And to think this started as a skit on Saturday Night Live in 1978, and as for the backing band.... every single one of them is an absolute legend

[@kariebossa4851]

Exactly. Matt "Guitar" Murphy, Donald "Duck" Dunn, Blue Lou Marini, Steve Cropper, Alan Rubin. Legends of music.

As for the bagpipes, I'm sure there is, but I only played with a law enforcement pipe and drum band ( I'm no where good enough to solo it ).

You have to realise, he wasnt a huge director then. he was well known, but wasnt major until the 80's

[@jasynwiener]

@@23bobjr Sorry, but I disagree. Reason #1: Jaws (1975) opened with a record box office weekend, topped $100m in the first 60 days, and passed The Godfather as the highest grossing US film in 78 days; 3 Academy Awards. Jaws held the top spot until Star Wars in 1977. Reason #2: Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), most successful film for Columbia Pictures as of that time; 2 Academy Awards. He was quite well known and well respected in 1980. More than enough so to make the appearance awesome and special.

That said, when Nathaniel Rateliff released his first single "S.O.B. (Gimme a Drink)" in 2015, the video for the song was an homage to this scene. Rateliff and his crew sound like a resurrected Blues Brothers to begin with, so it's pitch perfect.
