Elvis Presley in Movies & Music with John LeGear (12-5-22)

Description

John LeGear will present Elvis Presley in film history. Elvis Presley was a pioneer of the music industry, similar to what Bing Crosby was in the 1930s and what the Beatles brought to the world in the 1960s. Elvis had all the tools: a distinctive style, good looks, a passion for his craft and an absolutely beautiful voice. So where does one start when making a movie music show about Elvis? Emphasis will be placed on the first half of his 23-year career, which began in 1954. Elvis sang from the depths of his soul better than anyone of his generation. This program will also focus on Elvis and his leading ladies. Elvis would have liked that, even if his longtime manager Colonel Tom Parker would not. Enjoy the movie music of Elvis Presley.Lunch includes an Italian beef sandwich, chips and dessert.
