    Default Jeff Healy

    Jeffs agressive blues licks are impressive to listen to, but he is even more impressie to watch playing. Not only is he blind but he also has a unique technique playing his strat.



    Jeff unfortunatly lost his battle with cancer a few months ago

    EDIT:sorry, this has been done before

    Awesome!

    R.I.P Mr Healey!

    Great musician, great person didn't mind talking to a fan.
    I was amazed when he took time to chat with us in a bar in TO where he was playing one night.
    This made me a even bigger fan. RIP Jeff.
