Wow.

I'm going to now listen to "Angel Eyes" and his cover of "Stuck In The Middle With You" in honor of him.

Damn this is sad. Just the other day I heard "See The Light" on the radio for the first time in years. What a fantastic guitar player! He will be missed.

I just saw this on the news and almost started crying (didn't in fear of breaking a man law). He was such a great guitar player and singer. Way too young.

One thing to remember is that he was blessed to have major success in his lifetime.

That means alot since none of us will be here forever.

Yeah, I just heard about this on the news too.

Very sad. I'm going to miss seeing him play with the Jazz wizards in T.O.

Wow...
Saw him once in -02 or something and have one of his CDs. He sure could play guitar even if it was in the strangest way I've seen...

R.I.P. Jeff.

R.I.P. Jeff. He was an inspiration as to what you could do. He let nothing get in his way, despite his physical limitations. Jeff was a brilliant player who will be missed!
