Muddy Waters's House
MUDDY WATERS'S
HOUSE
Muddy Waters lived most of his first thirty
years in a house on this site, part of the Stovall
Plantation. In 1996 the restored house
was put on display at the Delta Blues Museum
in Clarksdale. Muddy Waters was first
recorded here in 1941 by Alan Lomax, who was
compiling songs for the Library of Congress.
Muddy Waters is known as the king
of Chicago blues.
