Genius breakdown of the two licks to show the player how to “land the correct notes” in time and how they fit over each chord in the progression. Great Job!🙌🏻🙌🏻🍎
You and that MM Tele make a great combination. The color contrast really show allows the fingering of what you are teaching great. It's been really awesome watching your channel grow.
So many fantastic blues players for us all to learn from. However, something always draws me to Albert Collins and Albert King. Very different styles but both brilliant.
I had a blast with this one, thank you so much! I didn't think I could sound like the late great Albert Collins until I found this easy to follow but very effective lesson. Thanks so much once again!
Thanks for this Corey. Some really straightforward ideas which sounds so good and you really highlighted how that 'not-quite-on-the-beat' phrasing works so well which is kind of amazing - it 'shouldn't' but it does!
While the choices are simple, the attitude in these phrases is the hardest part for me to nail. I feel insecure while playing and I have a soft touch - I practice kind of avoiding making noise imagine that. It takes a while for me to work up to going for sounds like these, and hearing them in isolation like in this lesson is something that inspires me and gives me a base line of sorts. Like, "if I can sound like that it's cool", so it'd be ok to be a little louder than normal.
Making sounds or bad noises is like falling off your bike when you're learning to ride. Takes years to refine your sound...don't be too tough on yourself.
@@coreycongilio thank you for taking the time to reply. Your instructional videos here and a truefire course I got really inspired me to get back to the guitar. I had all but given up on learning to play, but when I saw some of your videos and thought “hey, that’s fun, I think I just might be able to do that”, it really brought me back and gave that nice feeling of discovery and reward and passion. I think I progressed a lot due to your instructional work. So thank you, really.
Great thank you for uploading, for me this it is getting more depth, my playing and i do love the style of Albert collins , as a entertainer, singer and guitar player with his own distinctive power house style, Thanks i will integrate this in my guitar playing, I wish you well, Namaste my friend.
Great lesson Corey, closest to Albert I’ve heard … I shook his hand once in the late eighties mid solo when he used to walk out into the crowd, the thing I noticed was how cold his hand was considering he was mid concert.. no wonder he was the ice 🧊 man…
I loved this! One thing you always mention in your videos, but haven't dived into is rhythmic phrasing.. how maybe you could take the same lick as you did and switch up the rhythm to fit all kinds of blues, a slow one to a more uptempo shuffle, etc. Keep it up :)
My arthritic hands have kept me from playing for the past couple of months. This lesson is like an ... ahem... icepick to the brain. The Esquire is coming out of the case tonight, hand pain be damned.
Great lesson Corey! (I think I still have a Albert Collins Hot Licks audio cassette laying around somewhere.) Hope you make an "Iceman" course sometime soon 'cuz I'm in.
The two rock behind me is a Bloomfield drive. I also have a TR TS1 that is off camera. That’s running to an OX behind me. They both turn on when I turn on my power strip! Pretty simple rig for this vid TR, UA Golden been and the OX

Great lesson ! Albert Collins doesn’t get mentioned enough, his playing is so amazing
Thx so much, Jens! Totally agree. All the best!
This is so cool. Albert Collins always plays like his hair's on fire. You really captured his sound and feel here.
Totally! Thx!
I love how Albert could make his guitar talk !
Absolutely

Corey you look like your having fun and it makes the lesson so enjoyable as I love to play the guitar with such enthusiasm also!
You and that MM Tele make a great combination. The color contrast really show allows the fingering of what you are teaching great. It's been really awesome watching your channel grow.
Thx so much Bryant!
Wow what an awesome sound.
So many fantastic blues players for us all to learn from. However, something always draws me to Albert Collins and Albert King. Very different styles but both brilliant.
Doesn't always have to be super technical, just feel it!! Fun lesson!!
Thanks Corey!! Very cool Albert Collins lick. And as you point out, we can spend years working on the feel and nuances of his playing!
Glad you enjoyed!
You have this magic to turn a good weekend into a perfect one 🤩 Thank you !
Ah thx so much!
No one can be AC, but you've come as close as I've heard, brother. Great stuff!
Thx so much!
I can pull off most standard blues playing but Albert Collins' style eludes me a bit, which is why he's my favorite blues guitarist. Nicely done.
Albert definitely had his own unique style & sound. I was fortunate to see him a handful of times & he never disappointed. Great showman.
I had a blast with this one, thank you so much! I didn't think I could sound like the late great Albert Collins until I found this easy to follow but very effective lesson. Thanks so much once again!
Love the lesson! Love how you broke down the timing, and (various) techniques. Really great to milk ONE lick (and pieces) over the whole 12 bars
Great...thanks!
Excellent! Every time I saw Albert play it was a religious experience. Piercing. You nailed that snippet it quite well.
Corey-you are fast becoming my favorite to watch, learn, and admire! Love that tele... now I want a gold double bound too!
Wow! Thanks so much!
Really diggin' these lessons! Thanks, Corey.
my pleasure!
More Albert Collins lessons pleaseeee!!!
Thanks for this Corey. Some really straightforward ideas which sounds so good and you really highlighted how that 'not-quite-on-the-beat' phrasing works so well which is kind of amazing - it 'shouldn't' but it does!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Love this Albert Collins stuff!! Another amazing lesson!
My pleasure. Glad you enjoyed!
thanks Corey ive been looking for something like this for ages , that second lick will keep me busy for days , greetings from Scotland !!
Great! My pleasure
What a beautiful tele

