MUSIC LESSONS - What a great way to learn about the music scene from the very start of the Blues to rock music. You start with a short film and then given a personal headphones with a digital guide to take you through each exhibit at your own pace. This is a must visit, All the staff are very friendly and Helpful. Also a shop to buy souvenirs. 👌👍

Outstanding experience - The location is just by the football stadium but we're told it's due to move at some point. We went as had time to kill and had no real expectations as it doesn't seem to be on many people's radar. That was our mistake. It's a very friendly and interesting museum and we thoroughly enjoyed it. It wasnt too busy but it really deserves to be. The guy who worked there is a credit to the museum.

Great museum - This is a great museum. It is well set out tracing the history of rock and soul. The exhibits give a real insight into that history and how music has changed over the decades. A great extra is the audio includes several collections of songs across the decades. Recommended
