A Canadian here who knew Jeff personally. P[ayed with him at a cottage on Lake Simcoe, Him on a Dobro and a few of us on acoustics, harp and bass. A gathering of people in a fireside arena that went down as a memorable moment for all who were lucky. He died a year later. I am now 73 and the smell of smoke is still remembered. Not from the fire but from that dobro. A kind and humble presence who's fate was known by all who was there. RIP Jeff and thanks for making each campfire since a walk in memory.
Toronto girl here and a huge fan of our hometown boy Jeff, SRV & the blues. I'm envious of your Lake Simcoe experience with Jeff and the wonderful memory you have of that time. Toronto was such an amazing town musically to grow up in. With me it started in 1969 with all the music festivals, concerts, bar bands, etc. I think I spent the 70's just working to pay for live music.....a great investment for amazing memories!
Two of the greatest guitarists to walk the Earth. I once sent a reporter to cover Jeff Healey performing at a little lounge at The Glengarry Best Western in Truro, Nova Scotia. Nobody had heard of Jeff at that point. In no time he was performing with the likes of SRV.
Two dudes having the same passion for music (in particular, guitar) are playing together in another realm. Both of them gone too soon, but luckily for us, they left reminders on TH-cam and streaming platforms to watch and listen to in amazement.
@@ImperialRadioYT Well, if you MUST question info passed along (is if it were a lie), here's just 1 article (Wikipedia) I found in a 5 second search: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Healey#:~:text=They%20received%20a%20write-up%20in%20Toronto%27s%20NOW%20magazine%2C,by%20guitarists%20Stevie%20Ray%20Vaughan%20and%20Albert%20Collins%29. Here's an excerpt from it: Shortly thereafter he was introduced to bassist Joe Rockman (born January 1, 1957, Toronto) and drummer Tom Stephen (born February 2, 1955, New Brunswick - died February 20, 2023), with whom he formed a trio, the Jeff Healey Band. The band made their first public appearance at the Birds Nest, located upstairs at Chicago's Diner on Queen Street West in Toronto. They received a write-up in Toronto's NOW magazine, and soon were playing almost nightly in local clubs, such as Grossman's Tavern and the famed blues club Albert's Hall (where Jeff Healey was discovered by guitarists Stevie Ray Vaughan and Albert Collins).
When talented musicians get together a there’s a good vibe they just know when to take the lead or pull back a little. It’s a really cool thing to be part of.
My grandmother lived down the street from Stevie Ray in Dallas and I never knew! I did see him in Dallas at a Bon Jovi Concert he joined them in a couple of songs. Love Stevie miss him very much, that was a very sad day!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Back in 1990 at Red Rock's Amphitheatre, watched The Jeff Healey Band open up for Bonnie Raitt, and holy sh#t! LOL! Bonnie Raitt was awesome too! But, Jeff Healey! Next level!! 🙂
Top Notch World Class Blues! At the beginning of the song, Stevie is playing rhythm & the really cool licks in the background are coming from Jeff! When Jeff stands up, he has to "hug" his guitar because he has no strap...That is incredible how he can play like that. 2 good friends giving us an incredible performance & having a great time . This is one of my all time favorite SRV videos because he's playing with Jeff...It just doesn't get any better for me!
REMEMBER JIMI HENDRIX played Behind his back,played with his teeth,behind his head and one handed before WE even heard of Stevie and Jeff!! YES Stevie and Jeff are AWESOME ,GREAT GUITARIST. WE are So lucky to have Stevie and Jeff in our lives!! Jimi started it All and it's GREAT have Stevie and Jeff PICKUP where JIMI left OFF !!
I was fortunate to see both of these legends live, the last time with Jeff he opened for the Allman Brothers Band!! I first saw Stevie before he recorded his first album, then again a few times after he made it big! I've been fortunate to see many legends before their passing, BB King, John Lee Hooker, Gregg Allman, Johnny Winter, Bobby Bland (he and BB King got a 1 hour standing ovation before the police had to push the crowd out), Led Zeppelin shortly before John Bohnam's passing, Motorhead before Lemmy passed, etc..
They received a write-up in Toronto's NOW magazine, and soon were playing almost nightly in local clubs, such as Grossman's Tavern and the famed blues club Albert's Hall (where Jeff Healey was discovered by guitarists Stevie Ray Vaughan and Albert Collins).
