Shame On Radio (2004-04-12)  Forget this man lays his guitar on his lap and CREATED this style of playing the electric guitar. I know of no other guitar player or have heard of one in the world who plays his electric guitar laying across his lap(If there is, please enlighten me). Forget he's blind. Forget he plays with 2 talented, underrated musicians(a bass player and a drummer - a 3 piece). Just listen to this music with your eyes closed and if you can't hear and believe this is some of the best music ever written(to be compared with Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page), you don't have a good ear for music. This cd has it all. Great lyrics, great hooks, great arranging, and timeless music that will stand the test of time, like "the Beatles". Why the "Radio World" stopped playing his music is beyond me. Buy this cd!!
His first and best (2003-07-29)  Ive heard every guitar player out there and Healey is the best- faster and smoother than Gary Moore, better than Joe Satriani and all the rest. This disc was released after the film Road House where he had a small role and supplied the music- in that film he plays vicious versions of some Cream songs.
Blues rock done right (2002-10-28)  Jeff Healey was only really well-known for a few years in the fickle popular music landscape, which is a shame. This first album of his has always been a great one in the realm of blues rock. "Confidence Man", "River Of No Return", and "I Need To Be Loved" are all bluesy highlights. "Nice Problem To Have" is a great, mellow instrumental, while "Hideaway" is a catchier, more up-tempo instrumental. "Angel Eyes", a top 10 hit, is a great romantic ballad on the album. "Blue Jean Blues" is moody yet melody-laced, while the title track is a catchy rocker of sorts to end this great album. It is not a stretch to compare this album to efforts by Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughn, as other reviewers have done. Kenny Wayne Sheppard also comes to mind a bit, although he is a bit heavier overall. As anyone who knows anything about music knows, the blues is the basis for so many of the best elements of rock and roll music. For sure, they blend exceptionally well on an album like this. This is an overlooked gem, worthy of note for more than the one well-known hit.
