RIP Jeff Healey

http://www.thestar.com/News/Obituary/article/308736

Legendary Toronto blues guitarist and old-style jazz aficionado Jeff Healey died yesterday in Toronto’s St. Joseph’s Hospital after a lifelong battle with a rare form of cancer — retinoblastoma — that blinded him in his first year. He was 41.

Shocked to hear the news tonight. I think I still might even have his cd “See the Light’ in a box somewhere. He was a wicked blues guitar player for his unique style.
