Guitarist Jeff Healey, famed for his ballad Angel Eyes, died yesterday of cancer. Healey was 44 years old.
Healey was born blind due to a rare form of cancer which required surgical removal of his eyes. He learned to play guitar at age 3 and developed a unique style of playing the instrument while it rested on his lap.
His death comes one month prior to the release of his latest album, Mess of Blues.
