Jeff Healey is Canadian and he is blind. He lost his eyesight to cancer when he was around a year old. His father gave him a guitar when he was three and because he was so little he couldn't reach the strings so he put it on his lap and he became comfortable playing it that way. He became friends with Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Unfortunately the cancer came back and he passed when he was in his forties.
Brilliant guitarist!
Sadly, we need to use the past tense, as Jeff Healey died from lung cancer at age 41 in 2008. Obviously cancer was a terrible scourge to his family. RIP
Jimi Hendrix played with his teeth as well
Didn't you know that he is blind? Makes it even more special.
Nope. Not until the premiere. I could tell something was different about him but I didn't want to say something wrong lol
Hey, that was Dr John on the keys.
I'm gonna have to check him out!
Malcolm john Rebennack aka Dr. John. Start with his biggest hit "Right place wrong time"
And Marcus Miller on bass.
@@diverdown631 "Gris Gris" is a legendary album, too.
Nice to see Jeff on here! As a Canadian, I'm very proud to have this unique talent getting some due recognition. Rock on Jeff RIP.
Terrific reaction to one of Canada's greatest for sure. This isn't the Jeff Healey Band though, this is Jeff with a bit of a star-studded lineup, with Marcus Miller on the bass, the legendary Dr. John on piano and Omar Hakim on drums. This was a one-off TV gig, but they all cook like hell here for sure. Great choice - peace and love from Canada ☮
His version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps is one of the best Beatles covers ever.
His 1990 appearance on Letterman is pretty decent.
Dr John is another rabbit whole, a true legend.
That’s the doctor, Dr.John on piano 🎹. Sadly both of these musicians have passed. Great song.
This will be an experiece. Jeff is considered to have been one of the best jazz blues guitaists ever. He plays with SRV (Stevie Ray) on Little Sister live. Its just amazing
Jeff could get that Fender to scream like a beast , litte Hendrix influence in there amazing 👏
"What the Fuck was that?!" Lol
That was pure talent.
How he traps the guitar against his leg with no strap, playing like this...incredible!
I loved the look on your face, It was the look of pure happiness. So happy to see young people enjoying older musicians and how utterly talented they were.
I saw Jeff Healey 3 times including a show with SRV and Jeff stole the show!
A blind guitar virtuoso! I would be ashamed to think there's ANYTHING I CANNOT DO, after admiring, in the example of Jeff Healey, what is possible for a human being to accomplish! Just...never, ever give up!
In the very beginning of the video, they show the musicians you saw on stage with him.
Born in Toronto, Ontario,Healey was raised in the city's west end. He was adopted as an infant; his adoptive father was a firefighter. When he was almost one year old, Healey lost his sight due to retinoblastoma, a rare cancer of the eyes. His eyes had to be surgically removed, and he was given ocular prostheses.
I was lucky enough to see him in a small club in Pittsburgh in the late 80’s.
The pianist was the famous Dr John. You figured out Jeff is blind ?
Another Great that is sadly gone ! 😢
Jeff Healys band is featured in the movie "Roadhouse". Great soundtrack.
Dr. John is a N'awlins legend.
The inimitable Dr. John on Piano
I believe he did a song in the movie, Roadhouse. It's amazing that he performs like that and can't see what he's playing.
I never get tired of seeing people react to this video. I can’t wait for your reaction to Jeff and SRV doing Little Sister.
His cover of " while my guitar gently weeps" is unbelievable. The day Jeff passed away , it came on my truck radio as I left work & I just knew we hd lost another great one.
Shows you can do anything you want…no matter what.
Rest In Peace and Power, Jeff. Sorry I only saw you play the one time. Your birthday, and the funniest T-shirt ever!! 💔🙏🏽😊😂
Oh, another killer live performance from Jeff that you would love, with his band, is As The Years Go Passing By - pure blues magic and Jeff is frikking sublime.
Yeah and it's from a concert with a much better audio.
He also was featured in the popular movie Road House with Patrick Swayze.
How Blue Can You Get live at Nottenden- another one with nice audio
Watch the video, of Jeff Healey and Steve Ray Vaughan playing together!!
There is a video with him and SRV live. Stevie loved him, Look at Little Sister is the song live with both of them...
Fuckin Dr John too!!! This was great. Two masters of their craft
About 20 years ago Jeff had a club in Toronto called Healeys. Every Sunday he would open in the afternoon playing jazz, blues and the American song book. The place was always packed with the older set (like us). We appreciated the atmosphere and the early start.
