Awesome, thanks. youtube.com has some really great stuff on there. I've been playing around on there for a while.

Actually, though, it is Albert Collins who is the Ice Man, not Albert King.

That is great guitar. No effects, no hyper-distortion, just a guitar plugged into a good tube amp and cranked. 8)

And what is truly great about this video is how Albert King (and his band) have such a great sense of dynamics. Sometimes he makes his guitar whisper, and then sometimes he makes it scream. This is something even many musicians do not understand.

Thanks, that was awesome.

That was sweet. Theres an AWESOME live vid of Muddy Waters doing "mannish boy" on some site that will take your breath away. Will post link as soon as I remember where I found it. Anybody know where I can find some more online vids of old blues players?
