    IMHO Jeff Healey is/was so underrated, even before you realize the fact that he's blind and can play the guitar like that.
    I saw him live (he didn't see me though )

    Seriously...when he played See the Light our crowd lost their collective minds. He stood up while playing leads, often needing help to get back to his stool while never missing a note in the song.

    It was cool because it was before he got a huge reputation. I'm roughly the same age as him and we heard about a - white guy who plays the blues, who is also blind.

    We had no idea about his guitar playing style and underrated singing...he played at a place called the Jubilee Auditorium, which is a small theater reserved for high school graduations, plays etc.

    About halfway through the first song my concert-going buddy screams Holy shit!

    That's awesome....I think he pretty much flew under the radar until he was in Roadhouse with Patrick Swayze

    Yeah I'm remembering similar timing. Except we had a show called the New Music, which was our version of MTV back in the day. His first song got heavy rotation there.

    I was also told I looked a lot like him as I wore my hair the same way and do share some of his facial features.

    Each member sings and at times it's a little shaky. The violin is original and well played I thought
