Jeff Healey Band - "Roadhouse Blues" (cover) Germany 1989

Jeff Healey man, he was an inspirational man.

[@josephezra3337]

this guy is the most underrated guitarist of all time

[@paulcooper5748]

I agree he realy was brilliant.

[@saeedashtiani1968]

He was NOT. he just lived short. gone too soon.

[@ericaichinger4768]

For Sure no argument

[@hanskristianlauritsen8359]

Agree 100%

[@bolge7777]

Rumour has it Jeff was one of the only guys SRV was intimidated of..

[@TheMHD2010]

For those who call him Handicapped, think of it this way. Jeff could see better with his soul than all of us together with our eyes. Just listen and you'll know just how truly gifted he was.

[@lindaslider]

You said it!

[@andreweves2598]

Hell yea!!!

[@TheSpecialK45]

Hi I'm a musician, became a solid blues/rock pop drummer-played many many gigs....thanks to local jams i played live with other musicians-I didnt realize Jeff such a awesome guitar player-wished i could have had the opportunity to sit in with him and played some upbeat swing blues. .....now i listen to anything i can of Jeff on you tube!!! Im Thankful to be able to see and hear his music performances on here- im sure the bands he opened for had their musicianship challenged ....to follow Jeff after he and his band tore it up!!! A terrible loss to music and humanity- a humble gentleman who lost his eyes to cancer, grew up to be one of the greatest ever to play guitar-sing- I'm in awe.....im sorry i missed out on one of his concerts-Rest In Peace Jeff Healy.

[@peterhughes4832]

Absolutely spot on

[@patriciabutler4427]

You're damn right 💯

This is even better than in the movie version! God Bless Jeff, RIP His family can be so proud!

[@ASBOMAN]

If you're ever feeling sorry for yourself and think you can't accomplish anything, just listen to this man play. Blind since he was a baby and he learns to play guitar as good as anyone before or after his time. Total inspiration and a total genius.

[@petestaint8312]

Incredible guitarist and performer. Jeff is sorely missed.

[@davidringo1399]

amazing......he died of a very rare cancer....41 years old......Our loss,Heavens gain.....

[@dwaaag]

He literally had no eyes... what a blues legend. Never mattered. The blues is the blues regardless

[@rebeccamurrell7137]

Jeff was a blind man who had more talent in his pinky than most do in our whole bodies. He could not only make his guitar talk but he had a heavenly voice to match. Before you call him "handicapped" think for a second because the only think handicapped is your opinion 👌

[@rojardakar1313]

I adore Jeff Healey, I'm thinking he was also one of the worlds greatest husband and father.I wished I could of meet him in person and give him a hug.

[@proudvietvet2926]

Jeff was one amazing man. He did not let his blindness slow him down one inch! He applied himself to what he loved in his life, music! Thank you Dear Lord for loaning us Jeff Healey 🙏

[@mjboux6559]

Oh yeah ..I agree ..Jesus allowed us all to be touched by his heavenly gift 🎁 Jeff was truly a gift from heaven ....God bless him

[@fingerstylefan]

Always amazes me how Jeff never lost his place when he got up and jumped around like that. The guy truely was one of the best.

[@keithhallgren]

Seeing Jeff Healey live was the best show I have ever seen...

[@LadyStrangerRockNRoll]

Still listening to & loving the music of Jeff Healey in October 2016. I am a Fan Forever. RIP Jeff Healey

Well said!

[@rockdinosaur666]

Tyler Hogan: Great words. I had the pleasure of seeing the maestro twice in the early 90's and although I loved his music and sound really didn't appreciate what a great talent he was. Fantastic player.

[@bruzzgravely3470]

one of the best guitar players who ever lived!!!!

[@elvistochong1701]

One of the most underrated guitarists/musicians of all time. Thank you. This brings back so many memories.

[@Hirogebra]

Imagine my shock when I heard Healey for the first time at the age of 16 back then.

[@yoonglescomfydumb0309]

I wish I was born earlier and have been a fan earlier. I love him so much. When I hear him play, I close my eyes to feel the music and just simply listen to him playing. He's such a great guitarist. Every sound that comes out of his playing is amazing. I will never forget him. What a talented man!

[@upyanuts]

If this don’t make you tear up a little bit and feel something then nothing will.

