The blues brothers

Who else loves this movie?

This is one of the movies i remember most from my childhood. My older brother was obsessed with this movie, and of course had the vhs. I must have watched it so many times i`ve lost count...

I think this is also where i first saw Aretha Franklin. That was my favorite part of the movie, where she sings "Think", and especially when she belted out the lyrics while lifting up her skirt lol

Remember? http://www.youtube.com/wa...tvMLfCwhWM

Sure.

Now, Blues Brothers 2000 is a totally different story. With the exception of Wilson Pickett's cameo, that movie was terrible.

All time favorite music movies! Ray Charles, James Brown and Aretha at a time when they all needed the exposure for their careers.
