Albert Collins – Deluxe Edition (CD)
Product Details
The "Master of the Telecaster" earned that title honestly, playing a Fender Telecaster strung with extra-light strings and capoed high up the neck to produce that unmistakable ice-cold tone that influenced a generation of blues and rock guitarists. Collins came up in Houston alongside fellow Texas blues architects like Johnny Copeland and Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown, and his unique minor-key attack never sounded more focused than during his Alligator years.
Albert was reborn on Alligator, churning out the most prolific output of his career. Here are over an hour of the blues guitar god's key Alligator cuts: "I Ain't Drunk," "If You Love Me Like You Say," "Melt Down," "Master Charge," "Get to Gettin'," "Cold Cuts," "A Good Fool Is Hard to Find," "If Trouble Was Money," "Too Tired" and more. Includes previously unseen photos and a mini-poster! Alligator.
