No Jeff and his band were in the movie
But this was not from the movie
He was blind from the age of 2 Rip jeff
He couldn't see the light?
But he sure did shine on that gee tar
He was 'discovered' by Ronnie Hawkins playing guitar on the street outside the Colonial Tavern in Toronto and was invited on stage to play with them at maybe 14 years old. He was a prodigy but his real love was playing dixieland trumpet and other old jazz. His accomplishments in life should be an inspiation to anybody with a disability to not let it hold them back. His bandmates in this vid are some of the finest musicians in the world and look at how hard they are working to keep up.
I once saw Jeff play and jam with SRV snd Jeff Beck on the same stage (Skydome) and they all kicked a$$.
RIP Jeff Healey.
A great Canadian musician who left too soon at the age of 41, he was blind from cancer in his eyes and had a unique way to play guitar. Great guitarist, he covered some great songs, Angel Eyes, "I Think I Love You Too Much" and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps".
There’s a video of Jeff playing with Stevie Ray, kept up with him just fine…
Not much impressed SRV, but the way he was watching Jeff is rarely seen.
He had a cancer that took his eye sight as a wee lad. For some reason I think you're from Texas, for nothing other than your use of "y'all". 😉No matter, but the vid with J.H. jamming on stage with Texan, S.R.V is pretty great.
This was not from Road House (superb Jeff Healy Band concert). It is however an absolutely amazing snapshot of Jeff's incredible talent.
This is a Jeff Healey original song, and he does a great cover of John Hiatt’s “Confidence Man” too.
And when Jeff recorded a cover of George Harrison’s “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” it featured guest appearances by ELO's Jeff Lynne and George Harrison!
Great reaction!! LOVE this track, LOVE Mr. Jeff Healey (RIP - gone WAY too soon at 41 years, back in 2006)! What an assembly of top notch talent - I just get a kick out of watching Marcus Miller just grooving, having the time of his life, behind this blind Canadian white boy KILLING it on guitar! Kudos to Omar Hakim for holding the fort, expertly might I add, and the one and only Dr. John on keys!
Night Music was a music program, every Sunday night I believe. The man with the sax is David Sanborn. Marcus & Omar were part of the house band. Hosted by Jools Holland.
Jeff and his regular band would go on to be the house band in Road House in 1989.
My wife (then girlfriend) and I saw Jeff in our local roadhouse (Lulu's) back in 1999 - and it was a stellar performance!! Besides this track, he blew the roof off the place with his cover of Cream's Sunshine Of Your Love (25 years later and I remember it clear as day!).
What a wonderful talent - taken from us FAR too soon!
Four musicians on fire.
This wasn’t from the movie it was a television show but Jeff and his band was the house band in roadhouse great movie
I know Jason Becker got ALS.....from Zak Brown Band
That’s who it was!!
He was one of those people that was just born to play. No. Matter. What.
Rock In Peace Jeff.
Your smile is lighting up the whole room
Another amazing Canadian
Oh my god yes Jeff Healey!!!! The way he played was so unique!
Great reaction bring him on With Stevie Ray Vaghn too thanks rred ❤❤
Okay Red
I am a little jealous. You are being introduced to some crazy amazing music today. Now it's Jeff Healey with some of the best musicians: Omar Hakim on drums, Marcus Miller on bass and Dr. John on keyboards and JH on guitar. I am so jealous that you are hearing this for the first time. Enjoy this magic.
Mark
Jeff and SRV have a video together.
There's a video of Stevie Ray performing 'Look At Little Sister' with Jeff Healey if you want to double up on guitar GOATs.
Breathtaking performance 🙏
I've mentioned in the comment before that I am Canadian. And I love power trios. I found you through your Rush coverage. in the '80s I think it was 87 I was living in Toronto and a friend called me on a Wednesday night and said you could have come see this guy at the Nags Head North Tavern. It was Jeff Healey there were 25 people in the bar and it was freaking amazing I became a fan that day. I was just visiting Toronto and went back to my hometown in New Brunswick. Every time Jeff Healey would play in Halifax Nova Scotia 15 of my friends and I would drive down to see him. What an amazing artist and I miss him. You should check out when the Night comes falling from the Roadhouse soundtrack. Now I've never found a video of him doing All Along the Watchtower live but if you can find it you should check it out. Just a thought from a fan thanks for your shows
I bought "See The Light" in 1988 after reading the album review in Rolling Stone and played it so much that it was marred by scratches, so I got the tape. In response to your reaction, I just went looking in my old tape collection and found it. So, thank you. I haven't played it probably for more than 25 years. If I can get my old tape player to work, I will play it in a few minutes while I make my dinner. R.I.P. the great Jeff Healey, gone far too soon.
