He played with Muddy Waters for more than a decade. He played with Howlin' Wolf, Sonny Boy Williamson, Janis Joplin, Paul Butterfield, Johnny Winter, etc. But no matter where he's played, with whom he's performed, like everybody else a blues icon needs to arrive at the gig, do his thing on stage, and interact with the fans on some level. In the case of superharp James Cotton, he spent loads of times with his fans.He sold out the Narrows Saturday night, had a crack backing band that was worth the price of admission by itself, and signed and signed and signed after the show. Not bad for somebody 70-something years old.
The Narrows loves you James Cotton! Stay well, 'cause we want you back as soon as possible.
