Albert Collins, Explain Riffs, Bending and Vibrato in conversation with Keith Wyatt.
Guitarist and blues singer.
He had many nicknames given by fans as "The Ice Man" ("Iceman") and "The Master of the Telecaster."
Anytime my blues guitar playing starts feeling lifeless or I feel I’m overplaying I go back and listen to Albert Collins for a few days.
Yeah, absolutely. I guess overplaying is a major trap you find yourself falling into more often than you (should) like once you've reached a certain level of dexterity on the fretboard... Going back and listening to the masters like Albert Collins will teach any sensible blues guitarist that the number of notes you play is definitely NOT what it's all about.
I'm here for the same reason :)

I met Albert in the mall in Las Vegas he was alone having coffee 9 in the morning. I was the only one that recognized him I told him I loved him and how much joy he had brought me and the rest of the world. What a lovely man
Bet you made his day.
AC's tone and touch were just sick. One of the most original Blues guitar players ever. Respect and RIP.
Infidel14? For real
Thanks for watching
Albert was a genius... his tone, his tuning, his style... he thought outside the traditional box of blues.... great stuff...
Interviewer: How did you develop that? (talking about vibrato)
King: Well... I just FELT like doing it....
@@felipez7113 you mean collins
@@AdrianAndersson yes, my bad!
Thanks for watching
@@AdrianAndersson He sure meant that. But anyway, all of them Kings, too... 😅
No one had a better conversation with his guitar than Albert Collins.
Thanks for watching
You are so right I've seen him have this conversation with his Tele
One of the greatests. Totally underrated.
Thanks for watching
Who underrates him apart from you?
This guy is the reason I bought a telecaster!! The Iceman was a killer!!
Thanks for watching
Telecasters are so unforgiving when you hit a wrong note lol!
Yes sir mr.collins rest in peace sir much love
RIP Mr Collins. No body ever came after to do it the way you did..
Thanks for watching
You can feel every note, what a legend
Thanks for watching
Keith Wyatt was my favorite teacher at GIT. He's so great at what he does, and was impossibly kind to me.
Thanks for watching
Great player, and innovator. What he got out of a few notes in one position is incredible. One of the few blues guys of that era who could actually follow the changes and knew where he was.
Thanks for watching
One of the very few whose tone you can recognise after listening to one note! An absolute master! ❤😊
Saw him live when I was 14 at a catholic high-school dance in Seattle about 1969-70 his performance is forever burned in my memories ❤
Is card read "you pay i play". Absolute legend
One of the true greats
Albert was so funky and he had so much fun with his music!
Albert Collins was an electrifying guitarist. Incredible player.
Biggest takeaway: At the time of this video its clear that his Telecaster had essentially became an extension of Mr. Collins himself; he didn't need to put any thought into it whatsoever, except when he had to explain it to an outsider. Something for me to work on, thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching
Man, i just love and miss Albert so much.....what a great inspiration!
Thanks for watching
My favourite blues guitarist, hands down. Him and Jeff Beck inspired me to chuck the plectrum and start playing with the naked fingers....and I love it!
Thanks for watching
Yeah Jeff Beck was awesome. He just kept getting better in his age.
Nobody leaves this place without singing the blues
Albert was one if not the greatest.
Thanks for watching
What a talent Albert Collins was. Truly amazing guitarist and person.
Thanks for watching
Nobody leaves without singin the blues...
Albert was the best, so glad I got to see him play more than a few times. There’s never been anyone like him... badass player, the master!
Thanks for watching
Soooo Good. Flawless, energetic and exciting. What a player. My next guitar is a telecaster. RIP Albert.
Thanks for watching
I discovered Albert through my brother in the late 1980s when I was first starting to get into blues music. 'Cold Snap' is his best album.
I saw him in Jacksonville Florida in the mid 1990's. During one song, he walked all the way back to the lobby area, followed by a small crowd, including me, clapping in time, and he was shaking people's hands with one hand while playing with the other. His whole hand was calloused from all the playing.😅
A much cherished memory!!!
Even when playing as a co- guest with other artists, his unique sound was instantly recognizable.
Albert's kickin' ass , one of greatest blues players ever !
Thanks for watching
AC played two dances at my high school in the early 70's.
The man was such a profoundly talented blues artist.
Thanks for watching
Tremendous stage presence. All the best blues guitar players come from Texas. There are so many great ones there that you never heard of that would blow your mind.
Thanks for watching
Albert was not only a master musician and entertainer, but he was a great person.
I just can’t help but smile whenever I hear AC play.
Nobody plays like Mr. Collins. The 3 Kings sometimes can be imitated, to a large degree, but I ain't heard anyone sound like Mr. Collins yet.
Totally true Bernard. His style and groove can't be matched completely. I wish I was around when he had Buddy Miles jamming on drums with him.
Im not sure Freddie king can be imitated that man is a legend and has soul, funk and rhythm and plays like no body else and really unleashes on guitar you are think albert and bb yes but freddie is in a league of his own..
Stevie ray Vaughan is the biggest imitation of albert king and albert collins i love stevie but even he would admit albert was his favorite guitarist makes sense why he sounds like both... but r.i.p stevie he was a force too be reckoned with for sure love stevie.. theres other guitarist you hear in stevies playing such as lonnie mack and his brother jimmy and jimmy hendrix obviously he is a product of his own environment so naturally he sounds like most and several native texas guitar players..
Thanks for watching
this master's touch was simple but so outstanding.
Thanks for watching
God he’s great, grossly underrated… always left out of best blues guitarist lists.. ya got Srv, Albert, BB, Jimi, clones galore but I haven’t seen one Albert Collins clone, think about that one
To me hes better than Jimi and Srv
I'm starting now out of frustration I think I've finally found the style of playing my soul connects to I'm gonna get a tele and put my Les Paul on a break
Thanks for watching
His style is so difficult to replicate.
A lot of what he’s doing is simple on paper, but very difficult to actually make it sound anything like he did. Absolute master.
Love this guy, so much natural talent and so humble with it.
Thanks for watching
Back in early 2000 I learned to play from this dude… was a video my cousin had… cool to see him with Albert collins
Albert plays some funky blues. Not many do that as good as him. His vibrato is different than any other blues guitarist and with how many there are, he's instantly recognizable, like BB and Albert King.
Thanks for watching
The man was incredible. Great stuff.
Unique and just a wonderful player!
Thanks for posting this.. Old but great video.. Legend
Thanks for watching
Wooooo nelly. This is a masterclass. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🔥🔥🔥 thanks for sharing
As a kid starting guitar I was listening to Albert and had no idea he was using a capo or different tuning. No UA-cam and you would not know know unless you were lucky to see him live playing and walking out into the street with his 40 foot guitar cable. Genius
Such a legend man! His tone was sick!!!
Thanks for watching
This was great!!!! Love Albert's playing.
Thanks for watching
The Master!
The young man interviewing Mr. Collins is the son of Keith Wyatt, another great guitar player and teacher.
That is Keith Wyatt
@@theraspful I guess the joke went over your head Mr. Nickerson. 🫡
@@DonVal86 I guess you have to learn to tell a joke
Thanks for watching
Omg, I'm 45 and I still looooooovvvvee hearing these dudes break down they're style......I'm so inspired, this is my first time seeing this video.....
Huge fan......oh and no pick mind you,...🙄🙄. I couldn't ever sound that good with Just my fingers
Thanks for watching
they're having so much fin jamming it brings me joy
Thanks for watching
Yeah!!
On stage .. When I see I'm boring.. I'm starting to play something like Albert did. Short, energetic licks.. And it's works!! :D I love this man!
Thanks for watching
I miss that man more than words can say...!!!
Thanks for watching
The best
legend ..incredible
Thanks for watching
So good !

