| The musical pedigree of Grammy Award winner James “Superharp” Cotton consists of a veritable who’s who in the world of the Blues. Inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in 2006, the Smithsonian Institute in 1991, and winner of countless W.C. Handy Blues Awards, he has shared the stage with B.B. King, The Rolling Stones, Johnny Winter, the Allman Brothers, Santana, Bonnie Raitt, Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin, Sam and Dave, The Grateful Dead among many others.
An orphan at the age of nine, he was raised in Mississippi by his mentor, Sonny Boy Williamson, who remains famous for his many unique songs and innovative Delta Blues harmonica style. As a young teenager Cotton befriended Howlin’ Wolf and joined forces with him playing Mississippi and Arkansas juke joints for two years. During that time Cotton hosted his own afternoon radio show in West Memphis, AR and also recorded “Cotton Crop Blues” and three other songs on Sun Records in Memphis. In 1954 when Muddy Waters needed a harmonica player, he found Cotton playing a club in Arkansas and took him to Chicago. Cotton remained with Waters for 12 years not only playing shows but also recording with him on Chess Records. One of the highlights of that period came when Cotton arranged the ever-popular anthem for the blues, “Got My Mojo Workin’, “ which was played for the first time by the Muddy Waters Band at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1961. In 1966 Cotton formed his James Cotton Blues Band which continues to showcase his immense talent and keeps him one of the most sought-after, hard-driving, seminal blues musicians touring the world today. The year 2008 is Cotton’s 64rd year in the entertainment business. What an amazing adventure “Superharp” is experiencing with his little harmonica. | |||

The Fleetwood Mac story is an episodic saga that spans more than 30 years. It is the saga of a British blues band formed in 1967 that became a California-based pop group in the mid-Seventies. In between came a period where Fleetwood Mac shuffled personnel and experimented with styles, all the while releasing solid albums with chart topping hits such as Landslide, Rhiannon, Go Your Own Way, Don’t Stop, Dreams, Say You Love Me, Hold Me and many others. The band Meetwood Flack consists of some of the area's most talented musicians who are joining forces on this project to present these great songs as true to form as imaginably possible. March 14, 2008, Meetwood Flack will hit the stage at the legendary Stanhope House in Stanhope, NJ. Certainly a night not to miss! | |||

| The Bell Bottom Blues was formed in May 2007, but each member's passion to create music and love for the great Eric Clapton actually began some 35 years ago. Because of this passion, love and talent of each member it wasn't long before the band was ready to perform for live audiances.
Through the vocals and lead guitar of Al Caprara, slide, rythm & lead guitar of John Kurdyla, funky base of Eric Collier and Beats of Lou Caprara, the band has captured the likeness of Eric Clapton and his bands from the early psychdelic days of Cream through his classic hits of his solo career. | |||