Jeff was incredible I never got to see him live but he had a guitarist that toured with him named Phillip sayce he his also very good he played rhythm for the most part but one live show something happened to Jeff’s amp or pedal board and he said take it Phillip and he played the rest of the song, from what I understand Jeff and Stevie were really good friends
@@barsandbarbells2022 You are so welcome! I love collaborations and this one is Top Notch! Phil definitely needs to get a SRV hat! Heck, both of you should! God bless and have a great weekend.
Notice both guitars upside down, in honor of Jimmi Hendrix that played left hand but learned on a right hander because its all he had. Stevie Rays idol is Jimmi Hendrix
Great job. You guys should really watch Stevie Ray Vaughan doing "Look at Little Sister" live at Austin City Limits 1989. Once the middle eight begins, pay close attention to his guitar strings. I don't want to tell you what happens next or I will ruin the video. I promise you that you will be impressed. Another thing, If you look at the guitar he plays most of the time (Number 1) it has a left handed guitar Tremolo (Whammy Bar) installed. It is a long story on how that came about. I wont get into that now. I grew up in North Dallas and Stevie grew up in Oak Cliff, a suburb of Dallas on the South Side at the same time. Unfortunately for me, we never knew each other. Another one you should see is "Life Without you" at the Capital Theater 1985. Pay very close attention during the first 30 seconds of the song. Hint: his guitar changes from red to white. Most people never notice what is happening and never see the guitar change. When you watch Stevie play, never blink or you might miss something.
This one has Stevie playing his lefty guitar with the righty neck. If anyone knows of an article where he explains why he only did that for one guitar, I'd love a heads up on where to read more about it.
Stevie's brother Jimmie was lead guitar for The Fabulous Thunderbirds, and they made an album together called Family Style. If you haven't check out Pride and Joy, and there's a video of SRV doing a 20 minute pre-concert sound check that's better than some bands' concerts.
You was talking about Stevie’s hat interesting fact he had all of his hats custom made because he could not find one off the rack that he could wear. The people that made his hats was called Texas Hatters in Lockhart, Texas
I’ve known Jeff’s music since before I knew he was blind!! It wasn’t until I saw Road House that I saw he was “ A Blind White Boy” as Patrick called him. But Stevie’s music is and always wil be immortal. And I’m sorry to all the Stevie, and Jeff die hard fans out there. But when mentioning greatest guitarists, Eddie Van Halen MUST be mentioned with them. RIP EDDIE!!
How did I miss this video? It is an all-timer in the world of RVC . It has it all -- Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Healey , Look At Little Sister , and Phil and Sam . Both the song and the reaction video are way too short.
check out jeff healey at massy hall for Ronnie Hawkins 60th birthday. played lead with Jerry Lee louis a hole stage full of rock legends ie gowan from Styx carl perkins and members of the band a must see
Loved the reactions…would love to see you react to Supertramp-School, or anything off the Crime of the Century album. Love and respect from Saskatchewan 🇨🇦🖖🏻
If you go back and watch SRV sing this solo, he breaks a string and he does a guitar swap in the middle of the song without missing a beat. Never seen that before.
So, guys... Stevie Ray took up guitar because his older brother, Jimmie played. You should check out Stevie Ray and Jimmie playing together. And when I say "together"...I mean something that you've never seen before. th-cam.com/video/TdmlEZAWYIM/w-d-xo.html
@@douglaspensack3499 oh gotcha! Not usually referred to as blind. Threw me off. The Brothers Winter‼️. Because of their condition they kept out of the hot Texas sun and taught themselves all their great skills🎶
For an intro into the origins of modern blues, you have to start with KINDHEARTED WOMAN from Robert Johnson, and then jump to MANNISH BOY from Muddy Waters.
Hey. Don't let anything hold ya back from being the best of anything. They both were on point with the music....I bet a ticket stub from that concert is worth $500 at least.
IMO, the only currently performing guitarist/singer who can match SRV is Joe Bonamassa. You saw him with Beth Hart…beautiful blues playing by Joe. But you need to see some of his blues rock where he also sings; Goin’ Down….live at The Greek, for instance.. or The Ballad of John Henry, live at The Royal Albert Hall.
Hello again! I’m hoping you’ll take my request and break you brains even further!! This is “Ton Pan Alley” with Stevie Ray and his buddy, Johnny Copeland. It’s a deep Blues number. Absolute FIRE! th-cam.com/video/AGPx-ekqZEo/w-d-xo.html I’m sure you will absolutely love it!! ❤️Donna G

