"From Beale Street to Oblivion" is the eighth full-length studio album by rock band Clutch. It was produced by Joe Barresi (whose credits include The Melvins, Kyuss, Queens of the Stone Age and Tool), and released on the DRT Entertainment label. The album was released on March 27, 2007.

The album title comes from a line in the song "The Devil & Me", and is named after the real Beale Street in Memphis, Tennessee. The song "One Eye Dollar" is a remake of the same track from "Jam Room". The track "Electric Worry" is partial cover of the Mississippi Fred McDowell song "Fred's Worried Life Blues" and features Eric Oblander of Five Horse Johnson. A music video has been produced for the track "Electric Worry" and has been presented on Headbanger's Ball.
