Albert Gene Drewery, known as Albert Collins and
the Ice Man (October 1, 1932 – November 24, 1993), was an American electric blues guitarist and singer with a distinctive guitar style. He was noted
for his powerful playing and his use of altered tunings and a capo. His
long association with the Fender
Telecaster led to the title "The Master of
the Telecaster".
Collins was born in Leona,
Texas, on October 1, 1932. He was introduced to the guitar at an early age by
his cousin Lightnin'
Hopkins, also a Leona resident, who played at family
gatherings. The Collins family relocated to Marquez,
Texas, in 1938 and to Houston in 1941, where he attended Jack
Yates High School. Collins took piano lessons when
he was young, but when his piano tutor was unavailable his cousin Willow Young
would lend Albert his guitar and taught him the altered tuning that he used
throughout his career. Collins tuned his guitar to an open F-minor chord
(FCFAbCF), with a capo at the 5th, 6th or 7th fret. At the age of twelve, he decided
to concentrate on learning the guitar after hearing "Boogie Chillen'"
by John Lee Hooker.
Ice Pickin' is the sixth studio album
released in 1978 by Albert Collins.
I've got a cold, cold
feelin
It's just like ice around my heart
I've got a cold, cold feelin
It's just like ice around my heart
I know I'm gonna' quit somebody
Every time that feelin' starts
You treat my like a
prisoner
Because my hands are tied
Everything you do to me
Is stackin' up inside
It's a cold, cold feelin', tea
You're just like ice around my heart
I know I'm gonna' quit somebody
Every time that feelin' starts
There's a change in
me, baby
Once I was blind but now I can see
There's a change in me, baby
Once I was blind but now I can see
I'm gonna' put everybody down, baby
That ever made a fool outta me.
