      Technically he’s only blind to our normal perspective, from Jeff’s own perspective people and guitars are still audible and tactile objects in space.
      He had developed super skills we sighted folks never did.

    @shawnyboie -Jeff was not born blind but he might as well have been. He lost his sight at 8 months due to cancer. Unfortunately he lost his life to the same cancer in 2008. Thankful for the years and music he gave us.

    Managed to see Colin and Jeff play in Calgary long ago and then caught Colin in Toronto and later Manhattan (had a chance to chat with him; approachable and decent). As has been noted by others, would have been nice were Colin and Jeff to have made an album or two.

    @MrJett1971 9 років тому +28

    +lesterclayool1--I've met Colin James on a number of occasions, and would call him anything BUT difficult to get along with. For me as a fan, talking blues with a master bluesman was a thrill, and he hung out with a fan, something many artists don't do. As for "hardly having a career these days", he doesn't play mainstream pap or garbage, which seems to be what sells nowadays. He loves music from a bygone era (or two), and doesn't follow trends.

      @gragor11 8 років тому +1

      +Jett Crash All Music dot calm my great source for music trivia said about Colin James . . . . " .. All of James's albums are well-recorded affairs. The only problem is, he doesn't tour the U.S. very much, and spends most of his time in Canada. In 1998, he toured with Steve Winwood, Little Feat and Keith Richards; Colin James & the Little Big Band II followed a year later."
      Imaging that. Spends his time in Canada. Eh?

    • @MrJett1971
      @MrJett1971 8 років тому +3

      +Gra Gor--that would be because most Americans have their heads so far up their butt when it comes to music, that they fail to recognize artists who aren't American or British... Many Canadian artists have carved out a decent career for themselves based on album sales and touring in Canada. I don't know that Colin has any regrets...
