The Best of the Blues Brothers

Buy This Item The Best of the Blues Brothers by Image Entertainment  Available from Amazon  $12.99  on 11-15-2008     Dan Aykroyd and Elwood Blues (Dan Aykroyd) take turns telling how the Blues Brothers came to be, in a restaurant interview with Tom Davis (once upon on a time teamed with Al Franken on <I>Saturday Night Live</I>). For those who don't know, the Blues Brother are Joliet Jake Blues (John Belushi) and Elwood Blues (Dan Aykroyd), two black-clad R & B artists who made it big with recurring appearances on <I>Saturday Night Live</I> in the late 1970s, and with the number-one hit "Soul Man," and of course in the hit 1980 movie, <I>The Blues Brothers</I>. The conceit of the restaurant interview allows Aykroyd to give some much-needed background to the origins of the act he and Belushi developed. It also serves as a lead-in to live footage, the real appeal of the video, which is an anthology of <I>Saturday Night Live</I> performances (including the first one where they were dressed in Killer Bees costumes), and concert footage from the 1979 U.S. tour. A must-have for Blues Brothers fans, the DVD also includes an instructional video for those who want to learn blues harmonica. <I>--Jim Gay</I> Reader Reviews I loved this DVD. All kinds of stuff I have never seed. I loved the stories from the band. Great footage. I don't know why some people are so hard on this. I loved it and if you are a fan of the Blues Brothers you will love it too. Enjoy~I did and will again....
