FAMOUS GRAVES: Jeff Healey Gravesite | Famed Blues Guitarist, Rock Legend, Roadhouse Movie Star

[@alexscott9605]

Legends never die, he will always be missed

[@Hamigal]

Jeff was so young. Only 41. That is so sad. Great guitarist. Loved his music.

[@marshfilm]

My band opened for Jeff in Halifax in the early 90's. I was so blown away by his ownership of the fretboard that I started practicing guitar blindfolded :) RIP Jeff

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Wow blindfolded that’s crazy! Thanks for sharing that Sven!

[@MikeJBlues]

Saw him in concert in Seattle in 2000. Glad I got to see him live. Truly missed

[@SabrinaBraden-n7n]

It was amazing how he played the guitar, miss him and Stevie Ray Vaughan.

[@kodiakbearson8815]

Jeff was one of the greatest guitarists to ever live. His guitar playing was revolutionary in the fact that he played it across his lap and used his thumb to play combined chords that would simply blow the roof off of any venue he played. Listen to his song "See the light" and you wil TOTALLY hear his gift. Rest in peace Jeff, you definitely left your impression in the blown minds and ears of an entire generation.

[@terriecrawford482]

Such beautiful souls who will never be forgotten. Patrick Swayze and Jeff are both performing the best concerts together in them great big sky’s.

[@tonyawaters4718]

Still cry till this day .. Jeff and SRV are so missed till this day .May they always RIP

[@quentinjohnson2255]

I am a huge fan of Jeff's! I did not know he had passed away until now. I have to say, other than Stevie Ray Vaughn, I have never seen a more soulful white boy blues guitarist than Jeff! The boy made you feel his songs and that is why he was such a rare talent to me. An amazing guitar player and singer. I will miss him and his music. I will continue to discover more of his music and always be a fan of his and the blues. R.I.P. my brother!

[@MrGuitars8]

I Miss you Jeff and your Amazing Guitar Playing , I still listen to your Music this Day and it's 2021 !!!

[@richardsoutdoorworld5284]

When God puts Talent in Someone , No Handicap can Hold them back !

[@Breezy-bv9te]

Amen to that!

[@debramicallef9996]

I agree Jeff was brilliant I read he had Cancer that sadly.made him blind. I knew a woman who played piano like a professional and yet she was Blind it must be they have selective hearing. I have on DVD the movie which Jeff Healy was in the film alongside the wonderful Patrick Swayze may they both rest in peace 🙏❤️❤️

[@debramicallef9996]

Roadhouse was the name of the movie

[@russellheath2423]

I know the feeling

[@monkeyface6139]

What kind of God takes a man like that at 41 ???

[@almakehlerbrown3935]

Jeff Healey was one of the most underrated artists ever! I loved The Jeff Healey Band! Thanks for sharing your story of Jeff with us Scott....Thanks for taking us to his final resting place. 💛 I was and still am amazed at his version of "Angel" by Jimi Hendrix.

[@annfury3558]

Beautiful song rip Jeff you was was absolutely beautiful in looks and your music🥰😘😘❣❣🙏🏼

[@charlotteduncancharlottedu6423]

Yes he was

[@wendellburkhart3307]

One of my favorite guitarist on the planet and I know Canada is very proud of this guitar genius.

[@SharonBrown-yn6fz]

Canada 🇨🇦

[@deborahdean]

I fell in love with Jeff Healey when I heard his version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps. It's remarkable. Such a loss.

[@kevinnesbitt6485]

He was in my home town months before he passed I'm really happy I went to see him He couldn't see us but he knew we loved him

[@Jasonvoorheesplace]

Love Jeff R.I.P. thxx for the music ❤️

[@garylee3229]

I saw him at Ontario Place’s Forum. It’s was crazy because he got up from his chair and knocked over a glass of water and shorted out the stage. Everyone laughed and 25 minutes later he knocked our socks off for 3 hours.

[@jamiethompson1008]

I'll never forget the summer of 89 when angel eyes came out. That summer I was 15 years old almost 16 and it was the first time I ever fell in love. It was real love and I couldn't get enough of it. This song reminds me of her and that time. She died in 2015 and we were still friends. She was irreplaceable

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

So sorry for your loss Jamie

[@victoria859]

My All Time Favorite !! Angel Eyes xo

[@kristirollins983]

Scott on tape love Jeff Healey saw him in road House great Patrick swayze was great also

[@MayfieldCreekObservatory]

So sorry for the loss of your first love.

