Bonnie Blue: James Cotton's Life in the Blues 2022 Directed by Bestor Cram

"How I got this far I'll never know, it just wasn't my time to go."

The story of James Cotton, harmonica powerhouse, whose music shaped blues and rock. Orphaned at 9, Cotton’s life tracks America’s history—from the post-depression cotton fields of the Mississippi Delta to being mentored by the original Delta bluesmen, to Chicagoland’s artistic reinvention to the live music scene in Austin, Texas.
