“the history of recorded music”
The Musicians Hall Of Fame and Museum is now open in the heart of downtown Nashville TN. Those of you who previously visited the museum will know that there is something of interest for everyone. From Hank Williams Sr. to The Red Hot Chili Peppers and from Motown to Southern Rock. The Musicians Hall of Fame is the one and only museum in the world that honors the talented musicians who actually played on the greatest recordings of all time. Some like Jimi Hendrix are well known, while others like L.A session drummer Hal Blaine are not as well known to the public, but have played on hundreds of hit records from Elvis, Frank and Nancy Sinatra,The Byrds, The Mamas and The Papas and The Beach Boys, just to name a very few . The Musicians Hall Of Fame And Museum has on exhibit the very instruments that these musicians used to record many of these classic hits. The Museum will constantly be adding new exhibits for you to enjoy from all genres of music . The museum is divided into cities that have a history of recorded music. Cities like Detroit, Nashville , Muscle Shoals , L.A , Memphis and N.Y . All of these places had musicians who were there when the recording industry was evolving and were able to play whatever was needed of them regardless of style . They had nick names like The Swampers, The A TEAM, The Memphis Boys , The FUNK BROTHERS, and The WRECKING CREW . Some of these studio bands actually became hit bands themselves like” Booker T and The M.G’s” and” TOTO” . During the late 50′s , through the mid 80′s , these groups of studio musicians played on over eighty to ninety percent of all the records recorded in these music centers .

My wife and I were on an open bus tour and it stopped at the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum. I said, let's check it out and jump back on the bus when we're finished. Sounds easy peasy right?... Read more
We were looking around for something different in Nashville than what's down on Broadway and found this cool museum. It's fantastic! A lot of attention to the details of America's recorded music... Read more
