A Great Loss to the Music World

M.Hicks Mar 03, 2008

I have enjoyed his radio show on 91.1fm each Sunday a.m. I hope this format will continue in his memory. A wonderful musician and entertainer, a great loss indeed.

Thanks Jeff!

I never knew what the expression, "Only the good die young" meant... until today. I saw Jeff and his band live at Lulu's Roadhouse bar in Cambridge, Ontario and they were bloody amazing.

When the rock n roll history books are written, Jeff Healy has easily earned his place. There's a saying: Don't die with your music (songs, singing) inside of you. From what I saw and heard from Jeff, he must have believed in that saying.

I'm lucky. I got to see Jeff Healy live and I own one of his outstanding CD's called 'Hell to Pay'. On that CD, Jeff does what in my opinion is far and away the best cover tune that I've ever heard entitled "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", written by the Beatles. George Harrison humbly guests as rhythm guitarist on that song; If you hear no other song or tune by Jeff then please do yourself the favor of downloading that song!

Jeff was playing at a tiny bar/club on Qeen Street in 1986 when I happened to stroll by. I was a fan before entering the venue. A Wizard forever, he lives on in his incredible music.

My Memory

I am saddened by the untimely death of Jeff Healey I have always been a great fan and devotee of Jeff his broadcasts and his musical ability and admired and respected the warmth and generosity of spirit that he demonstrated through his broadcasts of "My kind of Music" and during his on stage Performances. My respects and condolences to his family and friends which I am sure are countless

Never to forget...

Jeff, I always have been a big fan, and your music and memory will definately never die, and that's means worldwide !! Rest in Piece. With my deepest respects to your family and loved ones...

We have lost a unique chord in the song of life

E. Daniel Green Mar 03, 2008

In the spring of 1988 some friends and I went to a local bar, and were blown away by an unheard of blind guitarist named Jeff Healey. We returned every night that week (not believing what we were privileged to be seeing), and in subsequent years I have eagerly awaited the release of every album he has put out. I am truly saddened at the loss of this phenomenal musical talent, but that is selfish, because the truer loss is felt by his family and friends. May strength be with you.

Well I first heard Jeff on the "Johnny Carson" show and was amazed at the music....Great musician. Went out and picked up the "See The Light" on cassette and wore it out....My friends always picked on my cause I really connected with the music and talked aboot him all the time....My thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends who have lost a great man.

Jeff Healey forever !

Michael Vincent Mar 03, 2008

I have loved Jeff Healey's music since I first heard the See The Light album.He was truely one of my favorite blues guitar players.He was very inspirational. Any guitar player would be amazing if they could play like Jeff Healey did ,the fact that he played so well and was blind made him twice as amazing and inspirational.You will be sorely missed Jeff ! May you Rest In Peace. My condolences to his wife Cristi and their 13 yr old daughter Rachel as well as their 3 yr old son Derek. Just know kids your dad was truely one great man and someone to be truely proud of !
