The famous Cartier Centre in the heart of Paris is home of a special Rock �n� Roll expo, focussing on the early years. Guest of honor Alfred Wertheimer visited the exposition last weekend, and is leaving Paris again, next Wednesday. The first part of the expo tries to recreate the atmosphere of freedom and �liberation� that lead to Rock �n� Roll. The second half holds a treasure of historical items, such as Buddy Holly�s guitar, a jacked Elvis wore in the Sullivan show, a wall of juke boxes, original concert posters, documents, contracts and checks, a Cadillac �53, a re-created recording room of the fifties and much more. The highlight of the expo is a selection of Alfred Wertheimer�s best Elvis pictures, taken in 1956.
