[@craigcherry1413]

If I have the good fortune to make it to heaven I am going to look up Mr Albert Collins and shake your hand sir and say thank you to you for the genuine genius and joy you brought and continue to bring to this mortal world which is poorer for your passing. I trust you will not just be resting but continuing to rock the house like no one else could!

[@generalpatzer6893]

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!

[@binkydamauler]

was it the Great American Music Hall in SF?? if so, i was in the crowd that followed him outside. 🙂👍🏾 incredible show

[@edbur1]

@ 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.

[@Sassy2025]

What a sweetheart, I've never seen anyone sit down or shake hands with the audience before. A very appreciative artist 💝

[@Marco81blues]

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.

[@henryfrost8542]

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

[@christianneoriente1577]

WOW!!! AMAZING!!!

[@brentkelsay3439]

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.

[@jimcastile1905]

He's a national treasure.

[@zoneseven1222]

WOW!!! What a great band and what an incredible showman Albert Collins was. OMG! Just absolutely incredible.

[@tato4612]

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.

[@marleyhebard8948]

No other could come close to his tone. Albert was loud, but AWESOME!!!!!!!

[@Marco81blues]

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

[@billygalt9155]

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

[@multikulti6173]

He was a real STAR.!! I didnt kown his music.

Cant believe albert used his guitar strap on his shoulder like that

[@Rcaneneophyte8906]

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.

[@xdriger54321]

Freddie King do the same

[@Marco81blues]

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.

[@midnighttrucker19]
