Rock Around Broadway

During the 1960s, as rock and roll (and R&B) emerged as the dominant popular music genre, several rock stars covered Broadway show tunes--more than you'd think!  So, we're going to rock around the Theatre District with The Four Tops, The Doors, Janis Joplin, James Brown, the Mamas and the Papas, Elvis Presley and those four irrepressible mop tops from Liverpool!
