Yesterday the music world lost one of it's great jazz musicians, Jeff Healey. He was such a part of my youth, it's so hard to think of him as gone. Cancer robbed him of his sight at the age of one, and he taught himself how to play guitar by placing it on his lap.
Only three months older than I, and having battled cancer for so many years, I can't help but take this loss personal. As many of you know I'm in the middle of changing so many things in my life, now I'm more determined than ever to live life to the fullest!
Jeff, I fell in love with you and your music twenty years ago. When you sang "Angel Eyes" it touch my heart so deeply. Rock on in heaven, and as you sing for the angel's, somewhere here on earth, someone will be listening to your music and will be smiling! GOD BLESS YOU JEFF!
