Title: Jeff Healey -- RIP Post by: Derf on March 03, 2008, 01:04:23 PM Apparently Jeff Healey has died of cancer at 41 (http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20080303/wl_canada_afp/entertainmentcanadamusicus;_ylt=AgUdB4gYVdZTgr7.3RcjGyWs0NUE). Roadhouse fans will remember his cameo (that's the movie that introduced me to his music) as the leader of the Roadhouse band. I have several of his albums and was always amazed at his musical ability. He was an outstanding guitar player, and I am saddened to hear of his death at such a young age.