I saw him take the roof off the Musicians Institute in Los Angeles. He took no prisoners.

The Albert Collins look at 4:05
Thanks for watching
GREAT VIDEO
Thanks for watching
The touch, the feeling were uncomparable. Right. The sound and the beat were nothing less than magical. Fine.
But, in the Name of the Lord, HOW could he hold the shoulder strap that way without losing it ?? 😄😄
The only player with the "ashtray" cover on. This guys are the inventors of modern music. Nowdays guitarists are just wankers.
Lorenzo Ciliberto yes I want to trans Siberian orchestra. Everybody was saying how great it was & I was thinking that was the biggest wank fest I’ve ever seen in my life. Long hair, distortion. Legs spread stance.
Thanks for watching
MASTER!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching
Albert fell on hard times in the 70s and returned to construction. One project he worked on was at Neil Diamond’s house
I believe the pop legend recognised the guitarist and encouraged him to return to gigging
But his feeling and passion for the guitar persists. Keep the blues alive. thanks for the comment.
Awesome !
l don't think Albert would be embarrassed to think he picked a little George Benson feel, amongst his own and numerous others.The man oozes with soul. RIP
Thanks for watching

Good stuff! Thank You.

Jeu impressionnant..
Thanks for watching
Bowie definitely used him very well for the song Underground
Seeing idiotic comments like the one from that Toy Boy guy makes me lose hope for humanity. Then a few notes from Mr. Collins restore it for me, reminding me of the truly beautiful things that exist in this world. Thank you, Mr. Collins. You will be greatly missed.
Thanks for watching
Aint nobody WILL be like HIM!!!

Thanks for watching
Masters talking!

1:30 “that sound, just the one note.”
Yeah, LONG time to get it right.
Edit: even longer, one note right?
Years, if not decades. Woodshed.

Get on stage, lead and entertain the audience, feel the dance groove and have a million original lines in your arsenal instead of asking how many fingers...... 😀😀😀
Love albert what year was this interview.?
I've been a huge Collins fan for ages and I just recently discovered a player named Pee Wee Crayton who seems to.have a lot in common with Albert. Pee Wee came up a decade or so earlier but does anyone know the connect ... if there was one?
they're both from texas but pee wee is more in the style of t bone walker

Has anyone figured out his tuning?
¡Por favor,ponele subtítulos en español! Saludos desde Argentina.

Only one note and you know it's the iceman
3:03

Love Albert too!! Does any one know how He tuned? He says D natchul but it appears that the capo is on the 9th? fret and Albert appears to be shaping a C. Im confused, if anyone knows, please share. Thanx 🎸😎
I saw him use capo at 5/7/9
Albert tuned to an Fm (like fully barred Fm at the first fret). He always used a capo.
@@realcoyotekings What with F and D being close related to start with, maybe, Albert was just using a different name? "D natchul/ F m? Jus wonderin✌😎

Nobody could make a note sting and sing like AC.
Pity the cameraman wasn't on the job!....focus
Thanks for watching
Masters class. Notice he dropped it to D-Minor or D-Natural on the coda. Lol, now fantasize how to play it with only your thumb and index finger..
