Elvis
On this day in 1977, American singer Elvis Presley, known as the “King of Rock and Roll,” died of a heart attack brought on largely by drug abuse.
Were you an Elvis Fan? If so favorite song? How about a few trivia questions about Rock and Roll?

Who was the first rock-and-roll superstar?

What singer was inducted three times in Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

What was the first rock song to become famous around the world?

Which single was the last number one given by Elvis Presley in 1969?

Whenever I think of Elvis, it reminds me of when I was 16. I wasn’t a particularly big fan of Elvis, the Beatles were my favourite. My boyfriend at the time had a cleaning job at a club. He was saving to buy a motorbike, he was 16 too.
I think he was being paid an English pound to clean the floors. Anyway, I decided to go and keep him company and saw to my delight that there was a microphone already plugged in and ready to go, so while he was busy scrubbing the floors, I entertained him with several Elvis songs. I remember I knew the words to Wooden Heart and Love Me Tender. I’m sure I thought I sounded amazing! I must have found a way to my boyfriends heart, as we will soon be celebrating our 60th wedding anniversary!
