Another tour of Memphis was to the Lorraine hotel, where Martin Luther king was shot, and the civil rights museum. It was definitely a somber tour reminding us all of the terrible days of segregation. We toured the museum and the hotel room King stayed in.

From there we went to another recording studio called Stax records. This studio was started by Jim Stewart and his sister Estelle in Jim’s father-in-law’s garage in the late 50’s. After he started getting some artists they leased a run down movie theater for their studio. He was more into what I call the beginning of disco music with Ike and Tina Turner, Isaac Hayes, Sam & Dave and others. He also discovered Otis Redding and the Staple Singers.
