Well it looks like we have another musical Hall of Fame in the state of Tennessee to praise this month!
In the great musical city of Memphis, construction has begun on a 12,000 square foot facility, which is scheduled for completion in one year’s time. The Blues Hall of Fame originated in 1980, by the Blues Foundation, an organization dedicated to preserve the history of what is arguably one of the most important musical genres in the world. The Foundation is affiliated with over 175 Blues organizations around the world and uses philanthropic endeavours to help past Blues legends in need.
The Hall of Fame will not only give these great musicians the recognition that they deserve, but will house rare recordings, and film that previously had no real home. Officials estimate 100,000 visitors in its first full year of existence, and we for ones are looking forward to pilgrimage to the home of the Blues.
Our hats of to you Tennessee! We are coming soon.
