Back in 1971, a 23-year-old blues fan used his meagre savings to record and produce his favourite band. Following his heart, he quit his day job with Delmark Records and began promoting *Alligator* and his new record company full time.

Over 30 years later, that company, Alligator Records, is home to some of the world’s premier blues and roots rock talent and is regarded by fans and the media alike as the top contemporary blues record label in the world.

The first release from Alligator Records was *The Siegel-Schwall Band* (1971).

Albert Collins is an American recording artist and songwriter, best known for his contributions to the Little Richard hits "Lucille" and "Slippin' And Slidin'". With a career spanning several decades, Collins has made a significant impact on the music industry. His unique style blends elements of blues, rock, and soul, creating a sound that is both captivating and powerful.

Influenced by legendary performers such as *Freddie King*, *Albert King*, and *T-Bone Walker*, Collins developed his own distinctive guitar-playing technique. Known for his mastery of the Telecaster guitar and his signature use of a capo, he created a sound that was instantly recognizable.

Collins' influence can be heard in the work of numerous artists including *Lonnie Mack*, *Robert Cray*, and *Buddy Guy*. His legacy lives on through his timeless music and continues to inspire generations of musicians.