I lost my voice at his concert in 1984 or maybe 86 i think it was. Anyhow I was front row telling him he was better than Hendrix at the top of my lungs. While he's playing with his teeth and the rest of the jimi gimics. Another great party that day.
Jeff was blind. Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff performed Texas Flood on this same Night Nusic show! You should check that one out! Mind blowing!
You should check out Jeff heely and Stevie Ray Vaughan doing look at little sister another good Stevie Ray Vaughan to check out is Texas flood live at the El mocambo , RIP Jeff Healy & SRV 🎵🎶🎤🎸🐐💯🙏
A WHO'S WHO on stage...Omar Hakim(Drums), Dr. John(Piano), Marcus Miller(A Legend on Bass)....And Jeff Healey was Blind....Incredible
"Look at Little Sister" - Jeff Healey & Stevie Ray Vaughan
Omar Hakim on the drums! The whole band kicks A. RIP Jeff. Doctor John on keys. Marcus Miller. Doesn't get any better than this.
Saw him in a small bar. I was about 15 ft away from the stage. His cover of the Beatles While my guitar Gently Weeps is incredible.
Personally his version of that song is the best ever. I would put it ahead of Princes version.
@L33Reacts Jeff Healey Band was in an 80s movie called Roadhouse. They weren't a major part of the film but because they did a fantastic version of The Doors Roadhouse Blues.
I've seen bits and pieces of roadhouse. That is so dope they are in the movie lol their is a new version of roadhouse coming out soon apparently
JEFF HEALY (Canadian artist) was a genius bluesman and his playing on the recumbent guitar (technically much more difficult to play than the pedal steel and lap steel) was always breathtaking. Sadly, cancer too quickly deprived us of his masterful talent. Thanks.
Jeff's parents gave him a guitar as a present when he was a kid. Since he was blind, he had no frame of reference as to the normal way to play it. So he taught himself guitar by just laying it across his lap.
My ex husband went to the blind school in Brantford with Jeff. He was a very dow to earth. When his parents gave him his first guitar he was too small to hold it properly, so found it more comfortable playing o his lap. His blindness had nothing to do with it. My ex also plays the guitar, but in the traditional way.
@@bobcat4337 Thanks for that info. My older brother hipped me to Jeff in the late 1980s. As guitar player myself, I was blown away.
Sorry I missed the chat for this one. Jeff was an incredible talent. Most sighted guitar players are not even on the same planet as him. He’s truly missed. The show this is from was called, I believe, Night Music and was hosted by sax legend David Sanborn. The show brought many musicians from varied genres together to share music. It was a phenomenal late night show. That was fun to see you blown away. 😊🔥
Hi there. First, Jeff was blind. He died some time ago. RIP. 2nd the first person to play guitar and leaking it was Jimmy Hendrix on" Hey Joe " live. He also played with the guitar behind his head on the same vídeo 😊 you can check it out. Take care
Slappa Da Bass, Man!..... Lick that guitar, Jeff! LOL!
That’s DrJohn (I walked on guilded splinters) on piano
Omar effing Hakim on drums man. Marcus miller on bass...oooh man, and then Dr John on keys. Cmon, Jeff is a legend but this band was next level for this one song. Lets not forget he is introduced by multi Grammy winning David Sanborn. i know you are young but these guys are legends...all of them. Glad you recognize their genius though...well done
Met Jeff Manchester 2007 spoke to me about having an operation for his illness, sadly a few months later he was taken from us, incredibly gifted ❤️🎸❤️🎸❤️🎸
Check out Jeff Healy playing with guitarist Phil Sayce back in 2000. Phil is phenomenal! His guitar playing will melt your face! You won’t be disappointed, trust me! ✌️
This weekly show in the 1980s was hosted by sax player David Sanborn. Jeff just used David's backup band for this appearance. Marcus Miller was a fairly famous bassist back in the day. And on drums Hakim something or other.
Omar Hakim
Gotta love DR. John on the keys. They all really do a good job of keeping up with Jeff. Tight group.
Cool to see you doing Jeff. To the day I die, he will be my Dating Game answer for favourite musician ever. Changed the way I listened to music and expanded my listening genre. I used to hate blues. I cried when he passed. Additionally, Jeff was house musician in the original movie Roadhouse with his main bandmates. You can find a great upbeat song ‘When the night Comes Falling’ from the movie which comes with some great guitar solos.