Imagine what a great band it would be Jeff , Larnell Lewis drummer with Snarky puppy , Geddy Lee from Rush ,,All from Toronto,
Jeff lost his sight at one year old due to cancer....he unfortunately lost his life to cancer as well at the age of 41 in 2006.....Saw him live with regular band The Jeff Healey Band back in 1991 and was spectacular!
R.I.P. Jeff....
Nag's Head North?
Another Canadian from Toronto.
Went to high school with Jeff😁
As great as he was you should see his performances with Stevie Ray Vaugan when they play together it blows the roof off the building. They have them on several you tube channels.
@@nethanelmasters5170 great suggestion awesome performance srv and Jeff 👍👍
Not only Jeff gives an outstanding performance, but he also has freakin Marcus Miller on the bass guitar, this performance is incredible.
And Omar Hakim on the drums.
Marcus not only backed Jeff as good as anyone could he was right there watching out for Jeff it looked like to me That impressed me as much as his playing
@@garya7893 Everybody kept an eye out for Jeff. I was a regular at Healey's in the early 2000's. He was a very warm nice person.
There is a video of Jeff and SRV playing together and it is truly incredible!!!!😮😮😮😮
I heard it was Stevie Ray who taught Jeff how to play with his teeth..
That bassist is the great Marcus Miller. Guys a legend. Love this version!
Getting the chance to see Jeff in small venues as he was establishing himself in Ontario was a true gift.
Indeed it was!
I saw him a couple of times when he was doing the university pub circuit. Funny thing is we all knew how lucky we were to witness him before he inevitably got "discovered".
Another great Canadian artist. I wish I had seen him live. Thanks for posting and keep up the great work!! Oh, this wasn't from Roadhouse.
He was a treat to watch in the clubs.
@@johnandrews3568 I'll bet he was. Again, I wish I had seen him!!
Jeff was incredible! I believe the guitarist/composer you were mentioning is Jason Becker.
He used to play the jazz and blues clubs in Toronto. Once they had him under contract, he couldn't jam with his guitar anymore without getting paid. So, he went jamming in the jazz clubs with his cornet.
Have you ever seen the movie Roadhouse with Patrick Swasey...Jeffs album recording band played the bar band....lol
SRV discovered Jeff Healey and they totally enjoyed playing together. Check out SRV / Jeff Healey “Look at Little Sister”. JH said that playing with SRV was zero competition, just pure music!
If you liked that, then you really should check out Jeff's video with SRV 😎🎸🙂🎸
Jeff Healey & SRV
"Look at Little Sister"
.
Took my wife of (now) 34 years to see Jeff on our first date. He melted our f@$#&*g faces. This video doesn’t begin to describe how good and how LOUD Jeff was.
Jeff was in the movie Roadhouse but this performance wasn't in the movie he covered the doors song Roadhouse Blues by the doors in the movie as well as a couple of his own originals. This performance was from a late night tv show. Jeff lost his eyes to a rare form of cancer when he was only 1 they had to remove his eyes in order to save his life. You should check out the video with Jeff Healy and Stevie Ray Vaughan doing the song Look At Little Sister together. We need to go back to the days when on Friday and Saturday nights TV would bring you shows like this . with big name bands putting on a show.
@@davehind3193 ahhh! I see
He was great in Roadhouse!
❤❤❤❤
You will love Jeff Healey❤! I love your reactions
He was also able to do things with a guitar that other can't because the way he played the guitar on his lap he could use his thumb. 👋🏻
Hey Red, are you from New Orleans? You say "y'all" and you know Dr. John. Just wondering. Btw, Jeff does a cover of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" that kicks ass. It was my introduction to him. Incredible musician.
I've never seen that video before. Awesome.
Jeff and his band were the house band in Roadhouse but did not play See the Light in the movie.
My brother got me into Jeff at age 14, and i wasn't a blues fan. I'm now a blues fan at aged 50 and Jeff remains my favourite blues guitarist, although Gary Moore is right there too.
Another fantastic Canadian artist taken way too young❤🇨🇦 he was so amazing Stevie Ray Vaughn asked Jeff to play with him...check it out there are videos of it!
This video isn't from the movie. I think it's from a late night show. Jeff Healey, however, is in the original Road House movie as a guitarist in a band (his original band, I think) in the bar, The Double Deuce. More misinformation and lack of information. (Jeff Healey has been blind since 2 years of age.) from a subscriber, but whatever. Jeff Healey, nonetheless in the performance you were intended to be shown. Never mind being blind. His playing is jaw-dropping!! I wish this was his original band because the rhythm section section here is way better than the guys he plays with. They're not bad, but they're not these guys!
