Jukeboxes chart when “Ain’t That A Shame” hits the top spot. Some folks think it’s a shame that his sterilized version is far more popular than Fats Domino’s original, but Boone’s cover draws lots of attention to Domino and earns the New Orleans singer substantial royalties. #ROCkabillyHop #PatBoone #AintThatAShame #FatsDomino #RocHop #Billboard #OTD
