Music reviews of The Complete Imperial RecordingsMusic Review: Collins Straight UpThis is Albert Collins from 1969 and 1970, in the studio because Bob Hite from Canned Heat told the folks at Imperial about his incredible talent. This was the break he needed. He began opening for groups such as the Allman Brothers and started to gain the national exposure he deserved. We don't get any information about the band backing him, in spite of the excellent notes by Pete Welding. What we hear is a tight horn section that probably got that way from playing with Collins on the many club dates he had in Houston, Texas. Disc One is mainly funky instrumentals with little of the blues he came back to when he joined Alligator Records in 1977. By the time we get to Disc Two Collins is singing and playing more of the blues that he does best. He seems to have become more confident in his singing ability. (This confidence grows to the point where he sings on most of his songs by the time he is signed to Alligator, when he really shines.) This 2-CD box is not his best work but a valuable collection for his fans. Digitally re-mastered for the Master of the Telecaster!
