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.

Great museum - This is a great museum. It is well set out tracing the history of rock and soul. The exhibits give a real insight into that history and how music has changed over the decades. A great extra is the audio includes several collections of songs across the decades. Recommended

Rock n Roll your Soul to this museum - I think this tour should be included in the Memphis City tour because this museum expounds on the artist at Sun Studio. This museum is a must visit while in Memphis. It shows a short film that talks about various artist and then you walk through the museum at your own pace. I loved that they gave you headsets which allows you to hear about the exhibits and listen to music. I learned so much and recommend everyone visit the Memphis Rock n Roll Museum.

Good museum - Enjoyed the museum. I wish we had allotted more time. If you enjoy the blues and history give yourself at least 90 minutes.
