    I attended the lecture on Elvis last Monday night. The speaker seemed to be very educated on Elvis. It was quite obvious that his research extended into the very beginning of Elvis's life up until the tragic end. Elvis is very important to Southern culture, as far as the music aspect goes. Some say he "defined rock and roll". Learning of the struggles he endured in order to be a success are fascinating. He did what ever it took and because of his effort, we were given some of the greatest music of all time.