[@willfade7994]

I’m so sorry for your loss. That’s so hard… It’s astonishing how a song can transport us back to places and people, specific times in our lives. I’ve been listening to the ‘See The Light’ album today and just heard ‘Angel Eyes’ right before seeing your comment! At least we will always have the music. Be blessed. 🌹

[@flashy5150]

I remember when he was on several news shows on CBC and Much music. He released “See The Light” before Roadhouse because I bought the album/tape before the movie was out, I was hooked. Here was a a guy that was blind, played the guitar like a piano and hit notes that a regular guitar player can’t hit. Jeff made “Roadhouse Blues” by the Doors popular in the Roadhouse movie. That guy could really play something special. I call him “ the blind Hendrix”.

[@kyledore1534]

How about the Canadian Hendrix? He’s not less of a person because he’s blind, but received less exposure because he is Canadian.

[@andreadeamon6419]

A friend of mine i went to school with was his cousin. Family is still missing him dearly.

[@Veronica-bc6pp]

😭

[@jessegarcia2458]

Patrick Swayze an Jeffy Healy both died of cancer..Two of a kind that were very loving an humble.

[@ariellehart9312]

Thank you for this; I have loved Jeff Healy for decades. His music was amazing!

[@peacefrog64]

What type of cancer did Jeff die of?

[@lmn1966]

@@peacefrog64 he was blind at 1 from cancer in the eye's. He underwent lung cancer surgery just a couple of months before he passed. He also had tumors removed in his legs prior. A lifelong struggle with cancers. I've seen him and his family many times at his bar in Toronto and concerts. One of a kind, humble gentleman. RIP Buddy. ✝️❤️ He's buried at ParkLawn Cemetery Section Y, Plot 555

[@peacefrog64]

@@lmn1966 Thank you very much for posting this.

[@marizalou453]

They were both in Roadhouse! ❤

[@jeffdoty5755]

Good man I love road House I know the feeling I lost my left eye of cancer in 2018 Scott cancer sucks I go back next month to see my cancer doctor he die to young thanks Scott I really love y work

[@TheDonnellymarie]

Love Jeff Healey. I had 3 or 4 blues vinyls that I found in charity shops. No blues collection is complete without this gent. It was a sad day when he passed for the music fans. I was too young and in the wrong country to have ever seen or met him or his band. Thank you for showing us his resting place. May his spirit live on.

[@esthergoulart3571]

RIP Jeff!! Gone too soon!! Thanks for the great video my friend!! He seemed like a very sweet man!! I love you and your channel!! You are great!! Thank you for taking us around and to his final resting place!! Love you my friend!! Peace!! 😢😢😢😢😢😢💖💖❤️❤️💙💙💜💜🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

[@reneepowers3019]

Ive loved Jeff Healey sense i was so young. I hate hes not with us today..i love his music..RIP JEFF....

[@janadeubner9883]

Love Jeff Healey's music! Cool story about him meeting BB King. The instruments in his park what a great idea, love it!

[@Veronica-bc6pp]

I love how it says a man of faith in god speaks volumes

[@Falling1100]

I don’t know how I missed it. But it was a great video. Just look at who played on his second album as guest. Even George Harrison showed up and played on “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”!

[@mlbolts72]

Thanks for showing his grave Such great music and incredible guitarist . Rip 🎸

[@sophiasmythe6221]

Hey, side note to you. Thanks for sharing with everyone how much talent in the world comes from Canada, talented musicians, singers, phenomenal actors/actresses and comedians. Much respect to our northern neighbors!

[@willfade7994]

Hi. I’m new to your channel. Jeff Healey brought me here. I’m in love with his music, especially his ‘See The Light’ album. Thank you so much for going out to the grave and the park I never knew about. Jeff was truly one of a kind and it breaks my heart to know that I’ll never get to meet him. Sadly, he passed away the same year my father passed away, both from cancer… My father died just 3 months after Jeff. I’ll forever be grateful to the movie ‘Roadhouse’ because that’s how I discovered Jeff. It’s still such a great film all these years later, so is the soundtrack, but Jeff Healey and the music really made that movie great, aside from the great cast, the mood of the film and all the great martial arts performances of course. I never knew that Jeff played with B.B. King! I had the privilege of seeing B.B. King perform at the Doheny Jazz & Blues Festival at Doheny Beach here in California and he was brilliant! I’ll never forget him coming to the stage in an all-leather American flag jacket. I’d pay good money to go back in time and see Jeff Healey and B.B. King perform together. How magnificent that would be. Thanks again for this! I liked and subscribed. 🌹

[@williammitchell1864]

Jeff Healey song: When Then Night Comes Fallin'. Great song for the movie Roadhouse!

[@caperboy1169]

I’ve been waiting a long time for this one,thank you

[@p.s8950]

Jeff is, without a drought, my Favourite Musician. Really regret never getting to his bar in T.O. considering I was from that area. But saw him life and up close enough to briefly talk, at the Back Alley Bar in Calgary years ago. Ironically a large fight/brawl broke out there that night, not as notable as Roadhouse but... Too cool.

