How many years has it been since there was a blind or deaf musician on top charts? :)
A deaf musician? I can think of several blind musicians off the top of my head, but barring Beethoven (and only at the end of his life) I can think of no deaf ones, ever. Seems entirely contradictory, no?

This is Ebert's review of Touch the Sound, which is a documentary about a deaf percussionist.
