Album Description:
Jeff Healey was arguably one of the most distinctive guitar players of our time. This is his first blues/rock release in nine years, and the last release from the late artist--a bustling, bright collection of tunes titled Mess of Blues.
Winner of the Best Blues Album Award at the Independent Music Awards.
Finalist for Rock Blues Album of the Year at the Blues Foundation's 30th Blues Music Awards.
This album was recorded in late 2007, with the musicians who regularly accompany the guitarist at Jeff Healey's Roadhousein Toronto. Two tracks were recorded at the club, and two more were cut at a concert in London.
The Jeff Healey Band was formed as a "house band" to accompany guests who sit in when Healey plays at the club that carries his name, and to meet the ongoing international demand for the artist's powerful and unusual guitar work. The guitarist called his group "the best damned bar band in Canada."

- he doesn't mess around
a superb album by a remarkable guitar player, who left us way too early.jeff takes the guitar and makes it his, and shreds through the songs with some outrageous solos, a band that is at one with him.it is a wide, wide selection of songs, most in the blues genre, but it gives him a chance to play a lot of different styles, and sing some great tunes!do yourself a favor.

- Mess of Blues
I was disappointed with this album. Sounds rushed to put something together. Not you typical Healey album
Rating: - great blues playing
the first two blues covers on this album blew me away, the rest of the album is good considering it had to have a commercial element.
Rating: - WOW!!!!!!
I love Jeff Healey! What a loss to us with his passing. This record displays the passion the man had for his music- raw and real... Thumbs up!

- Rollicking blues
This CD was a total impulse buy for me--I had never even heard of Jeff Healey before.
