The Crossroads marker stands where Highways 49 and 61 meet, tied by popular legend to Robert Johnson selling his soul for musical genius. Treat the exact location with a little scepticism; the story matters more than the traffic island.
It is still worth the stop. The marker captures how Clarksdale sells, remembers, and mythologises the blues, and it gives visitors a quick physical point for a story that otherwise floats across half the Delta.
