Highway 61 Mississippi Blues Trail Long Sleeve T-Shirt 

Every sale of this Mississippi Blues Trail marker shirt directly benefits the Mississippi Blues Trail, making new markers and maintaining existing ones. 

This particular Blues Trail Marker is located in Tunica, Mississippi at the Gateway to the Blues. Look for the big neon sign on Highway 61 just a few miles below Memphis. Stop in, take a picture of the marker, and tour the new, state of the art museum. 

The front of the Highway 61 Blues Trail Marker reads: 
U. S. Highway 61, known as the "blues highway," rivals Route 66 as the most famous road in American music lore. Dozens of blues artists have recorded songs about Highway 61, including Mississippians Sunnyland Slim, James “Son” Thomas, “Honeyboy” Edwards, Big Joe Williams, Joe McCoy, Charlie Musselwhite, Eddie Shaw, Johnny Young, Eddie Burns, and Mississippi Fred McDowell. The original route, now called Old Highway 61, was just west of here.
