(Blues) Albert Collins - Frostbite (1980)

Another in Albert Collins's series of fine 1970s and '80s releases on Alligator Records, FROSTBITE gives Collins fans more of what they've come to expect, raw, rootsy blues and unparalleled guitar playing. Collins's approach to the blues guitar is distinctive, and he alternates between high, singing leads and echoey, low-end motifs, manipulating space and drawing his phrases out with unusual rhythmic variation. His tone, too, is unique; it is heavy, dark, and somewhat cool (which gave rise to his "Iceman" moniker). Collins surrounds himself with an outstanding backing band of drums, bass, keys, and horns (here featuring three saxophones,a trumpet, and a trombone). The ensemble (the horns, in particular) fills out the funky bounce of "I Got a Problem" andthe insistent boogie of "Don't Go Reaching Across My Plate". Collins stretches out on every track, peeling off brilliant leads left and right. On "Snowed In", a down-tempo blues about being caught in a winter storm, Collins uses his guitar to replicate starting up a car's stalled engine. Here, as always, there seems to be little Collins can't manage on six strings. 01. If You Love Me Like You Say 02. Blue Monday Hangover 03. I Got A Problem 04. The Highway Is Like A Woman 05. Brick 06. Don't Go Reaching Across My Plate 07. Give Me My Blues 08. Snowed In mp3 320kbps with all artwork this is a bit good...think of all the superlatives you've ever dreamed of...and then some... ...and you still wouldn't even be fuckin' close...
