The King of Rock and Roll
Elvis Presley died nearly 30 years ago…but death isn’t hurting his career. For example, tomorrow, a new show featuring Presley hits opens Broadway at the Palace Theater. There’s a new CBS mini-series coming in May. And Lisa Marie Presley is just about to to release her second CD. Today on Soundcheck, critic Anthony DeCurtis drops by to spend an hour with us, debating the achievements and the legacy of the King of Rock and Roll. We’ll talk about how Presley appropriated black music, hear how his work continues to influence young performers today, and we’ll take your calls.
