The Rock 'n' Soul Museum to find guitars and stage costumes of the greatest, including the mythical Lucille by B.B. King

On the square of fedex Forum, the Rock 'n Soul Museum describes the two great musical movements that have developed in Memphis from the original blues. Here you will find guitars and stage costumes of the greatest, including the mythical Lucille of B.B. King. The first part is particularly interesting, it staged life at the time, from life on the farm to the time of migration to periods of migration to Memphis, from the organization of the city segregated at the beginning of the fight for civil rights. An exhibition that helps to better understand the emergence and evolution of different musical groups in this very strong cultural and social context. A good museum but must be completed by a tower at the Stax Museum for soul or Sun Studio for rock.

Ce musée raconte l'histoire de la musique du Blues des pauvres blancs et noirs du Sud au Rock and Roll. Et la dernière partie nous parle de la Soul Music. On apprend les histoires des principaux interprètes (Carl Perkins , Jerry Lee Lewis, BB King (Beale Street Boy King) ainsi que des studios célèbres de Sun Records pour le Rock et Stax pour la soul. Plusieurs jukebox nous proposent les titres en entier dont nous entendons les extraits. On nous donne un casque à l'entrée et l'on peut écouter les commentaires et les extraits de chansons. Un très bon moment!

Situé à quelques pas de la célèbre Beale Street, ce musée présente des pièces variées (textes, partitions, photos, etc.) sur l’histoire musicale, les origines, les interprètes et des matériels qui montrent l’évolution vestimentaire, des instruments, de la technique sur scène et en studio. De belles pièces qui éveillent la nostalgie des uns, la curiosité des autres. De nombreux documents sonores sont disponibles à l’écoute. A ne pas manquer sur la « Route de la Musique ».
