Malcom Cottle brings video to life. malcomcottlemedia.com is a bevy of projects, videos, and music that he has curated while enjoying time as a drummer in Freemont Pike, front man in Sons Of Horace, and curating the Sloan Museum of Discovery in Flint.

Born in Ontario, Cottle has balanced dual citizenship with a passion for all things music, audio, video, production and hits his mark at all things-creative. Cottle was one of the producers of Great Affection--a video curated by MMHP's own Gary Johnson for the Bay County Historical Museum, which showcases all of Madonna's area's of Bay City, offering a glimpse into her time here.

The original Count--Butch Burden is still thumping the bass and singing the songs. Count & The Colony were the up-and-coming band in the mid-60s, hitting the road with Question Mark & The Mysterians, as well flagging shared management with Lilly Gonzales, touring in the Count's teen years. The road was no stumbling block, providing city-to-city exposure, parties, and dedication to craft which remains to this day. Then the money dried up. A Tangerine Records contract with the Ray Charles Estate included four originals that have never been released.

Burden took his rich vocals, showmanship, and musical drive back home to Mid-Michigan where he continues to reside, 60 years later. His shows are documented in this two-part series through time, story, and epic detail. The bands that he jammed with, the music he created, and the longing to continue to be in a cover oriented group, Count & The Change, giving him a lifetime as a musician.

Here in Part 2 of 2, Butch dives into the hotel residencies with Amphagas that put the spotlight on the band with the likes of Elvis, Led Zeppelin, Little River Band, George Benson, Liza Minelli, and moments with Robert Plant and Patti LaBelle that made up fantastic memories. We would like to thank Butch's wife Cindie for assisting in bringing archives and reminding Butch of memories along the way. Part 2 of 2 is ready to serve now in the MMHP in the 989!
