Healey should be in the discussion of the greatest rock/blues guitarists of all time. Dude was an absolute MONSTER on musicality. who else hit notes like he did?
As a guitarist myself, we typically mainly use four fingers on the fret board with the occasional thumb over the top on the low E (the fat string at the top) for certain chords. This dudes thumb game is ridiculous. How jealous do you think a piano player would be watching a six fingered man play piano in front of him. That’s how I feel watching this guy, it’s almost unfair. Legend.
Yes, he is self taught. His parents bought him a guitar when he was a kid. Being blind, he just put it on his lap and started teaching himself. Crazy talent.
I can tell you this. When he was elementary school my step father was teaching Jeff to read brail, my step father brought his guitar in to sing for the kids and Jeff fell in love with the guitar, my step father also showed him basic chords and Jeff went onto more.
I am totally blind, and teach guitar lessons, and I have to say, he is one of my inspiration. Y’all should have definitely heard angel eyes first, but anyway. I wasn’t born blind, I was shot in a drive-by when I was 19, but I’m still blind, and play guitar like this dude. He is a bad ass
@Bilbo Bass i mean during the song u dont really hear them and afterwards, well its not like these 2 have anything interesting to say about it tbh. But it was just a joke haha, think he would rather want me to treat him as an equal instead of showing pitty. Nonetheless great that he can play guitar as a blind man sir. My favorite blind guitarist: Doc Watson. LEGEND
Dude was playing ON FIRE! There’s a song where Stevie Ray Vaughan was playing alongside Jeff Healey, and even SRV had to step back in amazement. That’s quite an accomplishment. (edited for spelling)
So sad he is gone now. R I P Jeff. He was a totally higher level...As a fellow Canadian I am so sad he is gone...He was extremely popoular here in Canada. Thanx for this guys. Love yous
Brad's face at the end is epic!!! He's contemplating every decision he's ever made after watching someone blind completely own the guitar. He's got that I've done nothing with my life look on his face😂. It's ok Brad we all feel that way after watching Jeff play lol
Totally agree, at one point while Jeff Healey is soloing, Stevie has this "holy shit" look on his face, a reaction I don't think anyone else ever gave him.
@@Burned_Man When Stevie "discovered" Jeff in Toronto I was supposed to see both of them. Stevie at the El Mocambo and Jeff at the Brunswick House. I got stupid ill and couldn't attend either show. I saw Jeff play half a dozen times though. Most at tiny bars like The Upper Lip back in the mid 80s.
I haven't seen this video in a couple years and I forgot how absolutely phenomenal his performance was! It really is one of the best blues-rock guitar solos I've ever seen.
@@derekgiesbrecht1554 He just played a number of songs with Dave Grohl as part of the Taylor Hawkins tribute concert over the weekend. He has played with a wide range of acts over the years.
@@derekgiesbrecht1554 I know your post is old , but Omar was the drummer for the Sting Concert Film / Rockumentary "Bring on the Night" . The band Sting put together for that project are all insanely talented .
That band behind him were/are legends in their own right and were regulars on that show. Dr. John on piano, Marcus Miller on bass and Omar Hakim on drums. Going from memory Jeff started playing when he was 3 and was self-taught. When he went to a boarding school for the blind they tried to get him to play the guitar "normally" but he was uncomfortable doing so and stuck with the method of playing it on his lap.
It's nice to see you don't have Lex beside you just for her beauty but her intelligence, knowing Jeff was blind and recognizing another music legend Dr. John.
That shit was out of this world,period.Even Jimi Hendrix would have been wildy impressed w that performance,and Mr Healey as well.Bet they are jamming every night in the Light together now.
