James Cotton |
My friends at Alligator Records have announced that Grammy winning harmonica great James Cotton will be postponing and rescheduling a number of appearances because of hip replacement surgery. He will be off the road from Nov. 10 through mid-January 2012.
In a message to his many fans around the world, Cotton said, "I'm sorry to have to disappoint my fans by postponing and rescheduling some dates, but I need to get this taken care of so I can be back at full force early next year. You can expect me to be dancing across the stage next time you see me."
Cotton's recent Alligator CD, "Giant," received a Grammy nomination.

Hip replacement is becoming a popular procedure that even famous names are to have it. As it is now a common procedure, I do hope that the devices used will be improved and that there won’t be releasing of a faulty hip device that will eventually result to a hip replacement recall and revision surgery. Additional surgery will also mean additional cost.
ReplyDeleteAlthough this can be disappointing for the fans, I think they will understand as with a healthier James Cotton, more shows can happen.
ReplyDeletePinnacle Recall
There have been a handful of famous people who have had their hip joints replaced and resumed their careers after recovery. There's football and baseball star Bo Jackson, cyclists Floyd Landis, and actress Jane Kaczmarek, more famously known for her mother role in the sitcom "Malcolm in the Middle" to name a few. All have gone back to their careers after recovering from hip replacement surgery. asr hip replacement recall
ReplyDeleteJames Cotton fans need not worry about their idol's temporary absence from the stage. With the technologies and advance medical interventions that we now have, I'm sure he will be back better than ever and happier because he would no longer be suffering from hip pain. Also, many famous people who have had hip replacement surgery have resumed their careers after recovering from the surgery. Unfortunately, there are also those who were not so lucky as they have been affected by the DePuy hip replacement recall.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if James is also included in the depuy asr hip recall?
ReplyDeleteGood thing that we didn't heard that James Cotton's hip replacement is not among recalled. If then, he will be in need of hip replacement lawyer.
ReplyDeleteJames would have needed the help from a Hip Lawyer.
