Saw Jeff in Glasgow many years ago, he was just a kid but played like an old master. Legends never die... they just keep on rocking

Woulda been sweet to party with him.

Jeff was one of the finest guitarists ever. I was looking forward to seeing him in Manchester during his UK tour; I still can't believe he's gone. Mike Rigby

You did it better than anyone else - even the originals...God speed

first heard of jeff when i saw him in the film roadhouse, then bought see the light, hard to believe he's dead, he was only 10 years older than me, he'll be sorely missed rip

"while my guitar gently weeps" well that is us now Jeff, rock it to them angels!

I feel privelaged that I saw Jeff last year in London, he was truly amazing. His music will live on...

Many try all there lives to master the guitar but fail,you did it in just 41 year with no eye sight. You are and will always be an inspiration to many,thank for all the great music. P.S. Those really were ANGEL EYES.

Had the privelege of seeing Jeff at the Carling Academy last year.An amazing concert by an amazing man. Truely sorry to hear the sad news.

i will always share you JOY and PAIN.

We have lost a beutiful person. And, we have inherited a wonderful gift. Thank you.

The first time I saw Jeff and the boys was on the Tonight Show back in 87. When Johnny was introducing him as a blind guitarist, I was expecting somebody like Jose Felliciano. He ripped into "See the Light" and I was sooo blown away. I just fell in love with him, his style, his passion, and his sound. He was truley amazing and inspired me to keep on playing when I was about to give up. Jeff Healy will allways be the greatest in my heart.

angel eyes will aways shineJeff Healey tell the end of time !

Your Music Was ONE OF A KIND Never can Anyone ever duplicate what YOU created, GOD REST YOUR SOUL, YOU WILL ALWAYS "LIVE ON".

He's now playing blues music in heaven for God

You have touched so many lives and have been such an inspiration to many. We will miss you, Jeff.

Thanks Jeff for the music you gave us. You will be missed.

Yeah, Mr. Healey was a great bluesman - his chops were KICKIN'! When I first saw him play I was astonished at his flamboyant ability and his showmanship just inspired us all. This is sad news... rest in peace sir.

I have always enjoyed the music of Jeff Healey from the first time I heard it. I was amazed at how the music seemed to come from his soul. You were so into his music that you never noticed that he was blind. He will be greatly missed and impossible to replace.

After seeing him in "Roadhouse", I was mesmerized by his talent. Not as a blind performer, but as a true artist. Started collecting his CDs and enjoying him more and more. I feel for those who did not know him and his talents. Forever in our hearts and spirit.

jimmy trapp, now jeff healey theres gunna be some rocking in heaven along with all the other greats, sadly missed

a truly great great player.you will be sadly missed jeff.

I saw Jeff With JHB 4 times during his tours of England. Once accompanied by Phil Sayce on guitar, that show rocked! I was so hoping Jeff would come to England again with his own Blues Band after the fall out with Rockman & Stevens. I would love to have watched him one more time. But I'm just glad I got to see him at all! A great man. R.I.P Jeff, Thank you.

I had the opportunity to see Jeff perform in a small club in Pittsburgh, PA on the See The Light Tour and was blown away. Many years later I was in Toronto and went to see Jeff and the Jazz Wizzards at an HMV store. I mentioned to the drummer that I was a musician from the states and a huge fan. I then asked if it would possible to meet Jeff. Jef was gracious enough to meet with me one on one upstairs in the store and to autograph the CD that I purchased that day. The world has lost an incredible talent and most importantly a very humble, and nice person.

HEARING HIM THE FIRST TIME ON THE RADIO AND RUNNING OUT AND BUYING HIS MUSIC. THE WAY HE PLAYED WITH THE TONE AND HIS, EXCLLENT VOCALS> I LOVED THE MOVIE ROADHOUSE, AND ALWAYS, LISTENED TO JEFF, EVERY WEEK OR SO! HIS MUSIC SHOULD LIVE ON AND ILL MISS KNOWING HE HAS LEFT THIS WORLD, BUT I WILL ALWAYS,BE LISTENIGN TO HIS LEGACY HIS MUSIC: LIVE ON JEFF, R.I.P.

I met Jeff at a backstage meet and greet many years ago, and he was as sweet to talk to as he was to listen to. It is a loss to music and the world that is immeasurable. Jeff was a record collector, like me, and his love for his "hobby" (as people often call it) made his love for his craft even more genuine. A lovely guy, and a sincere and gifted player. The world is less colorful without him, but I am grateful he was here. Rest in peace, Jeff. You're free.

i'll miss you. i saw jeff at the casino in hampton beach,nh. he was wonderful and amazing .love the bluesmama

The first time I ever saw Jeff play was at a small basement club (The Boderline) in Charing Cross road, London. He was sat on an old chair at one side of the very low stage, I was no more than 6-8ft away from him, and was completely and utterly blown away by the genius sat before me.There were some very famous guitarists also in attendance, who just stood back in amazement, I heard one very famous international star say he may as well just give up. That is the effect Jeff had on people, that's my memory, which has so much feeling attached to it I will never forget him. Rest in Peace mate, you're one of the few who we measure by what you achieved not by how long you've been on this earth.