You guys are the two most analytical people I have ever had the pleasure of being introduced to, analytical in your own unique ways, You guys are so right for each other, I love it 😎✌️
A Canadian treasure.😎 My favorite is still "As the Years go Passing by" live at the Stuttgart Jazz Festival, but he also kicks it with SRV - Look at Little Sister
Yeah, he learned basic things and was told to hold guitar conventional fashion He preferred his method and soon explained the class was progressing too slowly. He played his own way after. Crazy talent
Dr John,a na basie Marcus Miller! Jeden z najlepszych basistow na swiecie! Co on tam robi z tym basem! Szok! Nie mowie o Jeffie bo byl jednym z niewielu gitarzystow na swiecie co gral technika fortepianowa! A na perkusji mistrz Omar Hakir! Taki sklad to marzenie! Mozna podbic swiat! On gral w filmie z Patrickiem Swayze! W Wykidajlo,, Taki tytul mial w moim kraju jestem z Polski! Patrick mowi do. Jeffa niezle wymiatasz! A Jeff do Patricka myslalem ze jestes wyzszy! 😂 I to pokazuje jakim byl czlowiekiem! Czesc jego pamieci! R,I,P! Szkoda! Jeszcze mogl tyle dokonac! Tez gram bluesa! I w moim srodowisku sie mowi! Z bluesa powstales i w blues sie obrocisz! Pozdrawiam wszystkich bluesmanow i nie tylko!❤👍🏻🤟👌✌️✊️🙏🙏🙏
Jeff lost his eyesight in infancy due to a rare form of cancer. At the age of three, he received his first guitar and starting teaching himself how to play. He developed his own style that would never be duplicated. An amazing person and an amazing inspiration to us all. And, yes, he died too young at the age of 41 in his home town of Toronto Canada.
A powerhouse band with Jeff, Marcus Miller on bass, Omar Hakim on drums and Dr. John on keys...and Jeff transcends!! One of Canada's greatest treasures, tragically cut short 🤩
I had the privilege of seeing Jeff Healey in concert. THE most incredible concert I have seen in my life! I looked around during the first numer, and everyone in the audience had that look of 'I don't believe what I am seeing and hearing here!' Absolutely phenomenal! Tragic that he died at such an early age...
This guy is in the movie Roadhouse. Jeff Healey is in the band that plays at the bar. And Patrick Swayze is the bouncer. And they are long time friends in the movie. Ifs not a bad movie. Its worth watching at least once.
He was an amazing jazz guy also. Played a mean horn. He had a great radio show on Jazzfm Toronto. They play reruns of it now and again. Seen him so many times before he got big. He was as humble and wholesome as he looks. Gave so much to the music community and and more.
I am sure that by now you know the story about Jeff healey. I feel such a loss that I can't help but cry when I hear his music. He is the proof that God exists. Because I would have never thought it possible yet it is. He was a beautiful man and he made beautiful music.❤ Love y'all's show❤
jeff, a canadian, was also a top class trumpet player who hosted a weekly jazz radio show, he played jazz trumpet and released albums of his jazz playing as well. i had the honor of driving him mhome from a blues guitar set in toronto in 1984.
I can still remember seeing this the first time it was played on MTV. I was mesmerized and blown away by what I saw. Never heard of him till that moment. Never forgot him after that. Still have the cassette I bought immediately after seeing this. Rest In Peace Jeff! March 25, 1966 - March 2, 2008 (age-41)
that most certainly was the good Dr. on the piano both he and Jeff were musical treasures i've had the pleasure of their grooves tinkling in my ears for sooooooo many yrs. RIP Brothers
A true Canadian legend. I remember seeing him for the first time in my early teens on T.V. and hearing the song "Angel Eyes" on the radio. Sometimes I think he doesn't get the recognition that he deserves.
Jeff Healy started learning the guitar when he was 3yrs old after having lost his sight as an infant. He was too small to hold a guitar proper so he learned playing it on his lap.
Lex, you nailed it! When I saw Jeff live (twice) I felt he was channeling the music from beyond. Most spiritual thing I've ever seen. Loved you reaction. RIP Jeff Healy.
