The Rock and Soul Museum in Memphis opened its doors in 2000. The museum's exhibits tell the story of musical pioneers of Rock and Soul music. Our visit the the museum united many areas of my studies on this trip, since the exhibits began with the rural field hollers and sharecroppers of the 1930s, and ended with the explosion of recording studios during Memphis’ musical heyday in the 70s. Visitors use audio headsets to listen to narrations of the exhibits and thoughout the museum are several juke boxes with selections of songs from the various decades to listen to.
