Just absolutely the classiest guy in the industry. Wow. What a showman.

Mr Albert Collins, has Resse Winnan on Keyboards in this Show 🎸🎹🎸🥁🎸

I saw Albert in like 1978 in a tiny packed club of 70-80 people. He was amazing. He had the 100' cable and went outside the club wailing on the guitar!

In VERY loving memory of Mr. Albert Collins (1932 - 1993 R.I.P. Gone but NOT forgotten)

Such a humble man,my favorite bluesman by far,such fun,such talent,incredible music,thank you Mr.Collins,never forgotten by those touched by you and your amazing music

@ 13:19 I saw Albert many times in the 80's and early 90's, I always thought the way he would kick his leg out at the end of a tune was badass and cool as f'"*k! Albert was "Cool" personified, dude.

Tight band Mr Collins and Mr. O'Brian....two of the best from Texas.

FIRST SHUFFLE I EVER LEARNED AND STILL THE BEST!!!!!RIP ALBERT!!!!

My eyes is brimming with tears. My beloved Gramps used to hear this song all the time.

What a guy! Total class act. Heard he once went out into the street playing guitar and ordered a pizza which was later delivered to the stage 😅 RIP Albert, a true showman.

Great show. Great band. Great player. Great man.

Damn I miss Albert. This clip: Beautiful. Wonderful. Classy. Classic. Cool. Soulful. Funky. Brilliant. Amazing. Original. Crowd pleasing. Did I miss something?

What a complete and utter badass!

WOW!!! AMAZING!!!

I am so glad to have seen him and his band play live. Absolutely brilliant. He sure was special and unique 🎸🎶🙏

He quit music at one point, because he had to earn a living for his family and he wasn't making it yet, trough music, his wife was the one that made him pick it up again because he was just depressed. Maybe that's why he was so apreciative of everything.

Albert and his band were obviously very talented but for him to go out in the crowd and shake so many hands while playing one-handed ...and to sit down in an empty seat and play some killer guitar...wow! Quite impressive and too funny! That audience was clearly thrilled.

i saw him the very night that he played with george thorogood at live aid in richmond,va..in 1985....shout out to to rob noll who was 2nd guitar..it may be the best show i have ever seen...albert went out to the median strip on broad st while he was playing!

ALBERT ...........JUST ........OUTSTANDING !!!!!! ..........WILL NEVER SEE ANOTHER ......ALBERT ....THANK U FOR THE SMILES AND FEEL GOODS U GAVE US >>>>>

this guy .....truely had a blast when he played .............THE BEST !!!

this was really cool you won’t find anything like it

Had the great fortune to see Albert in San Francisco in 1971. Grand!

I was in Antones the night he walked out on the street and I think ordered a Pizza from the place behind the club. Also the great Rubys BBq there as well.A great time in my life.Austin was a different place.

Thanks for posting!

met him once, what a great person !

Brings JOY to the people.

Open F tunning, marshal amp, no effects, everything on 10 including amps reverb. To make it even more weird, Capo on 12th fret ahaha. That is why he sounded like cutting trough ice. The amp settings is the main thing, the neighbours love it too :D

No offense, but Albert played only fender amps. Silverface Quad Reverbs with 12" JBL's.

Albert Collins will always be a legend up there with the king of the blues JOHN LEE HOOKER and ROY ROGERS to name but a few. Music to die for in my opinion. Play on in heaven 🙏❤️🇬🇧❤️🙏 Dec twenty three❤️💎❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 rythem and blues 💙 paradise

I sling the guitar around my shoulders just like the great Albert Collins did. I injured my left shoulder in a motorcycle accident & was unable to play for 3 years until Albert Collins inspired me that that things can operate on a totally different level. Rest Easy Mr. Collins, thank you for the noise.

It's actually smart, playing guitar can really take a toll on your body and even injure you, some musicians have to quit guitar because of it, it's no joke. Sitting with a classical guitar several hours a day can do that for you, imagine standing up with a electrical guitar, which is way more heavy, with a strap around your neck, not good. I bet Albert experienced some neck and back pain before adapting to this, even so, this won't be good for that right arm/shoulder.
