We saw him plenty of times at Stonybrook, he never put on anything but a fantastic show. He was always backup to someone though, and occasionally they were better than the feature act..
@TheMaconha420 I wouldn't swear to it, but it sounds as if the song is in the key of G. Since Cotton nearly always plays cross harp, paseaf is prolly correct.
@SianReynolds there is a double cd that takes cuts from an LP he recorded in the 60s with Luther Tucker on guitar and Sam Lay on drums. Better version than this, just fantastic. CD is titled "Dealin with the Devil" as I remember.
James is one hell of a harp player, Shame he didn't become more famous. i like his style because it is really unlike anyone else. like how he mixes up rhythmic lines and single note lines. definitely my harpman, mista cotton.
He is not more famous.?.. He is a legend.

This is good but it's all about Sonny Boy Williamson's version.
