King, lived in Indianola for many years and never forgot the Mississippi city, returning annually for almost 35 years to perform for free at his B.B. King Homecoming Festival. Today, the bluesman&#8217;s legacy is preserved at the B.B. King Museum and Delta Interpretive Center which explores King&#8217;s life from his humble beginnings to his eventual success on the global stage as a 15-time GRAMMY winner and multi-platinum recording artist. Several of King&#8217;s guitars are displayed, as are his Grammys and even a recreation of his home studio.<\/p>\n                  <p><a href=\"https:\/\/visitmississippi.org\/things-to-do\/arts-culture\/b-b-king-museum-and-delta-interpretive-center\/\" class=\"lp-button\" >Learn More<\/a>\n      <\/p>\n          <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"lp-block lp-grid\">\n  <div class=\"lp-row right\">\n    <div class=\"lp-image\"\n      style=\"background: linear-gradient(-90deg, transparent, rgba(0,0,0,.4)), url(https:\/\/visitmississippi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-Crossroads-1.jpg) no-repeat; background-size: cover; background-position: center;\">\n      <div class=\"lp-caption\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        The Crossroads Sign, Clarksdale      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"lp-text\">\n      <h2>Down to the Crossroads<\/h2>\n      <p>Clarksdale is best known among music fans as the &#8220;Birthplace of the Blues&#8221; and the city where Robert Johnson, according to a popular legend, sold his soul to the devil in exchange for supernatural guitar playing talent.
