Great post. What a cast of players to have come together. And doin a GREAT Sonny Boy Williamson II song to boot. Cant wait to see James Cotton in May :) Thanks tmf714.
very interesting vid - never seen J.M. play unplugged before (always plays thru sm57 - into PA). I know Cotton is his dear friend and harp mentor! this was taken in my home town of Boston - damn how could i have missed it??!

Apropos of nothing, in 2004 or so, I was playing in a band that opened for Johnny Winter when James was touring in Johnny's band. That night, James played an SM57 into a Twin Reverb that was requested on the rider. Great player, btw!
