Joining the celebrated bluesman on Baby, Donâ€™t Tear My Clothes is a collection of some of the best musicians from around the world, each helping Cotton bring to life his vision of American roots music. Bobby Rush brings his signature chitlinâ€™ circuit groove to the title track, while Odetta and James pair up on the blues classic, â€œKey to the Highway.â€? Doc and Merle Watson join Cotton on a nostalgic country guitar/harmonica party on Leroy Carrâ€™s seminal â€œHow Long Blues.â€? Other roots music luminaries on board include C.J. Chenier, Rory Block, Dave Alvin, Jim Lauderdale, Peter Rowan, and Marcia Ball.
