Memories of Jeff Healey

My Memory

Pascale J. Mar 03, 2008

When i first saw Jeff roaring his blues with his beautiful face his powerful voice and his long blond hair, I was so touched. The little I knew that he spent his life battling illness. What a valiant hero, what a discreet person. Jeff it is so sad to see you being beaten up. I am so sorry that you went. You were such an inspiration, and you most definitely are an unsung hero, JEFF. Thank you for all your incredible courage, your discretion and your profound and energetic creative music.

May Jeff be at PEACE now with our Lord. Jeff was an inspiration to all of us who suffered some sort of disability and taught by example to go after your DREAMS. His music lifted the Hearts of all who had the privilege to hear him . He lifted our spirits and will live long in our memories and in his music.! My sincere sympathies to his Family and Friends.

I remember meeting Jeff for the first time, he and his band were playing at Albert's Hall...he blew our socks off and you realized at this early stage of his career that he was destined for greater things...yet another candle has been blown out too soon, but he's gone to play with his good friend Stevie Ray whom he missed dearly.

My Memory

Crystal Mar 03, 2008

I remember being a teenager when Angel Eyes came out...and I remember thinking what a beautiful song, then I found out who Jeff Healy really was, and was absolutely blown away by his talent despite his disability. As I grew up and got into playing guitar, Jeff was always an inspiration to me, when I got fed up and didn't want to play anymore, I would think about Jeff, and find my inspiration again....if he could live his dream....even being blind, then so could I, no matter how tough it got...Thank you for many wonderful years of memories and music Jeff, you will be missed....my condolences to his family as well.

I remeber the first time I saw The Jeff Healey Band on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Like everyone else I was blown away by this 3 piece ensemble. But now, that day seems so long ago. Thank you Jeff for all those years of great music. It may be a cliche but it's true...You will be greatly missed. Thank You.

I played several of his songs in bar bands and really respected his playing. Rest in peace, brother.

A Great Musician

Neil Boyle Mar 02, 2008

I had the great fortune to see Jeff Healey perform at Alfie's Pub (Queen's U.), in around 1988, playing in front of about 150 people. He had wit, warmth and, of course, killer technique on the guitar. A truly memorable evening celebrating the joy of music. So sorry to hear of his passing. He seemed like a genuine person of great spirit. He will be missed by many who never had the chance to know him personally.

My Memory

Marlo Mar 02, 2008

I remember how much I loved the song "I think I love you too much" and also "How long can a man be strong". Loved and respected his craft especially in light of his disability. A true artist is gone and will be missed.

My Memory

Wendy H Mar 02, 2008

I had just met my partner, when he sat me down and played a song for me, telling me to listen carefully to the lyrics. That song was Angel Eyes, and had me in tears by the end of it. That was really my first introduction to Jeff Healey, but it certainly wasn't my last. Much love to his loved one's and friends. A sad, sad time indeed.
