The Best Hits on the Blues Highway

Amy Bizzarri

The legendary Blues Highway has played a key role in the lives of countless musicians. Running from Nashville, Tennessee, to New Orleans, Louisiana, there's music around every bend. The greatest blues singers, rockers, and country wailers have all traveled this fateful road, U.S. Route 61. From the two-room home where the King was born to the original Heartbreak Hotel to the crossroads where Robert Johnson allegedly sold his soul to the devil for fame, every stop has a story to tell.

Inspiring, practical, and entertaining, this is the premier guide to all the off-the-radar stops along America's Blues Highway that you simply must not miss. Author Amy Bizzarri, road trip expert and author of the bestselling guide to the Mother Road, The Best Hits on Route 66, provides a comprehensive list of 100 unique stops that you'll want to take a moment to explore as you journey along the fascinating, 730-mile route from Nashville to New Orleans.

Experience its world-famous music landmarks, tucked-away locations, and one-of-a-kind stops. Travel one section at a time, or plan an extended trip along the entire route.