Also as an aside, if you haven’t checked them out yet, if you want a real jaw dropper, check out Walk off the Earth and a video they made years ago covering Outkast’s “Hey Ya”. Toronto Canada has produced some greats.
Yay!! Peace and Love from Canada. ❤
Some of the greatest musicians in music on that stage, and it sounds like it. This is Night Music those men on stage are not Jeff's band, check credits at the beginning.
He was great. Lol played the bar in the King Edward hotel in Calgary often in the 80's. Unfortunately i never saw him then. But i did see him in the early 2000nds. Incredible how he plays.
Nice reaction :) Healey did a version of the Beatles, 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' (Written by George Harrison) that Harrison liked so much he got his friend Jeff Lynn from ELO and they played acoustic guitar and did the backing vocals on it
Thank you! I'll have to check that out Thanks for the suggestion
He was a jazz trumpeter when he wasn't melting faces with his guitar. Him and SRV have video together. Jeff's gone too unfortunately. Crazy that it's not even his band. Jeff lost his sight as a child from cancer and then his life at 41.
Not bad for a blind Canadian white boy eh!!!! Saw him at Grossman’s in Toronto back in 1989!! What a show!!! Check out the movie Roadhouse with Patrick Swayze ,,,, Jeff Healy and his band are in it!!
Saw Jeff Healey Band open for ZZTop in SF at the Cow Palace decades ago. He stood most of the show and the bassist would shadow him and bump him away from the edge of the stage & towards the mic The band was so good
I’m sure someone else will have mentioned this but: You are watching Season 1/Eps 4 of one of the best music shows ever on the air. It’s “Sunday Night Music” featuring David Sanborn (host and saxophonist extraordinaire) and that is the house band- some of the best musicians in the business (those guys holding down a sick Joe Walsh is a tribute). Dr John (piano) was also a guest and sat in. There are some fantastic shows if you have time.
SRV discovered Jeff Healey when he was playing in Canada and invited Jeff on stage with him. There is a great recording of them doing Look at Little Sister.
Jeff Healey was in town playing at another venue the night SRV ended up in the fateful helicopter crash. Jeff had seen him play that last night and they rushed over to commiserate over SRV’s death. 😢
Jeff Healey had a part in the movie, "Road House". Looked like he had a great time in that too.
Jeff Healey and his band are the House Band in the original movie with Patrick Swayze "ROADHOUSE" you need to check that out sometime. I was able to see Jeff live in the front row once, a thrill of a lifetime.
This is an unbelievable performance. You’re gonna love it.
He sings like Jimi Hendrix and plays kinda like him, too. Music is color blind and that's what's so cosmic about it. Marcus Miller is outstanding. One of my favorite people full stop. His work with Miles Davis is iconic. His work with the Metropole Orkestra at the 2013 Edison Jazz World Awards was jaw dropping. Oops. Sort of veered off of Jeff a bit. He is incredible, truly.
Marcus Miller on bass who wrote some of David Sanborn’s (sax) most well known solo tunes. Sanborn played on some of the most iconic pop tunes of the 70’s/80’s and also was in the horn section of Steely Dan’s “Time out of Mine”. The show “Night Music” has some great performances of Stevie Ray Vaughan and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Jeff Healy band is the house band in the great B movie Roadhouse with Patrick Swayed, and Sam Elliot. Plays a mean cover of Roadhouse blues from the doors....during a bar brawl...lol
Check out How Blue Can You Get live at Nottenden. That was Omar Hakim, Marcus Miller and Dr. John backing up JH, on this one. Night Music was a Friday night show (started around midnight?) that featured live music (this was at the onset of the MTV and Much Music generation) so the standard networks used to show great live music (Midnight Special, too). Peace from Jeff’s home town of Toronto.
I've known Jeff's music for some years but didn't realise that he was blind for a while. But yes- this was f'n mental.
That was a treat. Jeff Healey deserves to be known and recognized as one of the greats. I've seen two other blind guitarists who play lap-style like that and it does make sense since you can play with all five fingers.
Playing with one's teeth ("tooth picking"?) is a Blues thing that goes back to street musicians of the '30s. Jimi re-introduced it.
One of the things that I enjoy about this channel is how musicians that I've been digging for decades are new to our host. Might I suggest checking out that "Ragtime Dandy" - Dr. John. In his early Voodoo period he recorded a song called "Walk On Gilded Splinters" that you might enjoy. Humble Pie also do long jam live version of it.
