Jeff Healey was a phenom. Taken from us way too soon.

What he overcame to play guitar should be an inspiration to everyone

I just makes me feel so small. I'm still pretty healthy, I can see, I can play notes and chords on a guitar but this is something way outside all that. FYI, if anything he was just as good a musician on horns and woodwinds playing jazz as on guitar playing rock/blues.


I read a lightweight bio book, Out of Darkness, that I don't recommend but there was a chapter in it about someone letting him drive their car that was pretty hilarious.


Yes, gone too soon and sadly missed.

WE THE PEOPLE

Not a big rap fan, but I relax and listen to this pretty much every day. Sick of the snowflakes, millennials, and groomers that want to destroy our country?
If so...you will enjoy this.

If not, well, let me quote The Kid himself:

F*** BIDEN, FAUCI, AND F*** YOU, TOO.

Tried to find online, but it's apparently sold out with a huge waiting list.

Bruce Springsteen actually wrote the song and wound up giving it to Patti because he thought it suited her voice. She rejigged the lyrics and made it an anthem. But I like the 10K Maniacs version also. Natalie Merchant is pretty perfect here with all the orchestral backup.

Thanks for that.

I'm sure some will cry blasphemy, but this is an amazing cover.
