From the cotton fields, street corners and juke joints of the Mississippi Delta came a new kind of music ??? the blues. Considered by many to be the only truly indigenous American music, this form that has influenced musicians worldwide is deeply rooted in Delta soil. And so is the man who helped spread the blues as its foremost ambassador… Riley B.B. King.
Welcome to the story of B.B. King.

At a recent Washington County Chamber of Comerce gathering in Greenville, I was pleased to visit with folks at the BB King Museum. As people visit our area to explore the roots of American Music, a jaunt across the bridge is certainly in order. The blues trail runs up into Arkansas as well.Here at Turn on Inn Hotel aka Pecan Grove RV Park we offer a bridge to huistory just a few miles upriver from Greenville at the center of the Lake Chicot curve. We are a fun and mellow way station.
