lawrocket 3 #2 March 3, 2008 Quote Jeff Healey has passed away. Music has lost another legend. HEALEY? HOW? That guy was freaking amazing. I saw him in Long Beach in 02 expecting to see a guy who was pretty good for being blind and I was blow away. Edited to add: from retino blastoma - the same cancer that took his sight.

kschilk 0 #3 March 3, 2008 I just saw it on CNN, this morning...it was some form of cancer, I didn't catch the specific type. Even discounting the blindness, he was flat-out amazing. His music will live on but it's a helluva loss...he was an inspiration for many."T'was ever thus." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
