It was a fun night of Jumpin Blues and other tasty treats at the Irish Pub in Hammelburg on 13 January.  We had a nice croud of Blues lovers

the audience included a few local musicians came by as well just to check out what all the talk was about. This new Blues Duo is storming the area and it was time to check it out. A cold winters night with Hot Blues guitar of HJ Köhnkow and emotional vocals of Robert Cotton!  Don’t get much better than That my friends…….don’t get much better than that!

It was a great evening of Traditional Blues on 18 November, 2017 at the Würtzburg  Residence Rot Wein Keller in Würtzburg German.  A marithon session, 5 HOURS, of tradiional Blues!

The house was overflowing with young and old Blues lovers. As you may know, Würtzburg is a beautiful historical university town. Before the show the Blues lovers were lining up outside. By starting time, the caverns of the Rot Wein keller were packed with Blues lovers like sardines in a can!    There was a nice mix of  seasoned Blues lovers and the young college crowd to keep the whole night on the edge.  The crowd keep getting larger and larger. we had to keep moving closer and closer together, moving the microphones, Amplifiers and ourselvescloser and closer together. By the end of the night, The players barely had enough room to move! But it was great fun, and another great venue to play the Blues.

                     Love All……….

                                         …………Love the Blues more.

until next time…    Robert Cotton

It was 13 & 14 October  2017, in a little town in Germany by the name of Hasloch in the Spessart Mountains. Something special was happening in the village this weekend that was …..most unusual. The small village was getting visitors. Some from around the world some from just across town. The old timers were not exactly thrilled about the sudden interest in their little village.

But no matter ……………….the Blues is in town!

                                                                        Eisen Hammer was the location. An old forge company still with the original forge from the 1700’s. Turns out that the owner (still owned by the same family) is a passionate Blues lover and wanted to do some thing special for some of his customers and for his town. We were the chosen ones….a weekend filled with Jumpin Blues!  What a great venue! What a great weekend for the Blues! With a 300 year old Forge as the back drop, Full of history, the spirits of the 100’s of those that spent their lives here, with the work they loved. We were honored to perform in this magical place………

Thank you  Blues Lovers in and around Hasloch, thank you Herr Rainer Kurtz for keeping the Blues alive.

Love All……….

                                         …………Love the Blues more.

until next time…    Robert Cotton
