Product Details

Collins had been redefining Chicago-rooted Texas blues since the late '50s, but his Alligator years in the '80s brought him to audiences who recognized immediately what guitarists had known for decades: that open Fm tuning and a capo-driven attack made his Telecaster sound like nobody else on the planet. Cold Snap caught him at the peak of his late-career powers, a reminder that the iceman's bite never dulled.


The Master of the Telecaster's final Alligator album (1986) was also his favorite-and a Grammy nominee, too. With Albert shredding on the guitar and Jimmy McGriff manning the organ, this was guaranteed to groove: "Cash Talkin'," "Bending Like a Willow Tree," "A Good Fool Is Hard to Find," "I Ain't Drunk," "Snatchin' It Back," "Lights Are On but Nobody's Home" and more! Alligator.