Am I myself lactose intolerant? Who knows, I am a very mysterious guy.
One of the greatest musicians to ever come out of my home country, Canada. In a first for the Juno Awards (Canada's Grammys), both he and Colin James won best new artist.
I bet nobady knows who Colin James is.
@@Ilikeryche That's a generalization, but he is less known than Healey, but then Healey is not well known either. In Canada, we know them all.
Jeff was born with a rare form of cancer that took his sight. That is why he l leardned to play the guitar on his lap. If you want to see more of him you might enjoy his duet with SRV look at little sister.
I saw Jeff Healey in a night club in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, "The Misty Moon" He walked off the stage and the crowd body surfed back to the stage, didn't miss a cord!!!!😀👌👍✌🤘
Music always heightens the emotions. I have this album somewhere on cd! I bought it when it came out when I was a member of one of those monthly cd magazine clubs! He was an incredible guitarist. Ah yes I remember watching a documentary about the guy you are thinking of. Jason Becker, at least I think that's right.
@@mattmid7012 oh wow!
One of the best musicmouvie of the world.
The guitarist with ALS is Jason Becker
Check him out with his regular band live at the Stuttgart Jazz festival "As The Years Go Passing By". For a harder sound from Jeff that has been only reacted to once from what I can see, listen to "Feel Better" - AMAZING IMO. Cheers neighbor. ❤
Jeff Healey played in the movie Road House, this is not part of it.
Howdy Neighbor!! Glad you found him. Had not heard Jeff in a LONG time!!! Nice flashback!!!
Music can move the soul in ways that real life doesn't. There are times, that I too am brought to tears by performances!!
Maybe check out Jonny Lang - Lie To Me
I live in Vancouver and have seen Mr. Healy a few times as he was just at the time in his young days would perform at The Yale Pub. In the years that have past I'd get off of work and go the Yale and Jeff would be there. Now be it, Jeff at the time didn't play with the likes of B.B. King or Mr. Stevie Ray Vaughan but he was a headliner 100%. Mr. Healy went on to do great performances with many great artist and is WELL known in Canada. It's those simple moments in life where you brush by total greatness and feel it, not because of cameras but because that person gives off that possitive greatness. Jeff just gave off that vibe that performers now a days crave that moment. If you want to go on with a future performance that Jeff did you might love this reaction

Jeff never even knew he was white.
Btw Jeff was blind
Hey Redhead go watch the original Roadhouse ❤❤
Many have tried to emulate his style and failed miserably! Jeff was simply incredible! He has several entries on my Blues playlist. "Angel Eyes" is the tune that will make you weep.
The shredder who has ALS is Jason Becker who is still with us. Last I heard he was still composing via a software that can carry out the computers functions based on how he move his eyes. (About the only he can still move unassisted.) He was stricken just before he was to tour with David Lee Roth.
He was in Roadhouse. This performance, however, was not from that film. This was live, in front of a studio audience. No retakes. That being said....What an incredible performance!
Hey readhead neighbor he’s blind from cancer, He later died in 2008 from cancer so sad😢
@@kerryfisher5264 oh wow
Jeff was self-taught from the age of around 3 or 4 when his parents gave him a guitar.
And PS Jimi already created a child, with James Brown, and his name was Prince.✌
YES!!! 😂
Would watch Sanborn’s show late night early 90s. Miller on bass and Omar Hakim on drums!
People should tell you the man is blind. Jesus.
Jeff played at Toronto's Sars-stock with another great Canadian, Sass Jordan, singing Make You a Believer. Check it out, you'll love it.
Some Sass would be good.
Funny you should mention Stevie Ray Vaughn at the end. You should check out Jeff Healey playing with SRV on "Look At Little Sister". You can see the mutual respect between these two guitar legends.
Oh wow!! Yes!!
Healey , was most definitely the best guitarist I've seen live , his technical ability with applying blues scales with also jazz scales I've never seen before , f**k he was a genius.
Best solo from healey is cruel little number and his wah was freaking awesome on that track...
Oh ' by the way ? Your very pretty haha lols
No no no! Don't forbid yourself to cry, please! If you keep bottling up those emotions, eventually you'll reach a breaking point that feels much worse!
Regard crying as a kind of an inner cleansing process, which some also call 'purging'! And Music is often referred to as a healer after all!
