Om
Hurtige fakta: Vintage indspilningskonsoller, håndskrevne tekstark og scenetøj ligger ved siden af interaktive lytte-stationer, der giver dig mulighed for at isolere blæsere, vokaler og grooves. Mere end 2.000 artefakter kortlægger soul-æraen, og et livsstørrelse genskabt kontrolrum giver dig chancen for at stå der, hvor sessionsmusikere indspillede hits.
Højdepunkter: Et fuldskala genskabt kontrolrum lader besøgende skrue op for separate spor, isolere op til seks instrumentkanaler, så Booker T.s orgel eller Isaac Hayes’ baryton kan træde frem i mixet. En museumslogbog viser originale sessionsnoter med eksakte optagelsesnumre og musikerkreditter for sange af Otis Redding, et lille, knasende detalje, der ofte trækker folk tæt nok til at læse håndskriften.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes, the galleries and outdoor plaza require walking.
- Head straight to the Studio A reconstruction and the listening booths for the richest audio experience and best photo opportunities.
- Arrive early or late afternoon on weekends to avoid school tour groups, midweek is quietest.
- Browse the exhibits before visiting the gift shop so you do not carry purchases while exploring.
