"I feel so happy about the music in this album and I'd like everyone who listens to it to know how it came about and to thank everyone involved with it. The blues is all about feeling-if I don't feel it, I can't play it. My hope is that everyone who listens feels it. I know I sure did! Making this album was a new experience for me. Tom Hambridge and Richard Fleming wrote a song named Cotton Mouth Man. I really liked it. Tom said that he wanted to be my producer and make an album about my life. I thought this was a good idea and he invited me to Nashville where Gary Nicholson and Richard Fleming joined us in Tom's o'ice. We talked about my funky life. Gary and Richard played some guitars, Tom beat some sticks on the co'ee table, I blew some harp and we all shared some laughs. Most of the songs on this album came from those songwriting sessions. It is a great honor for me to know you wanted to work with me. I hope each of you have as many warm feelings and long-lasting good memories as I have about those sessions. Many thanks. Tom Hambridge, it's been beautiful to work with you. Thank you for being who you are. It makes me feel good that so many talented musicians, whose work I've admired for so long, have heard my music over all these years and were willing to come in to hel me complete this album. What a special gift from them to me. This is my special "thank you" from the bottom of my heart to Gregg Allman, Joe Bonamassa, Ruthie Foster, Warren Haynes, Chuck Leavell, Colin Linden, Tommy MacDonald, Delbert McClinton, Rob McNelley, Keb Mo and Glenn Worf. I'd like to say "thank you" to The James Cotton Blues Band: Darrell Nulisch, Tom Holland, Noel Neal and Jerry Porter. I love you all so very much; you are my family. You are always there for me. Bruce Iglauer has stood behind this album from the very start along with my Alligator Family. You all are the best. Thank you so much. Jacklyn, you know what you mean to me.