Great reaction !!! I had the honor of seeing Jeff play live a few times at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto in the mid eighties. Unreal, down to earth person. So many great songs but "As the Years go Passing By" is one of my favorites ❤
I remember seeing Jeff many times when he was playing the bar scene in Toronto. It was mesmerizing sitting only a short distance away from the stage. Having a few wobbly pops and watching the rise of pure genius was an incredible night out.
Jeff and SRV were friends. They Play "Look at little sister" together. What an amazing video. Two of the greatest together. It speaks to the soul. Well worth a watch. Love your reactions. Rock on!
Was lucky enough to see him back in the day. He was an astonishing guitarist, and had a wonderful, positive energy. The gig was very upbeat, and he had a great connection with the crowd. He was also really funny, with his song introductions and stories in between songs
This performance by Jeff & the band is as great and passionate that I've seen on You Tube. One of my other favorites is Grand Funk Railroad's "Inside Looking Out" Live 1969. Music coming from the soul played with true passion.
One of the best ever!! Jeff Healey was a phenomenal guitar player. He played upside, on his lap and was unable to see!! Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff Healey have a clip together and even SRV couldn’t believe this guy’s playing. Two of the best ever!! RIP SRV and Jeff Healey...
He was hugely talented. What spirit. A master musician. Try playing his stuff as a sighted player, extremely tough to even get near what he could do. Wow.
he was one of the best guitar players EVER, with a complete new style of playing! I was so lucky to see him live in Belgium, in a small venue (only 1000 people), and that was pure magic! And he was so funy in his interactions with the public! Half way the concert somebody in de crowd shouted: Ritchie Blackmore! And he said: Ritchie Blackmore??? I'm not Ritchie Blackmore, are you BLIND??? lol, that was soooooo funy, great guy, RIP Jeff Healey!
Met Jeff and his band in the late 90's in Sarasota at a blues bar, He picked up the house guitar, sat down, and rocked... He was an amazing guitarist.... Still have the bar napkin with all of their autographs....
I echo everyone else's admiration for Jeff Healy's guitar mastery but I would like to point out that incredible rhythm section!!! That bassist and the drummer were AMAZING!!!
Lex's reaction to these wonderful guitar artists. Her genuine reaction and the joy she receives and shares with us. It is an absolute joy for us to watch. Keep it up Y'all.
Jeff Healey’s a legend here in Toronto! I went to see him play at the, then, Skydome, in Toronto in 89’ when I was about 20! It was actually a Stevie Ray Vaughan & Jeff Beck concert but they invited Jeff Healey to join them to do a set! After they finished their individual sets, the 3 of them jammed it out together! Was the most epic guitar legend show!! 🔥I still have my ticket stub. Was truly devastating when only 5 or 6 months after that show when Stevie Ray Vaughan died tragically in a helicopter crash. RIP to both of them. Even the person I went to that concert with lost his young life a couple years later. Needless to say, that show still burns brightly in my memory 34 years later. RIP Stevie. RIP Jeff. ✌🏼 RIP Tommy.
Jeff Healey didn't have a gazillion hits, but what he gave to das evolution of Rock music can't be defined. He was certainly a passionate guitarist who could sing most anyone's tunes,..but das inspiration he exhibited to so many he affected can not be measured. Legendary und prodigy simply can't define him. We miss you Jeff. Lex??? I'm quite impressed about you taking time to check out Jeff Healey's history. 🙂 I think both of you are very much intelligent und "good people"...That ist important to me. I wish you das best in your UA-cam quest. :-) Auf Wiedersehen aus Wiesbaden
I’ve never seen this!! Wowza!! I’ve seen JH perform before but not this official performance. That was fantastic, and I agree with everything you both said! And yes, Lex, that was Dr. John!!
A Canadian treasure! This guy was iconic, and lost far too soon.
Check out some of his duos with STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN. Amazing stuff!
