    Anyone wanting to play blues guitar should start by listening to AC, in my opinion. Listening to his stuff gives you an ear for what sings, what sounds great over what chord, when to attack, when to lay back, how to sting, how to caress. How to build a solo based on what "sings." If you start at SRV, and move backwards, like I did, you find yourself trying to be SRV, which...its a small list of guys who can play that many notes, and play the blues. You start at Albert, this is the bedrock of electric blues guitar. This is what it should sound like. It will also show you that you don't need to fly around the neck; everything you need is cut out for you across the span of maybe 5-8 frets, and, perhaps most importantly, really, really ingrain the importance of working between major and minor instead of just hanging out in your comfortable minor pentatonic zone. You can't match his attack, his tone, his swagger, but you can certainly glean some incredibly important blues lessons from his playing.

      As a 'feel' blues player, SRV comes nowhere near this. Here is a masterclass in taste, control, attack, and 'less is more'.

      Thoughtful and insightful, exactly what most of us did. We heard Stevie Ray and really kind of missed the point. SRV was a freak show who entertained with astounding guitar licks but not-so-much the essence and message of the Blues. I would say that Stevie Ray was the best guitarist to ever play the blues but not nearly the best "Bluuesman" of all time

    I'm an Albert Collins neophyte and I absolutely love this music. I have noticed in watching a lot of these videos that he often played with some really talented musicians that had no necks. That guy playing the Stratocaster--no neck to speak of. Looks like the thing was just popped on there by Mattel. Another video of his had a neckless guy playing the saxophone. Amazing sax player. No neck. Impossible to behead. Guillotine-resistant. Like Ram Man from the Masters of the Universe.
    But I seriously love this man's music. I'm going to be listening to a lot more of it. I'm only sorry I joined so late in the game that he's no longer with us. We need to soak up as much of this as we can because their stories have to be told for future generations. Just having the videos isn't enough. They'll get "cancelled" somehow.

    So many great comments, and 100% agree. He pours out his heart, soul and blood, and he takes you from fire to ice in a single note. He doesn't just play the blues - he pours out his pain, heartache and longing. He keeps you right on the edge of destruction, hanging on that ledge, closer, then farther, then closer again, but never over the top. Clear as water, but roaring with fire, he is forever the iceman.

The original "Ice Breakers" were a sight to see and behold grunting and snorting behind Alberts screaming Telecaster as walked through the bar standing face to face with you throwing his pet licks right in your face..Saw him one night while burning on his Tele walk out the bar hail a cab in the middle of the street and get in it while still soloing totally freaking out the cab driver..yeah those were the days.
    and BTW he was the coolest guy to just hang with, the man bough me a drink and talked with me like he knew me for 20 yrs.
