An Invaluable Treasure! - The Memphis Rock n Soul Museum provides comprehensive look at the origins of most American music of the last 80 years. Not only does the museum set forth the history of southern society after the Civil War, it sets forth the cultural influences that whites and blacks had on each other and provides insights into the daily life of the people. The museum contains an exhibit showing that, before the TVA, people could enjoy electricity only through machines that could be charged through turning a crank to generate the needed electricity or using a battery. Most companies provided only one battery a year, which, under normal use was consumed within the first 90 days. The museum shows how white country music and black gospel music and those who performed the music interacted, both before and after World War II. It presents the story of Sun Records, Stax Studio and many other creative incubators and how they developed emerging talent. There apparently was more interaction between white and black singers and musicians than the public knew. I can only assume that commercial pressure to respond to cultural imperatives dictated the small degree to which the public was allowed to see this. I also went to Sun Records and Stax Studio. They are both great and are worth your time, as are the B.B. King venues. But this museum ties it all together. It can be done well in 90 minutes, and be a good investment of time.

Must do! - Must see. We really enjoyed this museum. The exhibit was great. To give you your equipment to listen to music while you walk through and have a great video to start. Staff working there were extremely friendly and pleasant

Loved all the displays... - Loved all the displays and all the supporting information and descriptions. My teenage son particularly enjoyed this experience.

Great self guided audio tour - Great self guided audio tour. Headsets and receivers are provided after you attend a brief intro video. Walk through with audio guide and spend as much time as you need at each numbered display. Informative and great music available at numerous stations. Took us about an hour to go through nut you could easily stay longer to listen to the many music selections. Well done for a good price too!

Excellent tour - The intro video audio tour were excellent. The audio head sets allow you to move through the various displays at your own pace. You can also listed to various musical selections at the various juke boxes. Well done e

Great museum - Great museum, although lady on the ticket counter could've been more friendly. Lots of interesting bits and pieces, so much to look at. Make sure you give yourself at least 1 hour. Would definitely recommend

Loving a Little Rock n Soul - Well laid out and very informative. Would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in music history.

Absolutely recommendable! - A wonderful museum that tells the story of all Memphis music styles from the roots in rural life in the late 19th/early 20th century to rock'n'roll and soul. The exhibition ist curated with a lot of love for details. The audio guide is one of the best I ever heard, with storytelling, original interview bits by artists and producers and music. At different jukeboxes on the way you can listen to as many full songs from the respective time as you like. I spent two hours here and had a great time.

Memphis rock and soul museum.... Was an excellent trip and a fantastic way to learn about it spiritual home of the blues and Roc - As a lover of blues and rock n roll music, you will love this experience. This excursion was booked by our rep for booking with them.... I'd pay top dollar for this experience as you learn so much about BB King, Elvis, and Martin Luther King. The experience covers the blues and the birth of Rock n Roll with so many artefacts from so many artists. A highlight of our trip to Memphis was this museum. You learn so much from the visit

Great place to learn about music - The museum takes you from the beginning of the blues through modern day in Memphis. It is a self guided tour with headsets and a story to listen to while you walk through history. Definitely a cool place to spend between 60-90 minutes.