Healey should be in the discussion of the greatest rock/blues guitarists of all time. Dude was an absolute MONSTER on musicality. who else hit notes like he did?
Amen Jeff Healy God Rest his Soul.. he is now Seeing the Light With God in the Universe and Jeff Healy is seeing the Light now and Forever More..❤
jeff is great, he even pops up in the Patrick Swayze movie Roadhouse. And yes that is Doctor John.
Honestly, the only interest I had in Road House was the fact that Jeff had a cameo. :)
Dr. John , he was the man!
I thought you'd be taller!
"Roadhouse!" 💪 If you imagine that in Peter Griffin's voice it will be funny 🤣
The Double Deuce…
As a guitarist myself, we typically mainly use four fingers on the fret board with the occasional thumb over the top on the low E (the fat string at the top) for certain chords. This dudes thumb game is ridiculous. How jealous do you think a piano player would be watching a six fingered man play piano in front of him. That’s how I feel watching this guy, it’s almost unfair. Legend.
Yes, he is self taught. His parents bought him a guitar when he was a kid. Being blind, he just put it on his lap and started teaching himself. Crazy talent.
@@Burned_Man No worries bro. Thanks for the input.
Well, he actually started playing on his lap because his guitar was too big to hold normally
I can tell you this. When he was elementary school my step father was teaching Jeff to read brail, my step father brought his guitar in to sing for the kids and Jeff fell in love with the guitar, my step father also showed him basic chords and Jeff went onto more.
There is a jam sessiion between Healy and SRV. Its awesome.
Its to painful for him to play guitar normally, thats why he plays it on lap.
You Need to see Jeff and Stevie Ray Vaughn together performing Look at Little Sister!!!
I am totally blind, and teach guitar lessons, and I have to say, he is one of my inspiration. Y’all should have definitely heard angel eyes first, but anyway. I wasn’t born blind, I was shot in a drive-by when I was 19, but I’m still blind, and play guitar like this dude. He is a bad ass
Why is a blind man watching reaction videos haha

Sadly, Jeff passed away in 2008. He was a music legend.
Ya it’s really sad he had to go so young! 😔
Dude was playing ON FIRE! There’s a song where Stevie Ray Vaughan was playing alongside Jeff Healey, and even SRV had to step back in amazement. That’s quite an accomplishment. (edited for spelling)
Look At Little Sister was the song...
RIP Jeff Healey. He's from Canada and he is missed. Jeff has plenty of great songs.
So sad he is gone now. R I P Jeff. He was a totally higher level...As a fellow Canadian I am so sad he is gone...He was extremely popoular here in Canada. Thanx for this guys. Love yous

Y’all should check out Jeff Healey and Stevie Ray Vaughan’s performance together. They performed Look At Little Sister, they absolutely killed it.
For sure- Two of the greatest at their craft together.
Totally agree, at one point while Jeff Healey is soloing, Stevie has this "holy shit" look on his face, a reaction I don't think anyone else ever gave him.
@@steverichard1740 SRV has said he was lucky to have Jeff as a friend and he loved playing with him. Jeff had basically said the same about SRV

Nobody should ever say " I Cant " - What an inspiration ❤🎶🎤 R.I.P. Jeff
Jeff Healey "As The Years Go Passing By" live is amazing
Jeff does a great cover of While My Guitar Gently Weeps, haven't seen it mentioned yet but it's more FIRE🔥
It is the best version of that song by anyone IMHO!
Dr. John on piano, Marcus Miller on bass, Omar Hakim on drums. All three brilliant musicians to add to Jeff Healey's fire.
I guess Dr. John was in the right place at the right time, hey? 😝😂
I was thinking the same thing while watching it. Perfect fit for him on this song
Omar Hakim, i've heard that name, he must be a most requested drummer, i've seen it somewhere, but where?
@@derekgiesbrecht1554 He just played a number of songs with Dave Grohl as part of the Taylor Hawkins tribute concert over the weekend. He has played with a wide range of acts over the years.

