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

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.
