Like no other electric blues guitarist of his generation, Albert Collins illuminated the stage with incandescent energy whenever he plugged his lethal Telecaster into an amp and let fly with his frigid, minor-key-laced licks. The Texas-born Collins, whose seminal early recorded output included the icy instrumentals "Defrost", "Sno-Cone", and his signature work "Frosty", had a bone-cutting sound that was immediately identifiable as his alone. The Master of the Telecaster's two triumphant performances at the 1992 Mt. Fuji Jazz Festival underscore his bone-cutting brilliance; backed by his Icebreakers, Collins rocks the house with the blazing "If You Love Me Like You Say", "Honey Hush", "Put the Shoe On the Other Foot", his immortal "Frosty" and plenty more, mesmerizing the throngs attending the outdoor festival day and night.