Blues is all emotion. Play your moods. Evoke pain, sadness or joy...in your notes.

@@B__Mer Lol isn’t that amazing? Doing that requires so much confidence and attitude, it’s awesome to me.
Hi Corey, this is just what i was looking for, now let's see if i can master this awesomeness!
Thank you for this super lesson on Albert King, very interesting. Super guitar tone!
My pleasure!
Very authentic tones there, Corey. Nice GM tele, too.
Thx!

Outstanding lesson!
Influenced by Albert Collins big time.
Great lesson Cory, thanks. He really was one of a kind Albert Collins.
Thx...yes indeed
Tabs really help with the beat, thanks.
No problem!
Hi Corey I played this the other night in our local bar , now everyone thinks I'm a Blues Legend !! ha ha thanks so much !
That’s awesome!

Thx! I do a bit of this in a phrasing lesson on the channel but, there’s always room for more!
My arthritic hands have kept me from playing for the past couple of months. This lesson is like an ... ahem... icepick to the brain. The Esquire is coming out of the case tonight, hand pain be damned.
Go for it!
Don’t know if that icepick reference was on purpose but it fits
Great lesson Corey! (I think I still have a Albert Collins Hot Licks audio cassette laying around somewhere.) Hope you make an "Iceman" course sometime soon 'cuz I'm in.
Nice!!!
Thanks. This was just what I needed to get out of a rut.
Great!
Excellent!
👊🏼
You got to do one of these for Albert king!
I’ve actually done a few Albert King lessons on the channel!
@@coreycongilio I'll have to dig a bit deeper. Just about to buy your beginners course for lead blues too.
Wow thx! Yeah, Jump into my channel a bit further or just search my name and Albert!
Super homework lesson, thanks for the great technical spice !
My pleasure!
That guitar is bad to the bone and Corey is my favorite guitar teacher on the internetwebs
Thx so much!
Excellent!!!!! (as usual), Thank you Corey. Mordi
Thx!!
You have no idea how my worlds collided to come here for this!
thank you
Love this one. Still struggle on that rake though!
Takes time. Glad you enjoyed it.
Cool lesson, just found your channel and for sure will sub.
Hey thanks!
The Ice Man was unique.
Thank you for introducing me to my new God, AC
When will the Albert Collins course be available?
good interpretation - but - whats about the - capo - that albert always uses ??? try it out on 7th fret - very hard to bend !
What sound set up are you using?
It sound amazing very close to mister Collins.
How can I get that sound on my Squier telecaster affinity
Great lesson Cory! Do you prefer Teles with the controls reversed?
I suppose so, reversing this was just an experiment to get the volume knob closer.
Jumpin'!
How do we get the backing track? Thanks
Links are always in the video description or comments for reference. Here ya go coreycongilio.ac-page.com/albertcollinslick
And Albert did it without a pick
You’ve got a lot of great gear, I see two UAOXs, both on, also notice a Two Rock CRS but it’s not on, what amp/s are you using in this one Cory?
The two rock behind me is a Bloomfield drive. I also have a TR TS1 that is off camera. That’s running to an OX behind me. They both turn on when I turn on my power strip! Pretty simple rig for this vid TR, UA Golden been and the OX
@@coreycongilio thanks Corey
Is that just a tele to the amp? What amp? I can feel a little bit of reverb there.
Tele to two rock TS1. Universal audio Golden Reverberator
@@coreycongilio thanks!
@@coreycongilio I will try to do it with my Les Paul Studio in my frv-1 in my bassman. 🤣🤣🤣😂🍻🍻🍻
Standard tuning !
As soon as u go to that neck pickup it’s no longer Albert Collins lol
Ha exactly!
The Albert Collins’ spice rack . . . tasty and HOT!
