Housed in the newly renovated Yazoo and Mississippi River Valley Railroad Depot, the museum presents the history of the Blues through photos, written word, artifacts and instruments.

CAT HEAD is Mississippi's blues store in Clarksdale since 2002 — and your first stop for 'live' music info and more! "It's like shopping in a juke joint. It's the store I always wanted to walk into but could never find," according to owner-operator Roger Stolle. (Stolle moved to Clarksdale to "help organize and promote the blues from within.") The rustic hundred-year-old building is packed with blues, Mississippi, Southern and Clarksdale souvenirs and favorites — including CDs, vinyl LPs, DVDs, books, T-shirts, hats, barware, artwork and much more. Customers can also shop CAT HEAD's large Web Store at www.cathead.biz. Clarksdale, Mississippi, features 'live' blues music 365 days a year. Stolle tracks (and facilitates) it, so can tell where to go, who to hear and what to see. He's also produced blues films and CDs — plus written two books, "Hidden History of Mississippi Blues" and "Mississippi Juke Joint Confidential. Musicians sometimes play out front CAT HEAD store for tips.
