Albert Collins
Frostbite

Listening notes

Albert Collins’ Frostbite is a 1980 album issued on vinyl by Sonet, catalog number SNTF 837. Filed under Blues, Modern Electric Blues, and Texas Blues, it presents eight tracks across two sides and documents a set of titles that balance concise song lengths with one extended performance to close.

Side A opens with If You Love Me Like You Say (4:07), followed by Blue Monday Hangover (5:35), I Got A Problem (4:34), and The Highway Is Like A Woman (5:04). The sequencing places four mid-length cuts together, each clearly timed and listed, establishing the album’s first half with pieces ranging between just over four minutes and five minutes thirty-five seconds.

Side B begins with Brick (4:35), then moves to Don’t Go Reaching Across My Plate (3:44) and Give Me My Blues (4:13) before culminating in Snowed In (9:12). This side combines its three shorter selections with the album’s longest track. Snowed In, at nine minutes and twelve seconds, is the most extended piece on the record, in contrast to the shortest track, Don’t Go Reaching Across My Plate at three minutes and forty-four seconds.

As presented here, Frostbite’s structure is straightforward: four tracks per side, clearly labeled A1 through A4 and B1 through B4, with precise durations supplied for each selection.
