  Delta Blues Museum is wonderful visit. It showcases the history of blues music, with a special exhibit to Muddy Waters. Make sure you check out the photos along the walls as they are rare photos of blues artists and well worth a look. Also, check out Super Chikan's guitar that he made himself.

  This museum didn't really do what it said on the tin. It was a random series of brief biographies and photos of bluesmen who often had no connection to the area. I was hoping to learn something in depth about Delta Blues - I didn't need the overview this provided. The few artefacts were poorly labelled - there were a number of guitars in cases but no explanation as to what they were or who they belonged to. A missed opportunity, particularly as this museum is apparently subsidised.

  A lot of information, maybe a bit scattered - could be organized a bit better, good collection of items and facts. Learned a lot about blues, its legends and heroes.

  My wife and I loved everything about it. Very moving. We'll be back. The exhibits about Son House and Muddy Waters are particularly affecting. A great place.

  A smart single storey building, converted from the railroad station, with a fantastic shop. The exhibitions are fascinating and detailed, featuring instruments, stage outfits, photographs - you name it. They've got Muddy Waters' cabin!I learnt a lot (like most Brits my age, I think I know all there is to know about the blues), including musicians like Razorblade, whom I met outside Ground Zero later that same day!Do go - this place is great and needs your generous support.

  Interesting stories but could be further developed. Would have been nice if you could listen to music from the persons they are presenting.

  Small but with lots of interesting information. Largest exhibits are Muddy Waters and Charlie Musselwhite, but there are many, many smaller exhibits.

  They are expanding the museum and will be twice the size. A little awkward to move in a historical sequence, but okay.

  A 'good' museum and gift shop - not over the top however definitely worth taking the time to see the legends of Blues photos and more current artists too.

  We love the Blues but don't really know so very much about it. This place tells you lots of real info. It's very well put together and there's a super little shop too
