Editorial Reviews

Product Description

'Dear friends, today live at Rockpalast: The Icebreakers!' With these words Albrecht Metzger announced the blues band of four, which the audience of the Westfalenhalle 2 in Dortmund, Germany didn't know much about yet on November 26th 1980. After the opener 'Sweet Home Chicago' and "She's So Fine", the "Master Of The Telecaster" entered the stage. Albert Collins was immediately attracting his fans' attention: "Listen Here". Seconds after the extraordinary instrumental intro the ice melted away: An impish grin in his sweaty face the Texan in his red outfit draw his unique blue notes from his Fender guitar. Also "Cold Cold Feeling" was an expression of Collin's talent.With his long thin fingers and without the commonly used pick, the Iceman treats the six strings of his instrument in an inimitable manner. Long improvisations and solos - also by his great band around saxophonist and singer A.C. Reed - are emphasizing his reputation as an experienced soloist and brilliant entertainer, evenhandedly. Also amongst his musical fellows, Albert Collins enjoyed a very high reputation. Even before the Rockpalast recording, the 1st October 1932 in Leona, Texas born guitarist was working with a great number of bands and soloists in jam sessions. The following years of the 90's Collins was surfing a wave of respect and sympathy: Gary Moore, John Lee Hooker, B.B. King and John Mayall hired him for guest appearances on their albums "Still Got The Blues", "Mr. Lucky", "Blues Summit" and "Wake Up Call". After this his own albums like "Cold Snap" and "Sudden Frost" were selling better and better and Albert played twice at the legendary Montreux Festival in Switzerland in 1979 and 1992.At the high peak of his career the "Ice Man" died of liver cancer on 24th November 1993 in Las Vegas. This DVD is a memorial for this likable master of the blues. Furthermore this concert contains with "If You Love Me Like You Say" and 'Frosty' two milestones of a fantastic career.

Review

Moments of ecstasy spurred by the signature frosty sound of Collins's Telecaster... Better-than-good.

Downbeat

A great performance from one of the coolest bluesmen of all time.

No Depression

This package is a good one for blues guitar students and fans.

The Sun Herald

Live At Rockpalast testifies to the tremendous originality and power that Albert Collins brought to the blues. Longtime fans will welcome it with open arms, and newcomers should brace themselves for a knockout punch!

Living Blues

A wonderful gift to blues fans. --Elmore Magazine

Great release. Wonderful live performances by Albert Collins - just put the cd’s on and play them all straight through. Like being there at the shows. Got to catch Albert Collins in Denver in mid1980’s when Debbie Davies was playing with him. These cd’s took me back in time. So great this was released! Highly recommended for Albert Collins fans and anyone who loves well-played electric guitar-based blues by a real blues warrior.

This DVD, CD of Albert Collins is so fabulous I can't even tell you. My husband places the DVD constantly. All you blues fans, here is one you don't want to miss. If you loved BB, you will faint over Albert Collins. I wish he had received credit for his talent while he was alive.

Very fine era for AC and the Icebreakers. 1.5 hours of pure blues bliss not to be missed by the avid Albert Collins fan. If you like this one, check out the Live at Onkle Po's a few days later (even longer show with what I believe to be stronger playing).

Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2017

I was compelled to start writing this review while listening to Albert Collins jam guitar solo on the almost 14 minute version of "Cold Cuts". I've been 'chair dancing' for a while now.
Somebody else wrote the DVD picture is kind of dark (agreed) but, still, it is easy to see how expressive Albert's face is as he aims to please not only the listener but the viewer as well.
LIVE AT ROCKPALAST CD/DVD is highly entertaining not given a 5 star review only because it is often difficult (for me) to know exactly which song he is playing. The solo instrumental jamming stuff always is good but often sounding very similar. But, that is a nit-pick. Plus, video displays (to us) the song title as Albert and The Icebreakers play. Really enjoy addition of solid sax player (Icebreaker) A.C Reed, also.

Almost hard to believe Albert Collins has been gone since 1993 making this DVD a must and very enjoyable watch and listen. Loud is better on the tv surround sound! Real nice!
Although I made that "similar" sound reference there is still a nice variety of music from the consecutive fun sounding "The Things That I Used to Do" and "If You Love Me Like You Say" to the great mellow, crisp cool-to-the-soul classic "Cold, Cold, Feeling" and the just as mellow and somewhat chilly "Angel of Mercy".
Albert's guitar is crisply calling the blues as I speak (write).
Arguably Albert's most popular song "Frosty" jumps in for 12 plus minutes of more entertaining blues fun.
I gotta' stop and listen...! And watch as Mr Collins walks into the crowd as he plays!
You can tell the German fans are lovin' it!
LIVE ROCKPALAST plays for an hour and a half on DvD.
Maybe just a few minutes shorter on 2 CD's.

The Iceman with his band the Icebreakers put on a great show at the popular Rockpalast event in 1980. The Icebreakers are Casey Jones on drums & vocals, A.C. Reed on tenor sax & vocals, Marvin Jackson on second guitar & the longest Icebreaker of them all , bass master Johnny B Gayden. Having seen Albert & his band many times in Minneapolis at the Union Bar. I was looking forward to this release & it is worth the wait The Icebreakers open the show with two numbers, Sweet Home Chicago & Shes Fine featuring Casey Jones on vocals & AC Reed on vocals on the latter of the two. How I miss those days of great music. After a great intro for Mr. Collins by Casey Jones, Albert comes on the bandstand & starts working his magic as only he can. Listen Here was a favorite of Alberts that he often opened with, followed by a heartfelt Cold,. Cold Feeling. Albert plays many of his crowd favorites & has the crowd in the palm of his hands The audio is Stereo, & the video is fair to good, maybe a tad dark, but it is just fine by me for a 1980 performance. Albert puts on a good show & looks sharp as he usually did. If you dig Albert, it is a good bet that this will bring smiles & good feelings. Miss Albert so much, great to have this 95 minute performance of him & his great band the Icebreakers.

2.0 out of 5 stars Schwache Aufnahmequalität, nervige Musik.
Reviewed in Germany on February 10, 2017

Eigentlich war Albert Collins ein recht guter Blues-Musiker und ein bemerkenswerter Gitarrist.
Diese Aufnahme aus dem Rockpalast 1980 jedoch taugt nicht sonderlich viel. Der Star schreit statt zu singen, die Musik nervt fürchterlich, da alles gestresst und gehetzt wirkt und kein solides Zusammenspiel erkennbar wird.
Dafür ist die Aufnahmequalität auch sehr schwach - streckenweise übersteuert, sodass allein dadurch die Musik wenig Vergnügen bereitet.
Zwei CD's und eine DVD : viel zuviel und zu teuer. Kann man darauf verzichten..

Cette évaluation ne traitera que du DVD, puisque, jusqu'à maintenant, je n'ai pas écouté les CD. Je vous avouerai avoir été grandement enthousiasmé par la prestation de M. Collins. Je ne le connaissait que sur disque, et sur quelques, rares, apparitions sur les DVD d'autres artistes, et il me semblait un musicien effacé, voire timide. J'avais tort, vraiment tort. Non seulement est-il excellent guitariste, excellent chanteur, il sait aussi bouger sur scène, et il est excitant à regarder. Seul bémol. et il est léger, j'aurais aimé qu'il chante plus, qu'il nous offre un peu moins de pièces instrumentales (peut-être aurez-vous une opinion différente ?).
