PAUL COTTON MUSICAL ARCHIVE

INDEX TO ARCHIVE Ready to take a journey back in time?...Well, here goes... The following has been researched from various recordings, books, internet searches & communications, discussions with Paul, other band members, & fans of Paul Cotton & Poco. What follows is by no means perfect & is at times slightly off topic. However, Paul’s history prior to Poco was sadly lacking in documentation until this site got underway in 1999. Its still a work in progress but hopefully it will provide some insight into the early history of one of the great singer, songwriter, guitarists of our time…Paul Cotton.
