ON THE ROAD IN AMERICA - Episode 4: Mississippi Delta – The cast sees another side of America when they travel to the rural South. In Clarkesdale, Mississippi, Jerdi Lambert’s farm offers a glimpse of a more prosperous era, while the decaying buildings of the city’s business district tell a different story. The cast gets a first-hand introduction to blues and gospel at the Sunflower River n Blues Gospel Festival, and take in Sunday services at a black church. The visit wraps up with an old-fashioned fish fry and a jam session with local blues legend Super Chikan.

Directed by Mary Lambert.
