No, he had his own band. Played slide-guitar on his knees. Great guy!

He was a pretty "blinding" guitarist (Bad taste ftw), nah shame really i guess.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

Jeff Healey rocked.

Besides, he was in Roadhouse. Therefore he doubly rocks.

(is doubly a word?)
