- <p> DIED. ALBERT COLLINS, 61, blues guitarist; of cancer; in Las
- Vegas. Known as the "master of the Telecaster," after the electric
- guitar from which he coaxed bitingly percussive licks delivered
- with a distinctively pure tone, Collins was a principal practitioner
- of the Texas blues and a major influence on rock 'n' roll: among
- his disciples was Jimi Hendrix.
