In 1941, as part of a Fisk University/Library of Congress study, researchers Alan Lomax and John Wesley Work III used Clack Store as a location to record blues musicians Son House, Willie Brown, Leroy Williams, and Fiddlin' Joe Martin. Locomotives can be heard in the recording. A Mississippi Blues Trail marker recognizing Son House was erected in Clack in 2007. Clack Store has since been demolished, and the store's sign was moved to the Delta Blues Museum in Clarksdale. Clack today is surrounded by RV parks and the casinos of Tunica Resorts.
