Fats Domino Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose - I Want To Walk You Home Too Late To Turn Back Now

Review by Giuseppe Masi

Album Review: "I Want To Walk You Home / Too Late To Turn Back Now" by Fats Domino & Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose Released in 1972 on Capitol Records, this funky little gem of an album is a soulful collision between two legendary acts—Fats Domino and Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose. It’s not your typical full-length LP but more like a snapshot of what happens when rock 'n' roll meets Southern soul with just enough grit to keep things interesting. The genres here are listed as Funk/Soul and Rock, but honestly? This feels like the kind of record that doesn’t care much for labels—it just wants you to feel something. Let’s dive into the tracks because that’s where the magic lives. First up, we’ve got "Too Late To Turn Back Now." Man, this one sticks with me. It's got that smooth groove that sneaks up on you, starting off mellow before exploding into this infectious chorus that feels tailor-made for swaying under neon lights. The vocals from Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose are buttery yet raw, packing all the emotion of someone who knows they’re all-in, no matter what comes next. There’s something about the way the horns punch through the mix—it’s bold without being overbearing, like it’s daring you not to tap your foot. If I had to pick one track to play at a late-night party, this would be it. Then there’s "I Want To Walk You Home," which flips the vibe entirely. Here, Fats Domino brings his signature New Orleans charm to the table, blending piano licks so sharp they could cut glass with lyrics dripping in old-school romance. This tune reminds me why Fats was such a powerhouse—he makes walking someone home sound like the most romantic act ever committed. You can almost picture him tipping his hat while crooning these lines. It’s simple, sure, but sometimes simplicity hits hardest. What strikes me most about this project is how effortlessly both tracks bridge generations and styles. On paper, pairing Fats Domino with Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose might seem odd—one rooted deeply in rock 'n' roll history, the other riding high on the soul wave—but somehow, it works. Maybe too well. Listening to this album feels like overhearing a conversation between friends who shouldn’t get along but somehow do. Here’s the kicker though—this wasn’t some grand statement or concept album; it was just two singles slapped together. Yet decades later, it still resonates. Funny how music does that, isn’t it? Like maybe the best stuff doesn’t need to try so hard. So yeah, if you’re looking for perfection, look elsewhere. But if you want authenticity wrapped in a time capsule of 1972 vibes, give this one a spin. Just don’t blame me if you find yourself humming “Too Late” for days.

My mama told me, she said, "Son, please beware
There's this thing called love, and it's ah ev'rywhere"
And she told me it can break your heart (break your heart)
And put you in misery (it can put you in misery)
Since I met this little woman I feel it's happened to me
And I'm tellin' you
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
I find myself phonin' her at least ten times a day
It's so unusual for me to carry on this way
I tell you, I can't sleep at night, a wanting to hold her tight
I tried so hard to convince myself that this feelin' just can't be right
And I'm tellin' you
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late to turn back now (ooh baby)
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late (baby) to turn back now (I tell ya)
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love (oh)
I wouldn't mind it if I knew she really loved me too
But I'd hate to think that I'm in love alone
And nothing that I can do, oh
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love (ooh baby)
It's too late to turn back now (I tell ya)
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe
