Having walked around Main Street and Madison Avenue, it was time to head down to the famous Beale Street. Due to the hassles with the Memphis bus system, we blew half the day at the Greyhound station purchasing tickets to Nashville and waiting for a local bus to take us downtown. Due to this, we missed the famous Sun Studio - oh well, something to do on a return visit sometime in the future.
Apparently, this is the birthplace of rock & roll, this was a great great place in the early evening although this is basically a street two blocks in length, there isn't much on the side streets either, the bars and hence the music is pretty much contained to one street in Memphis.