I’m so glad you watched Jeff Healey because this man was phenomenal! You will cry if you listen to his song ‘Angel Eyes’.
There are no words for this talent except unequaled
Glad you two checked out a live performance.
That band behind him were/are legends in their own right and were regulars on that show. Dr. John on piano, Marcus Miller on bass and Omar Hakim on drums.

Jeff Healey "As The Years Go Passing By" is another amazing preformance. I love y'all's reactions!
Words really can't describe this guy...
🤔……😳…..what did we just see?!
Total awesomeness ❤
It's nice to see you don't have Lex beside you just for her beauty but her intelligence, knowing Jeff was blind and recognizing another music legend Dr. John.
Such a wonderful moment in music history... Thank you both for giving Jeff his due..
Jeff Healey’s song “Angel Eyes” is his absolute best song. Hands down… It’s a long forgotten treasure of a song.
Definitely in the discussion as one of the best guitarists, if not in fact the GOAT. Blind at the age of one, but his disability was not a deterrence.
That shit was out of this world,period.Even Jimi Hendrix would have been wildy impressed w that performance,and Mr Healey as well.Bet they are jamming every night in the Light together now.
He brings tears to my eyes watching him play. Soo much soul.
You guys are the two most analytical people I have ever had the pleasure of being introduced to, analytical in your own unique ways, You guys are so right for each other, I love it 😎✌️
He was an amazing talent.
He was an amazing talent. He also appeared in the movie "Road House."
The lady is right on with 'seeing a Spirit perform a piece of music ". Unworldly. "The wall of self criticism wasn't there!" Spot on!
He's in a purest of form, he's never seen anybody perform with his eyes. His joy is from his heart and soul.
A Canadian treasure.😎 My favorite is still "As the Years go Passing by" live at the Stuttgart Jazz Festival, but he also kicks it with SRV - Look at Little Sister
Yes some people can learn play by just hearing the notes 👌 this performances are so inspiring and make you never give up 🔥🤘🔥
How I learn
Yeah, he learned basic things and was told to hold guitar conventional fashion
He preferred his method and soon explained the class was progressing too slowly. He played his own way after. Crazy talent
That is one of the greatest performances I've ever witnessed. "The name's Dalton" Rip Jeff, Patrick, Ben, and Red from Roadhouse.
What a treasure he was. RIP Jeff Healey. RIP Dr John as well. Lex he was one with his guitar.

My mind is freaking blown. This performance is in my top 3 ever. Healey is right up there with the goats of All TIME.
He was in Road House with Patrick Swayze. He played the "House guitarist" at the bar.
Jeff lost his eyesight in infancy due to a rare form of cancer. At the age of three, he received his first guitar and starting teaching himself how to play. He developed his own style that would never be duplicated. An amazing person and an amazing inspiration to us all. And, yes, he died too young at the age of 41 in his home town of Toronto Canada.
RIP Jeff. Another awesome 🇨🇦 talent
I'm glad you finally got to Jeff Healey. He was a real talent and you can't go wrong with anything he's done.
one of the best

Omg,I think a lot of channel's need to do this,I was watching the night that this was broadcast, and taped it on VHS,this was in 88.
I can still remember seeing this the first time it was played on MTV. I was mesmerized and blown away by what I saw. Never heard of him till that moment. Never forgot him after that. Still have the cassette I bought immediately after seeing this.
Rest In Peace Jeff!
March 25, 1966 - March 2, 2008 (age-41)
Saw Jeff in a beer tent in 85 in Toronto his hometown,killer gig.
that most certainly was the good Dr. on the piano both he and Jeff were musical treasures i've had the pleasure
of their grooves tinkling in my ears for sooooooo many yrs. RIP Brothers
Spent a night with Jeff. Playing Jazz at Cameron House in Toronto.
He was on trumpet.
