Eagle Rock is finally giving American Jeff Healey Band fans the 2000 international release, Get Me Some. The US release is set for March 29th.A master guitarist and vocalist, Canadian-born singer-songwriter Jeff Healey formed his band in 1985, with drummer Tom Stephen and bassist Joe Rockman. Known for playing the guitar flat on his lap, Healey perfected a unique, vibrato-infused resonance that solidified the band's signature sound. The trio's blend of jazz, rock, and blues scored them platinum sales, and hit singles like "Angel Eyes."
Get Me Some continues to thrive in this versatile style, packed with 13 tracks of electrified boogie and blues-rock. The dynamic quality of these musicians is evident on tracks like "Which One," "My Life Story," and "Rachel's Song." Topped with supreme fret work, stylistic solos, and memorable hooks, Get Me Some proves it was definitely worth the 10-year wait for American fans.
A multi-faceted musician, who also pursued old-time jazz and played clarinet and trumpet, Healey passed away in 2008, at the age of 41.
