Book Description
Take the Mississippi River flowing through the heart of America, to Memphis. Go east and find the birthplace of the Blues and the heart of our American music heritage. Find a melting pot of delta blues, jazz, rock-n-roll, R&B, and gospel. Find cold brew and hot music. Find Beale Street. The stories and photos in Beale Street, Crossroads of America's Music capture a legacy passed on by the masters - a living, pulsating howling rhythm that smacks you at the turn of every page.

Three million people a year visit the authentic blues clubs, unique shops, art galleries, cafes, and other great attractions. They come for the celebrations. They come for great food. Some come just to experience the legendary Beale Street beat, the granddaddy of today's popular music.

This book is filled with never before published photos of a young Elvis Presley, B.B. King, Martin Luther King and more as they contribute to the heritage of Beale Street. Reach down and grab American music by its roots. Experience the legend of Beale Street.