I love the smile on Stevie's face when Jeff stands up. I can never get enough of this one.
In a league of they're own👍
Just shows what a humble human Stevie was. To just step back and let someone else take the lead.
He love to share the stage with other artists
He discovered Jeff apparently.
Two absolute LEGENDS who left us WAY before their time... RIP Jeff and Stevie.
Two of the greatest guitarists to walk the Earth. I once sent a reporter to cover Jeff Healey performing at a little lounge at The Glengarry Best Western in Truro, Nova Scotia. Nobody had heard of Jeff at that point. In no time he was performing with the likes of SRV.

SRV and Albert King was the 2 men that discovered Jeff Healey in a Club and they knew right then that this boy was a very very special person .
If you didn't hear this before, SRV actually is the one who FOUND Jeff Healey and introduced the world to him, so this explains videos like this.

Blues rock is the best way to send your inner soul to your outer emotions!
2 legends just having a great time doing what they do. Can't beat that🤘🤘
These 2 together always makes me cry. Beautiful. Talent respecting talent.
All the best.
Cheers.
It's impossible not to move! lol One of my favorite SRV songs and it was absolutely amazing with both of those guitarists! Loved the reaction!
So good!
One of the best live versions ever of any song

Simply amazing!
One of my favorite Jeff Healey songs is Angel Eyes. It brings back so many wonderful memories with my late wife, to whom I would sing it to.
What a duo!🎸🎸😁🎸🎸
Me and my baby brother's song.
Such a wonderful performance
Jeff Healey...As the years go passing by
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT
Absolute classic... Thanks for another awesome reaction!
We loved it! Glad you did too!
REMEMBER JIMI HENDRIX played Behind his back,played with his teeth,behind his head and one handed before WE even heard of Stevie and Jeff!! YES Stevie and Jeff are AWESOME ,GREAT GUITARIST. WE are So lucky to have Stevie and Jeff in our lives!! Jimi started it All and it's GREAT have Stevie and Jeff PICKUP where JIMI left OFF !!
Jeff Healey shows you that the blues is a feel....
SRV does a version of MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB, believe it or not. Besides his great play, he lets the man on keyboards show off too.
Two of the Greats… these guys are up there with Eddie Van Halen, Jimi Hendrix, and Eric Clapton as the best guitarists of all time
SRV was one of a kind. Jeff was insanely good as well
I was fortunate to see both of these legends live, the last time with Jeff he opened for the Allman Brothers Band!! I first saw Stevie before he recorded his first album, then again a few times after he made it big! I've been fortunate to see many legends before their passing, BB King, John Lee Hooker, Gregg Allman, Johnny Winter, Bobby Bland (he and BB King got a 1 hour standing ovation before the police had to push the crowd out), Led Zeppelin shortly before John Bohnam's passing, Motorhead before Lemmy passed, etc..
SRV the heart and soul of Oak Cliff Dallas.
This is Top quality Blues at its best
That was awesome! I'm a fan of Stevie and Jeff, had never seen that one before
They received a write-up in Toronto's NOW magazine, and soon were playing almost nightly in local clubs, such as Grossman's Tavern and the famed blues club Albert's Hall (where Jeff Healey was discovered by guitarists Stevie Ray Vaughan and Albert Collins).
Jeff was a canadian ❤🇨🇦
Hope yall know Jeff was in the movie Road house.
I highly recommend you guys watch SRV and Johnny Copeland perform "Tin Pan Alley", live. The intro alone will blow you away. Thx
It gets no better!
Jeff was incredible I never got to see him live but he had a guitarist that toured with him named Phillip sayce he his also very good he played rhythm for the most part but one live show something happened to Jeff’s amp or pedal board and he said take it Phillip and he played the rest of the song, from what I understand Jeff and Stevie were really good friends
Soooo glad you did this one. I along with others, highly suggested it to you.
Thanks for the idea!
@@barsandbarbells2022 You are so welcome! I love collaborations and this one is Top Notch!
Phil definitely needs to get a SRV hat! Heck, both of you should!
God bless and have a great weekend.

