 Jeff Healey CD - Get Me Some August 3, 2008
I loved Jeff Healey's music. It's so very sad that he has passed, but his music will live forever.
A forgotten gem . . . January 28, 2005

In case you didn't know, Jeff Healey's fame came with his 1988 hit single 'Angel Eyes', and you might have seen him performing AND acting one of Patrick Swayze's forgettable movies, Road House. While "Angel Eyes" was a terrific song, it only scratches the surface of Healey's extortionary talents.
Get Me Some came after a 5-year hiatus in which the band lost it's contract with it's record company, so this album was released under his own Canadian label, Forte Records. It received little promotion and sold very poorly, which is a shame because it is one remarkable record. There a several fantastic tracks, and Mr. Healey plays with emotion and skill rarely seen from today's mainstream musicians. Most tracks stand out, with only one or two not withstanding the test of time. The opener, Which One, is the heaviest, and there are several mid-rockers and ballads. When you hear Macon Georgia Blue, you'll never be the same.
If you like ANY kind of music, do yourself a favor and buy this album. You won't regret it.

i had heard that this cd was finally out, took me a little while to find it, but it was WELL WORTH THE WAIT, wow, this man and his band amazes me everytime they release new music, i've listened to them ever since i saw the movie roadhouse, 10 of the tracks on this 13 track disc are keepers, my favorites being, which one, love is the answer, my life story, i tried, holding on, and my #1 favorite macon georgia blue, i haven't heard very many healey band tunes that i didn't like, so maybe i'm a little biased, but this is hands down one of the bands BEST!!

Get Me Some is truly a great album. I must admit, it took a couple of listens to get into, but now I still can't stop listening to it. I first heard I Tried and I should have told you on the House of Blues Website and immediatelt started the hunt for this CD. All of the tracks have a great sense of feeling and soul which pours out of Jeff and band with songs such as Feel Better and I Tried. My only disappointment was that it was not released here in Australia and had to get it on import. Other than that, I hope to hear more of the same from Jeff Healey in the future.
