Highway 61 - John Lee, Muddy and Bessie. Clarksdale, USA

The portraits of J.L. Hooker, Muddy Waters and Bessie Smith are possibly still on the wall of this Clarksdale, Mississippi liquor store. "One Bourbon, one Scotch, one Beer" would be very approprite song. I took a slow trip to New Orleans in 2011. It took me along Mississippi River to some iconic places of American music. Muddy Waters died 41 years ago on April 30, 1983 at age 70. So this is my, and Ron Brower (the guy who painted the mural) tribute to this blues icon.
In retrospect, I should have waited till John, Ben or Meredith come out of the liquor store and wave to to me.

♫God said, "You can do what you want Abe, but
The next time you see me comin' you better run"
God said, "Where do you want this killin' done?"
Out on Highway 61....♫ (Bob Dylan)
