I did not know he was battling cancer all that time. He was here only for a short time, but his work made it into the lexicon of popular American music where it can live forever.

Gonna miss him.

Bummer indeed.
My son and I got to seem him live at the Bayfront Blues Fest a number of years ago.
He blew everyone away.

RIP Mr. Healey.

I have a copy of "See the Light"- great recording for the playing, not so much for studio sound quality. I look forward to hearing the last album.

His version of "Blue Jean Blues" is the greatest. Tears the ZZ Top version a new one.

RIP and Godspeed- get to jammin up there with Stevie Ray and the jams of the angels.

I had the pleasure of meeting him a couple of times and he was truly a good guy. R.I.P., buddy.

Bummer. I am a fan. The unorthodox way he held a guitar gave him an advantage when it came to how far he could spread his fingers...and thumb in his case. Too young to die. The world loses.

I liked his "I'm evil and I'm here to stay"

Sad to hear that he's gone, but like SRV his music will live on. I wish I'd gotten to
see him do a live show.

On Monday XM Radio played a tribute on the Blues channel, Bluesville.
They did many of his tunes including Blue Jean Blues.
At the end, they played 3 or 4 tunes from the upcoming CD.
It really sounds like a winner.
I will get it the day it's released.
The CD release had been delayed a week or so ago, XM has one of the only copies.
They got special permission to play the new songs.

Bummer indeed.

Brad
