George Thorogood & Albert Collins live Aid Concert 1985
Albert Collins (October 1, 1932 – November 24, 1993) was an American electric blues guitarist and singer with a distinctive guitar style.
Collins was noted for his powerful playing and his use of altered tunings and capo.
His long association with the Fender Telecaster led to the title "The Master of the Telecaster".
Albert Collins was an inspiration to a generation of Texas guitar players including Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimmie Vaughan.
He was amongst a small group of Texas blues players, along with Johnny "Guitar" Watson and Johnny Copeland,
who together shaped the legacy of T-Bone Walker into a modern blues template that was to have a major influence on many later players.
