It's a nice place to visit, but...
Think tacky -- no REALLY tacky. Add in the most gawdy Christmas decorations you can think of. Stir in a drunk interior decorator. Add just a soupcon of creche scene. And finally a dash of gawking geeks. You now have some impression of Graceland - Elvis Presley's home.
It's one of those things that you have to see - once! It's a blend of plain old mid-sixties design and nouveau riche excess. It is a tribute to an admittedly great and influential artist with spin that would make Karl Rove proud.
P.S. When was the last time you saw a grave marker with a copyright notice?

I never knew the guy's middle name was "Aaron." My father would have been appalled!
