About Rock 'n' Soul MuseumThe Memphis Rock n Soul Museums
exhibition about the birth of rock and soul music, created bythe
Smithsonian Institution, tells the story of musical pioneers who,
for the love of music, overcameracial and socio-economic barriers
to create the music that shook the entire world.
Located at 191 Beale, on the corner of legendary Highway 61 at
the FedExForum sports and enter-tainment complex, the museum offers
a comprehensive Memphis music experience from the ruralfield
hollers and sharecroppers of the 1930s, through the explosion of
Sun, Stax and Hi Records andMemphis musical heyday in the 70s, to
its global musical influence. The museums digital audio tour
guide is packed with over 300 minutes of information, including
over 100 songs, and takes visitors attheir own pace through seven
galleries featuring 3 audio visual programs, more than 30
instruments,40 costumes and other musical treasures.
Beale Street has been playing the blues for more than half a
century. Named after an unknown mili-tary hero in 1841, it acted as
General Ulysses S. Grants headquarters during the Civil War.
But,Beale Streets heyday was in the 1920's, when the area took on a
carnival atmosphere and gambling,drinking, prostitution, murder and
voodoo thrived alongside the booming nightclubs, theaters,
restau-rants, stores, pawnshops and hot music. One club, The
Monarch, was known as The Castle of Miss-ing Men due to the fact
that its gunshot victims and dead gamblers could be easily disposed
of at theundertakers place that shared their back alley.
In 1983, the first club reopened on Beale, and one by one, clubs
and businesses moved into renovat-ed spaces, producing the most
vibrant streetscape and activity center in downtown Memphis and
theMid-South. What was once all vacant property has turned into one
of the hottest entertainment dis-tricts in the country. Over the
past 20 years, the street has gone from the epitome of urban decay
tothe number one tourist attraction in the State of Tennessee.
