Cotton contributed unique and challenging slide guitar to live performances, '' Strictly Personal '', '' Mirror Man '' and '' Trout Mask Replica ''; for which he was renamed Antenna Jimmy Semens. He left the Magic Band in 1971 after being attacked by temporary drummer Jeff Bruschell and having ribs broken. But this was probably just the final straw, having experienced the reclusive 8 months of rehersals for Trout Mask and the mind games that Beefheart played on band members. He renewed his professional relationship with Merrell Frankhauser (of The Exiles) in a band called MU . Despite two critically acclaimed albums there was no commercial success, and he retired from the music business. |
