A traditional parade known as a "second line" was held in New Orleans November 1, 2017 in memory of the American entertainer Fats Domino, who died last week at the age of 89. Domino's death marked the passing of an era in the city, whose uniquely boisterous cultural brew created the musician's sound -- and, with it, rock 'n' roll. (EMILY KASK/AFP via Getty Images)
