MEMPHIS
Memphis used to be the New York of the south before Martin Luther King Jr. was killed and people fled for the suburbs after the riots left the city in ruins. It's the birthplace of rock-n-roll and soul - both infused with jazz and the blues. Visiting Sun Records, Stax Recording studios, or Graceland gives you a sense of not just the city's history, but America's cultural history.
