[ROCK] 81 years ago, Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi. By the age of 21 he was a sensation, and by the time he died in 1977 at the age of 42, he was the king. In that amount of time Elvis racked up 18 number one albums (and three more since his death) and more than 30 number one singles. There’s a reason that people still celebrate his birthday. Locally, you’ll find a celebration of the King of Rock and Roll’s birthday at the Sportsmen’s Tavern, this Monday, January 11, where Mark Gamsjager & Lustre Kings featuring Eddie Clendening will pay tribute to Sir Swivel Hips himself.