😉👍🌈☀️🎵
Comet nor Ajax can wipe the smile from your face.
Jeff Healey was in the movie Roadhouse but this was not from it.
Jeff is Canadian and he lost his sight to ocular cancer when he was a year old. He was given a guitar at three and played it in his lap as it was too hard to reach the strings when he was so little.
Unfortunately cancer claimed him when he was 41.
He has a duet with Stevie Ray Vaughan on RUclips playing Little Sister.
Wowww!
See the Light is the title of Jeff’s first record. Killer album.
Jeff Healey was in the movie Roadhouse but this is not from the film.
More Canadian talent!
Great Canadian artist! 🇨🇦❤ Awesome Guitarist. Saw him live twice here in Canada 🇨🇦. Great show.
Hey red it's me again,
I saw that you were reacting to Jeff healey. I'm so glad you are being introduced to so many good musicians. You obviously have a great following of people who have good taste in music.
@@marklawrence9599 he is so good
Hey my sexy red head neighbor when you do Dan Vasc Amarican Trilogy this song was Dans Dads favorite Elvis song and Dan struggled to sing this he sheds a tear at the very end his Dan had passed shortly before he sang this we will be waiting my friend see you soon
Was it a coincidence that you are wearing the Dr Teeth shirt and reacting to a video with a killer Dr John solo in it?
He was also in roadhouse, this is SNL or some talk show, he was great ....
His performance of "As the yeas go passing by" in Frankfurt Germany is arguably even better. It's on youtube
🇨🇦❤
Please react to dimash when ive got you it's really good
Great reaction love and respect from the UK 👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍
@@jukeboxdave6026 thank you
I'm glad I was able to see him perform live from the front row in 1993.
Also got to enjoy Los Lobos, Albert Collins, Little Jimmy King that same day .....
🖤
Jeff passed away awhile back and music lost a true rare treasure!!!
Being Canadian ..seen him live.....miss Jeff RIP he passed 2008
One of my fav drummers on this one in Omar Hakim, with Dr. John a star in his own right tinkling the ivories! Jeff was a wondrous spirit and talented muso!
Some great accompaniment with Jeff on that one.
Not from roadhouse
Jason Becker
RIP Jeff!!
🤘🔥🎸👍❤️🙂
Killer guitarist. Sorely missed. I saw him here in ATL around 1990.
You being from Kentucky, and me being from Maine. Will that be an issue?
Jeff was a force of nature, gone too soon.
There is a clip of him and Stevie Ray , doing " Little Sister" on RUclips, from one of these late night gigs. Worth a watch! ❤
I have related this elsewhere on RUclips, however I can't help but repeat it, truth it being and damn lucky as I was ...
Mid/late '80s, Victoria BC, early evening on a warm summer Thursday: Me and some of the boys headed out to a local dance club / pick up bar that usually had a DJ. (🤭 Hey, I was young, well, late 20s, and there would likely be pretty girls there! 😂). When we arrived, we were perplexed to discover there was a lineup to get in, with posters advertising a live performer (not usual) debuting that night, with praises by the likes of B.B. King and Stevie Ray Vaughan. So, what the hell, we waited in line.
Once we got in we sat at a table right by the dance floor, about 15 feet from a two foot raised stage. After ordering our beer, the band came out, obviously guiding a blind guy. My buddies and I kinda looked at each other quizzically. 🤔 They sat him down in a chair onstage, handed him an electric guitar, which he placed on his lap 😯 ... then, when they started to play ... my world changed. Forever. It was Jeff Healey and his band, before their first album came out: I had never heard of him/them before, but he, specifically, had my attention now.
He proceeded to play the cleanest, most amazing, unbelievable guitar licks I'd ever heard. He played blues, he played rock, he played country, he even played a bit of what sounded like flamenco. He played Hendrix better than Hendrix, he played with his teeth, he played while literally jumping around blind like a mad man. He seemed to be having a religious experience onstage. Despite it being a dance club, NOBODY danced that night. Every person, patrons and staff alike, stood around, hypnotized, with their mouths agape, staring, hardly believing what they were seeing and hearing.
I went back Friday and Saturday, and again three nights the following week, as they were playing a two week gig there. Their first album came out shortly thereafter, and then he was in a movie with Patrick Swayze, and then ... well, I sadly never got to see Jeff Healey perform live again. But I still feel blessed, and I shall never forget how amazing the experience was that first night I saw him play! 😊
Rock on, Redheaded Neighbor! ✊️(I had to fight the natural/national urge to spell it "Neighbour". 🇨🇦😋)
Thats it. That is why your family decline my offers.
