Hello my friends and welcome!
We’ve got a bunch of updates to cover, so let’s get down to it shall we?
First off, we added the wonderful John Jackson cut, ‘Drinkin’ Time‘ to our Sessions archive. Jeff plays all the horns on this New Orleans-style romp and it is fantastic. We ran a piece on the making of this track a while back and you can check it out HERE.
Another in our ongoing ‘Essential Jeff Healey‘ series was added to the site recently. This time we covered the great ‘Feel This‘ album cut, 1992’s, ‘Evil and Here To Stay‘.
We added a cool pic of Jeff and pal Lita Ford at the 1st annual International Rock Awards ceremony, in New York City in 1989 to our ‘Jeff Healey Band Days: 1986-2000‘ gallery.
Several vids have been added to to the site over the past little while…
Clips of the Jeff Healey Band performing ‘Confidence Man‘ and ‘Angel Eyes‘ from their first appearance on the Arsenio Hall show back in July of 1989, were added to the Video Gallery: Performances: 1980s archive.
…and a couple of rarer clips, the first being of B.B. King, Jeff and Edoardo Bennato – performing at Pistoia Blues in Italy in 1990; the second, the Jeff Healey Band performing ‘Evil And Here To Stay‘, live in Madrid in 1993, (featuring the late Washington Savage on keys…) were both added to the Video Gallery: Performances: 1990s archive.
This next vid is a real treat. This was posted by a fan on our official Facebook page and we just had to share it with you. This fella’s says he’s been inspired by Jeff… I have to say, I’m fairly certain Jeff’d be cool with that.
Great playing, great tone… Fantastic! Enjoy.