Great to see you guys doing SRV and Jeff Healey again, but they're guitar greats that you most likely never heard of before.
2 guitar gods
You two are very good reactors….good luck.Yes, these two guitarists are phenomenal.
Thank you!
You was talking about Stevie’s hat interesting fact he had all of his hats custom made because he could not find one off the rack that he could wear. The people that made his hats was called Texas Hatters in Lockhart, Texas
Could you please do Jeff Healys As the years go passing by
I’ve known Jeff’s music since before I knew he was blind!! It wasn’t until I saw Road House that I saw he was “ A Blind White Boy” as Patrick called him. But Stevie’s music is and always wil be immortal. And I’m sorry to all the Stevie, and Jeff die hard fans out there.

Next is that SRV plays with his brother, Jimmie. They jammed together on same guitar.
Was the band in the movie roadhouse
Jeff heally
How did I miss this video? It is an all-timer in the world of RVC . It has it all --
Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Healey , Look At Little Sister , and Phil and Sam .
Both the song and the reaction video are way too short.
Should do Stairway to Heaven live msg 1973. Greatest live performance ever hands down
check out jeff healey at massy hall for Ronnie Hawkins 60th birthday. played lead with Jerry Lee louis
a hole stage full of rock legends ie gowan from Styx carl perkins and members of the band
a must see
Something really special…
SRV - George W. Bush Inaugural Concert
It’s a mini-concert and includes SRV’s big brother Jimmy.
It is called a celebration of Blues and Soul💙
Loved the reactions…would love to see you react to Supertramp-School, or anything off the Crime of the Century album. Love and respect from Saskatchewan 🇨🇦🖖🏻

He broke a string playing Look at Little Sister at Austin City Limits 1989. The smoothest guitar switch ever💯
So, guys... Stevie Ray took up guitar because his older brother, Jimmie played. You should check out Stevie Ray and Jimmie playing together. And when I say "together"...I mean something that you've never seen before.
th-cam.com/video/TdmlEZAWYIM/w-d-xo.html
I saw Stevie and his brother in 86 on the Soul to Soul Tour, where they shared a double neck guitar! Awesome show!
I second that emotion - Pipeline
If it was any better than this I wouldn't be able to take it. 🤘
Healey? Yes! Another great blind blues guitarist: Johnny Winter.
Johnny Winter wasn't blind!
@@harrietmiller3982 Legally blind, common in people with Albinism.
@@douglaspensack3499 oh gotcha! Not usually referred to as blind. Threw me off. The Brothers Winter‼️. Because of their condition they kept out of the hot Texas sun and taught themselves all their great skills🎶
I believe Johnny eventually lost his sight.
For an intro into the origins of modern blues, you have to start with KINDHEARTED WOMAN from Robert Johnson, and then jump to MANNISH BOY from Muddy Waters.
I really miss these two guys💔💔.
SAGA - ON THE LOOSE
(studio and then maybe a more recent live version. They arestill great!)
Guys you got to see SRV DO LITTLE WINGS CHECK IT OUT
Hey. Don't let anything hold ya back from being the best of anything. They both were on point with the music....I bet a ticket stub from that concert is worth $500 at least.
"Voodoo child" try the Original by Jimmy Hendrix! Steve was a prodigy of his.
Jeff made that Strat his bitch...This is the best you will ever hear
You know it's going down when the camera itself is moving to the beat
IMO, the only currently performing guitarist/singer who can match SRV is Joe Bonamassa. You saw him with Beth Hart…beautiful blues playing by Joe. But you need to see some of his blues rock where he also sings; Goin’ Down….live at The Greek, for instance.. or The Ballad of John Henry, live at The Royal Albert Hall.
Check out edgar winter and his brother johnny playing Tobacco road
SRV...NONE BETTER! How about the GOATS....THAT WOULD BE LED ZEPPELIN! 😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Do L.Z. Live!
Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Eric Johnson are all well worth checking out. Great guitarists, all.
😊👍👍👍
Guys you're talking about guitars and blues. You really need to listen to Eric Clapton playing with b.b. King. Talk about Great guitar and blues. 😊👍
Jeff is blind and was in road house
You play pretty good for a blind white boy yeah and i thought you'd be bigger OGs know RIP stevie and Jeff
You guys need to listen to early Kenny Wayne
Just a shame Jeff didn't sing
No hate to Stevie, but Jeff clearly has the advantage on him, playing. and he would too if he had a mic
There's a better one out there with them Jeff gets down and Stevie looks over at him like wtf ?
Hello again! I’m hoping you’ll take my request and break you brains even further!! This is “Ton Pan Alley” with Stevie Ray and his buddy, Johnny Copeland. It’s a deep Blues number. Absolute FIRE!
