Perhaps almost a museum of folk art and blues history masquerading as a unique shop with books, music, posters art and trinkets celebrating the local area and scene. Frank was also quite conversational and friendly and gave some insight about the local community which was appreciated.

We stopped in during our Bohemian Delta tour with Chilly Billy. This is a really funky store. We purchased tshirts and posters but they have so much more than that. This is a must see in Clarksdale!

First pace to stop when you get to Clarksdale. Find out where the best music is for the week, pick up some CDs or vinyl , and get some souvenirs.

Very cool spot. I could have spent the entire day looking at Blues records, posters, shirts, books and other items that represent the music genre. A great representative for Clarksdale. I highly recommend this place to any one.

Richard is a knowledgeable source for the Clarksdale music scene and his website was invaluable for us as travelers. The shop is fantastic and has a good selection of books, music, trinkets, and is worth the visit.

Buono per turismo senza preteseHi Roger, no problem during the visit. I was hoping to find something much more interesting in the store. For example, the choice of vinyl records was very poor. From what I had read I would have hoped for something more. Even the merchandising was little for music lovers and much for the hit and run tourist. Clarksdale in general I liked it but in some cases, like the Red, it seems there is only the desire to sell something to the tourist on duty. Probably the blues is somewhere else.Good musicMichele

Best Delta blues music store I know. The owner stayed open late for us and spent 15 minutes discussing local venues and upcoming concerts. Great inventory of local music. Fabulous mix of industrial decor and folk art. Truly a unique place, worth the trip on its own. Be sure to ask the owner about his online video series on local history and music.

Cat Heads is a must-stop anytime Im in Clarksdale. The owner not only has a fine establishment for blues lovers, but is a successful blues historian and film maker, as well. If he is there and you want to know about anything local, be sure and inquire.There is a great selection of music, books, folk art, and other collectibles. If you are an avid fan of blues music (which you darn well should be) you will love this place. If youre not, Id recommend stopping inside anyway, you will still likely enjoy it.

The owner here was super helpful. He hand-drew a map that led me on an exciting 3-hour road trip through the Delta. He then told me about a local blues show. Without his help, I would have missed most of the magic of this amazing part of the country. Thank you!

Great Place for so Many Reasons! Roger the owner if friendly and welcoming. His blues knowledge is amazing and it shows in his store. He makes a list of music each week which is awesome as a visitor. We bought tshirts, cds and his book too. He has made a huge impact on Clarksdale and it shows. Thanks Roger for all your efforts.

This is a record, memorabilia, art, and book store. I saw old festival and show posters for sale as well. The owner is a local blues enthusiast who also organizes blues festivals and has even written a book on delta blues. If you want to know whats happening in Clarksdale, you cant do better than the information on the store web site, or just by asking the owner while youre there. If youre in Clarksdale its worth a visit.
