Alabama Music Hall of Fame

Alabama


Alabama has produced far more than its fair share of musicians: think WC Handy, Nat King Cole, Hank Williams, Wilson Pickett, Emmylou Harris and Lionel Richie. That's an impressive lineup! And they're all inductees at this Hall of Fame, which doubles as a sort of museum for those interested in a very niche sampling of trivia.