A true Canadian legend. I remember seeing him for the first time in my early teens on T.V. and hearing the song "Angel Eyes" on the radio. Sometimes I think he doesn't get the recognition that he deserves.
Jeff Healy started learning the guitar when he was 3yrs old after having lost his sight as an infant. He was too small to hold a guitar proper so he learned playing it on his lap.
Dr John, Marcus Miller , Hakim, Jeff Healey
you just appreciated true greatness
RIP Jeff
Not a bad little pickup band there.

Great reaction !!! I had the honor of seeing Jeff play live a few times at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto in the mid eighties. Unreal, down to earth person.
So many great songs but "As the Years go Passing By" is one of my favorites ❤
I remember seeing Jeff many times when he was playing the bar scene in Toronto. It was mesmerizing sitting only a short distance away from the stage. Having a few wobbly pops and watching the rise of pure genius was an incredible night out.

Jeff Healey is a treasure. Under appreciated.
Good call for a young person on recognizing Dr John. Jeff Healey was definitely unique. I'm happy I got to see him live many years ago.
The look of stunned disbelief that we all shared when we first experienced Jeff, and every time after 😎
Was lucky enough to see him back in the day. He was an astonishing guitarist, and had a wonderful, positive energy. The gig was very upbeat, and he had a great connection with the crowd. He was also really funny, with his song introductions and stories in between songs
That is so cool that you knew who Dr. John was Lex ! Brad, welcome the the world of Jeff Healey !! RIP Brother, Peace.
Yes Jeff Healey was one of a kind... among blues and jazz circles among the best. rip.
Thanks for sharing your reactions! Love this performance. Absolute pure inspiration.
Jeff Healey freakin kills it!
Had the great good fortune to see him several times at his club in Toronto. Gone way too soon!
This performance by Jeff & the band is as great and passionate that I've seen on You Tube. One of my other favorites is Grand Funk Railroad's "Inside Looking Out" Live 1969. Music coming from the soul played with true passion.
One of my favorites. And being blind makes Jeff even more Amazing!
Always amazing watching this man he shows you blind Is not a disability !
One of the best ever!! Jeff Healey was a phenomenal guitar player. He played upside, on his lap and was unable to see!! Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff Healey have a clip together and even SRV couldn’t believe this guy’s playing. Two of the best ever!! RIP SRV and Jeff Healey...
Jeff Healey is the 8th wonder of the world.. RIP Jeff, gone but never forgotten..
He was hugely talented. What spirit. A master musician. Try playing his stuff as a sighted player, extremely tough to even get near what he could do. Wow.
The way he's using his left hand is so strange but DAMN that guy could play!!
he was one of the best guitar players EVER, with a complete new style of playing! I was so lucky to see him live in Belgium, in a small venue (only 1000 people), and that was pure magic!

RIP Jeff Healey you're missed a lot....Killer guitar player!
He is one of my favorite guitar players...one of the best in the world IMO.
RIP Bluesman. Your incredible talent lives on. 👏
I echo everyone else's admiration for Jeff Healy's guitar mastery but I would like to point out that incredible rhythm section!!! That bassist and the drummer were AMAZING!!!
Agreed 💯! Those who truly master their craft fully embody the instrument and allow it to become a natural extension of their physical self.
OMG just realized you guys are over 150k subs!! GRATS!! Very Well Deserved!! ❤️ Keep up the Great Reactions!! 😁👍❤️💯
Saw him live in the early 90s and he was amazing. Totally mesmerising.
Lex's reaction to these wonderful guitar artists. Her genuine reaction and the joy she receives and shares with us. It is an absolute joy for us to watch. Keep it up Y'all.
Jeff Healey's cover of "While my guitar gently weeps" is Beautiful
Angel Eyes is a must watch
What a treasure Jeff was , R.I.P. , and , Yes Lex , ha Dr. John ,, and I knew You were gonna love Jeff's leads , almost got that vibe , ha
