  • When I was 3 years old my father decided we should be there with him. "There" was right "With Him" was totally wrong. Fujiyama was picturesque viewed from our back door in Mimoti Village/ Camp Drake, Japan.

  • Whoop de dooo

  • Mel Gibson is a good drummer !

  • Albert was one of the best!!........PBO

  • Blues is pure feeling.....waouh...Albert have it...great !

  • Wow.

  • To LEARN to play BLUES like ALBERT COLLINS, check out the BLUES MASTERS iPad app.

  • @shaseiful you dont play the blues like anyone, to play the blues in the right way, you have to put your own feelings in it

  • @andredidiergijon exactly! u have to feel blues. otherwise your notes will sound meaningless

  • @andredidiergijon Blues are an expression of true suffering in aural media. Bach organ work can make a man cry, just as so many blues guitarists and singers can make a man cry. Universal themes like losing a good woman, or losing a home, or losing a brother all hurt to the core: I beleive one has to suffer in real and meaningful ways to express such pain. One reason guys like Bloomfield sound so stale - for some it is an act. For others an expression of angst that must be released to the world.

  • That's funny as hell. Collins was popular in Japan and all over the

    world. But not in the Southeastern United States.

    Not funny.

  • @spoildn8410 three guesses why Martin Luther King was assassinated in Memphis?

  • Comment removed

  • this song is incredible, the instrumental and voice are matching perfect, its much better than any other version i have viewed before

    this is true art and they will never be forgotten, not like all those pop singers who don't know any bit of music, they only dream about money, but you can see in Albert's eyes that he likes what he does

    Respects

  • el disco que salio de sus conciertos en vivo 92 y 93 es lo mejor que he escuchado de el

    rumba en su tumba

  • Awesome ..fantastic .he is the one

  • 1:21 *************** yeah

  • Stevie Ray must have listened and learned from Albert Collins!  The more of Albert's videos I watch, the more I hear trademark Stevie Ray licks. Just goes to show you Stevie Ray wasn't nobody's fool.

  • Listen to Freddie King here on youtube - probably a bigger influence to Stevie.

  • However SRV always said that Albert Collins was his big idol

  • I thought his biggest idol was albert king? maybe both, but on songs like texas flood there are albert king licks all over the place

  • I love the sound of his guitar and the way he plays it, so much feeling, that's the blues must be played. I just wonder, I dont understand, why he always use the capo, in many diferent parts of the arm of the guitar. could anyone explain that to me? what is that for?

    thanks

  • albert use to play without a bass player and played both bass licks and lead in a combo feel , so he tunes the guitar to a special tunning

    thought up by himself, and ,since his early days kept this tunning and uses the capo for

    pitch to his voice.

  • Hey man, thanks a lot!! I had this doubt in my mind I just couldn't get it. You really cleared this doubt.

    Thanks again

  • The capo's there to accentuate the voice. One person may use it and another may not. It all depends on the pitch and tone of a persons voice. We are all blessed with the note of "A" tone in our voice but, the juncture pattern depends upon the person....perhaps more studying might help......just guessing

  • God only made one Albert Collins.

  • @bluesjuke no it didn't make any.

  • I gotta put a sweater on.His music gives me goose bumps.

  • @dt2717 they dont call him the ICEMAN for nuthin! :D

  • @dt2717 Won't help me.

  • king tone.

  • Albert is a master, but check out the mullet on that bloke with the Strat..!!
