Texas Blues – Albert Collins, Jimmie Vaughan, Lightning Hopkins

One of my favorite clips ever, take a look at the concentration and respect shown on Albert Collins and Jimmie Vaughan’s face as they watch one of the early Texas Blues masters Lightning Hopkins.

There are obviously many varieties of the blues, as you hear Jimmie talk about near the end of the clip – Texas definitely has its own interpretation marked by horns, big sound and honesty.
