Jeff Healey, Lost Film From 1983

Показать описание

From my 16mm archives - I found this lost interview and performance by the late Jeff Healey with a group of his high school friends in a Canadian educational film about careers for kids graduating high school titled "Making It Young". The film explores many young Canadian people who are making their careers happen while they are still teenagers. I transferred this reel with my own Eiki Telecine. Enjoy!

This is definitely Jeff Healey and some pals from High School, including Jeff LeBar on bass. But this is not the band Blue Direction.

I jammed with Jeff years ago at Dominics in Grand Rapids Michigan. He had performed earlier in the evening and came to the Blues jam at Dominics after his show
He played my 75 black strat through my 63 Super Reverb while I played harp along side of him. He was a very talented musician and a super nice dude!

Just a few short years later, this young man participated in one of the greatest pieces of 80s cinema ever dedicated to celluloid, Roadhouse🙇‍♂️.

Jeff appeared in one interview segment before this in a Canadian children's tv program called Cucumber. This is very rare material, Fran!

He seems so mature for high school age. I loved him in Roadhouse. He was dripping with raw talent and he was an incredibly genuine soul. 41 is way too young. Im 42. They say only the good die young. I lost losts of friends to drugs and wrecks. He seemd like an angel on Earth. He was def 1 in a billion.

Jeff was a cute 17-year-old, but that speaking voice made him sound a decade older. His incredible talent was obvious. Rest in peace.

He was very well spoken even at that age!

Thanks Fran. Being a big Jeff Healey fan and being lucky enough to own a few records of his this was very interesting. World class player and the clip of him playing with Sass Jordon (a fantastic Canadian rock singer) and another with Stevie Ray Vaughan are both epic.

Hi Fran it is nice to see that old footage of Jeff. I got to see in concert on 3 different occasions during the 1980s Jeff and his band play in Calgary and in Toronto and the shows were top notch!!! I miss those days sometimes and thank you for upping this vid.