[@odalisgonzalez6875]

The park for the kids is adorable. He was so young. Time goes by so quickly since his passing in 2008.

[@kaymad143]

I loved Jeff Healy and was so sad when he passed away. He was an incredible musician! I loved that song, "Angel Eyes", I heard it the other day and it made me smile. I love the chimes...

[@jolionalriddle9142]

Love his music, he was awesome Roadhouse is one of my favorite movies. RIP Jeff Thanks Scott

[@aliagnes6166]

Wow beautiful.. Gosh, I remember seeing Jeff Healey at impromptu concert he put on at a bar in Ottawa called Barrymores. Not there any more but to this day, it was the best concert I have ever seen.. You got lost in his music and he played for hours, he loved the music. At the end of the concert he mingled with the audience and he gave me a guitar pick, which I still have:) HE was so underrated.

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

That’s so awesome you have that pick!

[@Veronica-bc6pp]

Looks like someone who loved him put those flowers there… especially!

[@traceyhellsten649]

Oh man, I loved Jeff Healey 😢, and Patrick Swayze 😢. Thanks Scott, God bless 🙏

[@bertiewooster305]

I saw them twice in Glasgow in the early 1990's and met them after the gig. He was a very nice guy. Rest in peace old chap. You did great.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

Hi Scott, how cool that you got to hear him live! I saw Roadhouse when it came out, but didn't know who he was. Really enjoyed getting to know him through your video.

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Thanks Steve! Good to hear from you. I just re-watched Roadhouse last week, it’s surprising how well it holds up. A really fun, cool action movie. And Jeff is phenomenal in it. Hope you are well! See you soon.

[@MayfieldCreekObservatory]

Love this video. Love Jeff Healey. Thanks for making this. Toronto is such a beautiful city.

[@chuckwagon5518]

I really felt bad when Jeff Healey passed. The guy was blind most of his life and didn't even get to live a full life in lieu of. But he left us some great rock n' roll! RIP Jeff.

[@robotgoose225]

Regardless of any struggles or disadvantages Jeff may have had, he selflessly gave his gift of music to the world. Not to say that he saw them as 'struggles'... he seemed to effortlessly wade through life, always with laughter and a smile. Guy's a legend of Blues guitar. Maybe you have to be blind, to get guitar tone, like that... that extremely 'fine tuned' ear was a gift, to us! Thanks for the vid. I imagined hearing a teenage Jeff Healey playing guitar, as you walked in his neighbourhood. ❤

[@wallyb7207]

Went to high school with Jeff Healey at Etobicoke Collegiate institute in the 80s. He had a huge bunch of students around him all the time. Nice kid. I used to play ball hockey when I was a kid in that park inside the tennis court located off Park Lawn. Of course back then it wasn't called Jeff Healey park. I used to like it because it was secluded on a dead end.

[@bogrot69]

I was so fortunate to catch many of his early club shows in Vancouver and meet him and his band several times. He was selling his See The Light singles at the first show I went to. I remember him telling me about the Roadhouse part and he was so excited about it. Very nice, very humble guy. Only to years younger than myself Still very sad that we lost him. I have never seen his grave. This video really stirred a lot of emotions in me.

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

And thank you so much for watching

[@george6036]

I have been an extremely big fan of Jeff Healey through the years. Rest in peace brother! Oh and great video thanks for sharing! Enjoyed it a lot

[@bobsteel6916]

I found this 2 year old video and it made my day. I have a Fender Stratocaster Deluxe 70's headstock very much like Jeff. My then G.F. insisted I learn how to play Angel Eyes and that's how I was introduced to Jeff. I then saw him on Road House and on David Letterman where he played Confident Man and stood next to a chair wailing on a guitar solo then sitting back down and finishing the song. It was and still is awesome. I was deeply saddened to hear of his death years ago, thanks for remembering him.☮☮☮

[@MavAuto-Pete]

I remember seeing Jeff Healey for the 1st time in roadhouse, I've never seen anything like it for a blind person to play a guitar the unique way he did. Absolutely fantastic loving guy, I miss him lots.

[@debbiechrispen9033]

I loved him ever since I heard angel eyes and seen him in roadhouse.... RIP Jeff Healey...

[@arturodelfabbro2634]

Beautiful song, beautiful story . Thank you for sharing ✌🏽✌🏽

[@sophiasmythe6221]

I think he played like he absolutely HAD to, from his soul as most blues artists do. It's what makes the music so very good. You just want to tilt your head back and close your eyes and let it soak in. Yes, Roadhouse was and still is a guilty pkeasure, who wouldn't love Swayze and Elliot accompanied by the blues? It never pretended to be an Oscar contender but it was a simple movie with good guy winning against bad guy. Hope Jeff is resting in peace picturing joining in with the greats that went before him.
