I first saw Jeff in a now closed down bar in Calgary that was known for it's blues. I thought this guy was assome, but why was he playing his gitar that way. Well it was a slide gitar and he was blind. Resently watched road house again and thought what ever happened to him and now found out this most talented slide gitarest is gone. The most talentented people you care about are taken from you far to soon, and then others just brand you forever. Your songs will live with me forever Jeff.
Jeff Healy was of the most unique guitarists ever! And he difinately had his own style.
I have never seen ANYONE play guitar like that! And its really a shame that he had to leave us so soon. He will be missed by MANY music fans!!!!
God Bless
I never got to see the man live myself which is one of my biggest regrets , However I had no idea he had gone untill I found thissite whilst looking for some videos of him on the net , I don't know what to say, I am actually holding my strat now as I type .
My first memory of Jeff was hearing blue jeans blues on the radio here in the uk , and thinking wow!! i have gotta buy this guys album,that was when I was 16, and he inspired me to pick up the guitar, now I am 35 and I still use alot of jeffs phrasings to day, .
God bless jeff , youre in good company buddy...................still cant belive it.
I first brought the see the light cd by accident, best accident i ever had, i still can tbelive the guy has gone.
Seen Live and new forgot the gig, as right at the front and only about 4 to 6 feet away.
Jeff i sore the light,
Rest in peace..........
I saw Jeff's "See the Light" tour in St.Pete,Fl. he truly tore up that guitar and in such a unique way.You just had to be there.He "opened my eyes" to other ways to attack your instrutment.
WHEN I FIRST STARTED DATING MY HUSBAND WE LISTENED TO THE JEFF HEALEY BAND ALL THE TIME. WE WERE AT THE BEACH LISTENING TO THAT PERFECT SONG WHEN MY HUSBAND ( boyfriend at the time...lol) THAT PERFECT SONG WAS THE AMAZING " ANGEL EYE'S". MY HUSBAND WAS KILLED WHEN OUR DAUGHTER WAS 3yrs OLD BY A HEAD-ON COLLISION BY A DRUNK DRIVER. THIS ACCIDENT CLAIMED 5 MORE LIVES, 4 IN MY HUSBANDS CAR AND THE DRUNK DRIVER; SO I'LL LIVE OUT THE REST OF MY DAY'S JUST WAITING TO HEAR THAT SONG THAT ALWAY'S BRINGS BACK A SPECIAL TIME IN MY LIFE. IN MY OPINION (and everyone has one) THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYONE EVER AGAIN COME CLOSE THE THE MOST AWESOME MAN OF MUSIC....THE ALL TIME GREAT "JEFF HEALEY" MAY YOU REST IN PEACE
AND RAISE THE ROOF-TOP OF HEAVEN WITH YOUR MUSIC AS YOUR GUITAR GENTLEY WEEPS....MY SYMPATHEY'S GO OUT TO HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN; THEY HAD A HUSBAND AND A FATHER THAT THE WORLD LOVED!
I only just heard today while on the computer about Jeff. I'am sadden to hear of his death, carry on Jeff with you talent in Heaven, you will be missed.
