If you ever find yourself in Clarksdale "Home of the Blues" and site of The Crossroads (where Robert Johnson and others are said to have sold their soul to the devil)...
The photo above is the crossroads itself (click on it to get it up nice and big) On the right you can see the, rather tacky, crossed guitar sign.
There is only one place to stay, The Shack Up Inn; pretty much unchanged, externally, from an old cotton plantation, commissary, cotton gin and sharecropper shacks but internally fitted with modern conveniences for a comfortable stay (my best sleep since I got here).

so - can you still see anything at the crossroads, or is that just legend ...... not like the yanks to make it into a tourist attraction. Didn't Hull do well yesterday - can you believe it? Stoke and Hull in the premiership .... amazing .x
So where's the crossroads pic, Jake? With or without the shade of RJ lurking.
