August 16, 2016 marks 39 years since the death of the ‘King of Rock and Roll’ Elvis Presley. Iconic and loved by fans all ages, Elvis is one of the most (if not the most) prolific artists in music history. It’s no surprise that we’re HUGE FANS of him here at Zoomer Radio and we’d like you to join us in a walk down memory lane as we remember Elvis through the ages…
