Iceman is the tenth studio album by Albert Collins, released in 1991 by Virgin Records under the sub-label Pointblank.[3] It was his last studio album before his death from lung cancer, in 1993.

The album received mixed reviews, with Lloyd Bradley in Q Magazine describing it as "the songs are more interesting than what [Collins] does with them (..) as he operates more like a sideman than the star of the show".[3]
