James Cotton dead at 81

Just saw where the great James Cotton passed away at age 81 in Austin Texas, loved his harmonica playing and his great vocals and is one of my all-time favorite bluesmen.

Those four tunes he recorded for Sun Records are great, and of course he did so much since then. Is there anyone of the old Chicago blues greats left besides Buddy Guy?