Rest In Peace Jeff. you will be missed.

A friend pulled up in his car awhile ago and said you gotta listen to this,it was Jeffs version of Hideaway blasting out of his car cd player,we got tickets to his See the Light show and we were totally blown away.Why is it that all the great talents are taken away so early?.My thoughts and prayers are with his family at this sad time.R.I.P. great man.

First time I ever heard Jeff play it was on a BBC lunchtime show called Pebble Mill at One; he'd just appeared in the Roadhouse movie and he played two songs with that distinctive overhand style; one was Roadhouse Blues and Stuck In the Middle With You. A great, great talent that will be sorely missed

Since first hearing Jeff play See The Light, I was taken by the dynamic playing & passionate singing. When I discovered he was blind along with his unique style of playing, it was amazing & inspiring. A real shame to lose such a talent so young as we have many before him. I was saddened to hear of his passing as we've lost another great one. My thoughts & prayers go out to the family, friends & associates of this unique talent.

Truly one of the most influential blues guitarist of recent day. Thoughts and prayers go out to family and close friends.

he was a great man 'singer and a great actor he had a voice that could touch any body heart i no this because he touched mine he will be greatly missed and jeff i know you are up in heaven and looking at GOD right now miss you always

Found out just today about Jeffs passing on a piece on NPR. It hit me right in the heart in an unexpected way. Jeff could "see" life more clearly than most people I've ever met.

Pure beautiful music - eyes to the soul. I think i fell in love with him listening to his voice. Played and remembered often. Rest peacefully xx

I WAS A FAN AND I LOVED HIS SONGS AND LOVED IT WHEN HE PLAYED IN ROADHOUSE WITH PATRICK SWAYZE AND I NO HE IS UP THE THE SKY WITH OUR MAKER AND WILL BE THERE WHEN WE ALL GET THEREHE HAS MADE A BIG RULE IN MY LIFE AND I WILL LET MY 8 YEAROLD NO ABOUT HIM AND I NO I WILL MEET HIM UP THERE WHERE HE IS

i was a fan from years ago when he did road house and i loved his songs so much and will miss him alot

jeff your music will be definitely be missed your music relaxed us and we are grateful for the wonderful tunes you cranked out maybe now that you are in heaven you can see the great things that your fans say about you

I went to college in Upstate New York in the late 80's have been a big fan of Jeff Healey and his work over the years. I remeber buying his first record in Plattsburg. Live in Texas now and just moved back to Dallas from Austin...walking in the footsteps of Robert Johnson and Stevie Ray. Like Jeff, I am a big fan of old Jazz and have recently been discovering the New Orleans Blues and Jazz scene on many buisness trips. Next time I am down in the Big Easy we'll have to toast Jeff down in "The Quarter" and have a Jazz Funeral to celebrate his life and contribution to the world and music. Walk passed copy of Live At Montreaux DVD today and just had to get it. My thoughts and prayers go out to Jeff's wife and children for their loss.

just heard about his death big shock realy liked him and his music since i seen roadhouse loved his music he will be sadly missed

SAW JEFF LIVE IN BRIBANE AUSTRALIA AFTER SEE THE LIGHT, HELL TO PAY AND THE ROADHOUSE SOUNDTRACK HAD BEEN RELEASED I STILL REMEMBER SOMEONE IN THE AUDIENCE I LOVE YOU JEFF AND THE REPLY OF I LOVE YOU TOO BUT LUCKY I CAN'T SEE YOU. TO JEFF'S FAMILY MY CONDOLENCES TO MUSIC WORLD WE LOSE A GENIUS AND A WONDERFUL HUMAN BEING AND RECORD COLLECTOR

So sad, that I haven't had the chance to see him live. I wanted to see him in Bonn/Germany in March. But his music will be in me and with me and a lot of friends. I'm sure he will be with a lots of friends in heaven and there will be no pain anymore. Thank you Jeff for your music and the way you walked through your life.

SO SAD YOU WERE SUCH A SPECIAL PERSON AND WILL BE GREATLY MISSED AND NEVER FORGOTTEN

Collin, I need to speak with you. It will be worth your time. I've tried for days to find you. We can help each other through this. You are indeed a good friend. My respect to you. Please contact me. j_dotson@netzero.net

Jeff you was my hero. I was honared to have seen you several times. See you in heaven. Hope you are jamming with hendrix and co. RIP

Unbelievably, I just heard of Jeff's death on the Hall of Fame Induction special. I cannot believe it. His song 'Angel Eyes' is a masterpiece. So very sad...
