The Blues Brothers were a skit that grew into a real band that recorded two albums and did do a concert tour in that late ‘70’s ! Real talent !

They did far more than that. They had an amazing hit movie.

I still ask people in the car with me when we pass the police if they have SCMODS. So many great quotable lines. "You want I should wash the dead bugs off your windshield?" Elwood: "Its 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, its dark and we're wearing sunglasses." Jake: "Hit it."🤣 This was back when we could make jokes and laugh about things without fear of offending and getting cancelled. Truly a better world.

I remember this like it was yesterday. Everyone was surprised by Dan Akroyd and John Belushi. The emcee was a regular on Saturday Night Live Garrett Morris who played in some great movies as well

[@JimmyJamJack]

SNL has always had the same hit/miss ratio. People who say "it's just not funny anymore" need to pick a random episode from their "glory years" and watch it all the way through and see. The only thing is, being almost 50 years old now, they have to be careful not to repeat bits. Oh, and the fact that musical guests suck now isn't SNL's fault (the music greats die)

[@davemcbroom695]

John Belushi was the only one to be in a #1 movie, Be on the #1 TV series, and have a #1 song ALL AT THE SAME TIME! What a loss.

[@scottlaplantelaplante990]

[@bobschenkel7921]

Joliet Jake (John Belushi) and Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) Blues were legit. It helped that they had a great backing band including : Steve Cropper-Guitar, Donald "Duck" Dunn-Bass, Matt "Guitar" Murphy-Guitar, Lou Marini, Tom Malone, Tom Scott and Alan Rubin on Horns, and Paul Schaeffer-Keyboards. Mr. Schaeffer also went on to lead the band on David Letterman's Late Night show. There is a very good movie called "The Blues Brothers" and a not so great one called "Blues Brothers 2000". Watch the first one, and look for a bunch of great cameos from some amazing singers, don't want to give it all away but they are awesome.

That movie gave Aretha Franklin's and Ray Charles' careers a new life.

[@billbitterman9487]

The band are legendary sessions players from Memphis. The guitarist is Steve Cropper who is a great guitarist. The Blues Brothers movie is a great comedy with people like Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Ray Charles, and more. I strongly recommend viewing. The scene from the country/western bar is classic

[@vapoet]

Steve Cropper and Donald "DucK" Dunn were part ofd Booker T. and trhe MGs, the house band for Stax Records. Much of the music the Blues Brothers played came straight from Stax, with Steve and Donald playing behined them. Stax was the main competitor to Motown in the 1960s. Right in this song, they are playing the same song they played for Sam & Dave on the original recording.

[@tombeyerlein3813]

The Blues Brothers was Belushi and Ackroyd's homage to the great soul music of the '60s. This tune was a huge 1967 hit for Sam (Moore) and Dave (Prater) on the Memphis-based Stax Records label. Many of the musicians here were on the original soul hits, including guitarist Steve Cropper and bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn. You guys owe it to yourselves to dig deeper into the Stax catalogue. Timeless, classic soul at its very best!

[@victorsixtythree]

Cropper and Dunn were members of Booker T. and the M.G.'s, the house band for Stax Records out of Memphis. They backed singers like Otis Redding and Wilson Picket, among others. I believe both are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

The original SNL cast, pre-1980 was the best. It was always funny and the best guest stars and musical groups. This is how the concept of the Blue Brothers started out. They were only supposed to perform a couple of times on the show, but it was such a hit, they went on to do some albums and the "Blues Brothers" movie, which if you haven't seen, you really must. There was a second movie "Blues Brothers 200", which was lousy, but great soundtrack.

Blues Brothers was a famous skit from the glory days of SNL. They made a movie out of it that is just insane, involving dozens of musical superstars, 60 police cars, the national guard, the entire fire department of Chicago, and Carrie Fischer wielding a rocket launcher. There were dozens of great repeating skits from this era, including Weekend Update with Rosanne Rossana Danna, Emily Litella who always called Chevy Chase "Cheddar Cheese," Point Counterpoint, Mr. Bill, Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood, the Killer Bees, Samurai Laundry and the Olympia Restaurant. The best one I ever saw was Gilda Radner doing a musical spoof of Mick Jagger, but I can't find it anywhere.

[@jvsmith7888]

The Blues Brothers were originally John Belushi and Dan Akroyd with the classic "Memphis Group" from Stax/Volt backing them up. This clip was their debut to the world. After this skit and performance, they were signed to Atlantic Records. They recorded their first album, which was mainly covers of classic blues, R&B, and Soul songs, went on tour, and soon made the first Blues Brothers movie. Belushi and Akroyd left Saturday Night Live shortly after the Blues Brothers took off.