You need to check out As the year's go passing by by Jeff Healey it's incredible
@L33REACTS You're gonna love this
The Good Doctor! Doctor John (Mac Rebbenack) on the keys. The king of New Orleans funk! That would be a good rabbit hole for you Lee.
One album that caught the same intensity as this one off, is Live at the London Hammersmith Odeon. Its on UA-cam. Hammer of the Gods!!❤️🔥
Glad you got to this one. One of my favs. Ass kickin' group: Jazz rock greats Marcus Miller(bs) and Omar Hakim (dms) and of course Dr. John on piano. Even the host of the show Dave Sanborn was a great sax player. Think you'd also like Jeff playing with SRV: "Look at Little Sister" Not as wild as this but nice to see the mutual appreciation
Did get to Jeff live a couple of times back in the day. And wow a force of nature , stunning live a shame he died so young. R.I.P Jeff. x
Hey L33, I should've mentioned that Jeff is blind in my song request. His playing on his lap wasn't a parlor trick - he learned that way as a child.
you need to treat yourself to a music masterpiece Jeff Healey playing 'All Along The Watchtower ' London '89
Perhaps you might like a UA-cam video with Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jeff Healey called, "Look At Little Sister." Just know, Jeff Healey lost his eye sight around 1 year old. Thank you for listening to so many of these talented musicians!
Baddest blues band ever assembled.
I saw this on TV back in 1988 on its initial broadcast and was blown away. I used to watch that Night Music show religiously every week for years and even got to go to a live studio filming. Great artists all the time and backing band was killer.
Oh shit you got to go to a taping?? That's awesome! Seems like a killer show. Jeff was absolutely mental here... I can't wait to hear more from him.
@@L33Reacts yeah definitely. I saw a taping in 1989 and I actually met and had a conversation with Pat Metheny in the elevator that day. He didn’t play in that taping but was just there to hang out, however I know he was on the show at least once. Just in case you’re not familiar, He was the guitarist on that first Joni Mitchell track you reacted to, that you liked a lot.
Jeff was incredible and I’m sure everyone agrees
No party trick ( unfortunately )
But i want to point out Night Music
That show was amazing check out more off that show
Lounge Lizards comes to mind right now
Shout out to Dr John on Piano
Saw Jeff live in Dallas ~1990, blew everyone away!
😁 Your face had a B I G questionmark all over it! 😁 Love it! 🔥🔥🔥❤️
He has never seen a guitar and was tought the "right" way but felt uncomfortable.
Next should be As The Years Go Passing By from Stuttgart Jazz festival. 🔥🔥🔥
Watch the original Road House movie. Jeff plays in the movie, just awesome!!
If you like this, then you'll also probably like his 'As the Years Go Passing By' live performance from 1995 in Germany.
He was blind and self-taught himself to play
When you can get Dr. John , Marcus Miller and Omar Hakim it says a lot about you. All legends . Look them up.
The teeth bit is a tribute to Hendrix. React to The Jimi Hendrix Experience Hey Joe at Monterey Pop festival.
And if you watch the movie Roadhouse, Jeff is the house band.
You are in for a treat!
He was featured n the movie Road House as the house band in the bar.
Dr John (keys), Marcus Miller (bass), and Omar Hakim (drums) were already highly acclaimed musicians themselves, by this point in their respective careers.
The guys you named were Healey's studio and touring band, for the most part, but he was obviously happy to play with other great musicians too, including (of course) Stevie Ray Vaughan).
Check out "Blinded by the Light" by Manfred Mann . Another version by Bruce Springsteen is really good, too. I love both of them.
The first time insaw him was on yt. Srv brought him out and the played "look @ little sister " its fire
I'll check it out! Thanks for the tip
Does it get better? Jeff, Marcus Miller on bass, Omar Hakim on drums and the Dr. Himself!!! Mac Rebennack aka Dr. John.
You got to add the yeah,yeah,yeah back in the opening.
Funny you should say that, tomorrow's videos will be the first ones with the brand new one I made today 😉
I saw him live back in the early 90s. Dr John is great too but he was not on that tour.
Dr John on keys wow . I think this was on snl
Angel Eyes and See the Light are a blind man’s 2 biggest hits! 🤔. 😅
While My Guitar Gently Weeps played by him is so darn cool!!
