My U.S. commercial 45 of 'When My Dreamboat Comes Home' by Fats Domino (Imperial 5396) states the run time as (2:15), but I timed it at (2;23). On the various CDs listed in the database the run times range from (2:15) to (2:22). The only one I have is the They Call Me The Fat Man box set, on which the song runs (2:17). The song has a faded ending, but the time difference is almost entirely due to a speed difference. Imperial sped up the tape on a number of 1950s Fats Domino singles, but it looks like this is one they may actually have slowed down.
