Central Park West • 1500 Forest Gate Rd OAK BROOKIL  60523 Organized by OAK BROOK PARK DISTRICT

About this event

Description

Elvis revolutionized popular music when he exploded onto the scene in 1956 with his unique blend of rhythm & blues and country music. His “energetic” performances, distinctive voice, and charismatic persona made him a worldwide cultural icon. It was a wild ride with huge musical successes, underwhelming films, an astonishing comeback, and a sad downward spiral to his death at age 42. Elvis’ impact was seismic and he forever remains: The "King of Rock and Roll." Our presenter, Gary Wenstrup retired from a rewarding career in advertising sales and developed courses on the Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, Motown Records, and many other musical legends. If you have yet to see Gary lecture, I promise he will become a favorite! This is a program you are not going to want to miss!