[@simonbutler7036]

RIP Jeff Healey a true genius no risk, What planet do those who gave the thumbs down come from? I think its called Planet Born Dead.

[@sh4d0w126]

We have a younger generation. I'm a part of it. Before you judge, give your due credit to look the man up. I once hit my eye and couldn't walk straight for a day. Let alone pull this off on the nightly. Mad love

[@hazor777]

It blows me away that someone could play a 6 string the way he did - R.I.P. , Jeff Healey ......

[@cmed64]

What a shame we lost him at such a young age...his music rocks!!

[@lisachanley7667]

We lost an awesome, amazing, talented man when he went to sing with the angels!!!! RIP Jeff

jeff Healy was one of the finest guitarists to ever live and I am so thankful that i had the pleasure to meet him 2 years before he died. just as fine a human being as he was a guitarist

[@paulcooper5748]

What an honour i would of loved that.

[@knowerzark]

You’re a lucky man. One of the greats

[@axxmaster9131]

Jeff was one of the best guitarist I have ever had the pleasure to see. His eyes was in his heart and soul. He could see more than most of the great guitarist ever. When we lost him the world of music lost a lot. it was nice to have him as long as we did. RIP Jeff

[@davidsmelser9345]

Very nicely said!!

[@eeuts41]

Today would have been Jeff Healey's 50th Birthday..He died in 2007..He left us some good music.....

[@Royals0789]

The solo🤩🤩🤩

[@robertf3397]

I had the pleasure of seeing The Jeff Healey Band at HAMMERJACKS! in Baltimore in the 90's. They brought the F@%*ing house down with this song!

[@johnmarkell3203]

+robert f I saw them in Portland, OR in 1990. Jeff opened for ZZ Top. At one point Jeff was Jaming soo hard and jumping around on stage, and his pants fell down. While not missing a beat, reached down and pulled them up. The Place came unglued. WOW..

[@p3rf3ctlynina]

I love watching him...it amazes me how he learned to play and watch him stand up and just kill it and knowing he's feeling the music.....just awesome!

[@EBinCA]

Man, Jeff knocked it out of the park....again! He is one talented man who is missed by those who love the blues.

[@simonbutler7036]

when Mr JH left us we we robbed of a wonderful talented man....might have been blind but could let us all see and hear a genius, Thank You Jeff.

[@lemsdarkapprentice]

This is the first Jeff Healey I've ever heard and I'm hooked. Utterly awesome...no other words even come close to describing his skills. Sad his talents are no longer with us (apart from recordings and youtube).

[@mattr.9250]

This man played the blues!!!

[@rozzie101]

I had the chance to see him live, sadly.... i passed on the show. He played a small club in Vancouver BC (Canada). It was $20 to get in, I said..... naaaaa..... I'll see him some other time. That time didn't come.... my biggest regret.

[@patricksnyder7724]

Incredible. I’ve been playing for most my life and this guy has always stood out to me as one of a kind. Truly an unmatched talent.

[@bradnelson4778]

I have no idea why there are 315 thumbs down to one of the world’s best ever blues/rock guitar players. Anyone with an ounce of understanding of the genre would have an appreciation for his technical prowess and feel for the music. I can only cite ignorance as a possible explanation. And what a super tight rhythm section.

[@gordonboonthaitan5995]

HIS LEGACY WILL LIVE ON AND ON.

[@bran1dav]

Had the pleasure of seeing Jeff & his band in Australia around the same time as this clip, he was an awesome showman & a great slide guitarist.

Could have easily musically been the other way around. I'm sorry Jeff was not given the cred he definitely earned.c'mon I've saw people that couldn't hold a candle to Jeff called stars. Jeff was a musical genius. Do people realize how hard it is to play with all your faculties he basically played backwards blind try that.

[@fietsvriend]

I remember 1989(?) in Amsterdam the Netherlands, I lived in the Leidsekruisstraat the heart of the music- and theatercenter then, I watched out of my window on the first floor, on a crowded and warm evening (I think it was a Friday), suddenly I saw this same Mr. Healey, without a guitar but with a sort of "buddy", the piccolo of the American Hotel (Leidseplein), Healey held his hand on the piccolo's shoulder, they walked through the crowd. I guess they were going to cafe "Bourbon Street" 50 meters further. The same year that the hotel won the Dutch Hotel Award, Mr. Healy died. I'll always remember him walking on that street with his hotel guide, so cute
