There's a couple of moments when you can see Marcus reacting to Jeff's playing with a "Holy Fuck!". He looks truly blown away. The pitches that he ends up at in his bends is deadly. Unbelievable player.
Healy was the only thing good about the movie Roadhouse.
Imagine what he'd've been like if someone had put one of those twohanded 12 string newage guitar things from the 70's in his hands before he'd started guitar!!!!
I have a couple of his LPs - he was cool. Gone now though.
Saw JH live at the University way back just before his big breakout. It was excellent..and we were like 10 feet from the stage. Big loss of a true talent.
Remember seeing him in Ottawa in the late 80s at an outdoor stadium gig. He really did have "the touch" - guy's tone was out of this World. I kinda lost touch when he drifted into jazz, playing trumpet etc but he had it in spades.
