Following a similar exhibit in Nashville, Sparkle & Twang: Marty Stuart's American Musical Odyssey will make its way to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland. Assembled from Stuart's personal collection of memorabilia, the exhibit covers four decades of rock, country, rockabilly, bluegrass, rhythm & blues and gospel music. It includes 300 items, including musical instruments, stage clothing, handwritten lyrics and photographs. Among them are Hank Williams' handwritten lyrics "Cold, Cold Heart" and "Your Cheatin' Heart." Sparkle and Twang opens October 30 and runs through March 1. Stuart debuted the exhibit at the Tennessee State Museum in 2007.
