It’s 2024 and still watching this awesome concert, I was 5 years old when they played this gig
And I was 12 !!!
And I was 9!
I was very old, i was 8... ans still watching this concert too ;o))))
This was 10 years before I was born but The Blues Brothers is probably my all time favorite film. I watched our VHS of it most days after school through much of middle and high school. Sometimes just fast forwarding to the next song. lol It’s 2024 and I’m just randomly browsing CZcams for old BB recordings. Thanks for posting this. What a dream this would have been to see live.
WOW! GREAT BAND! BEEN LISTENING TO THEM SINCE GRADE SCHOOL. The Blues Brothers, followed by The Dead? Long night!♥️
I was there that night. You can’t imagine how cool they were. Then the Dead came on at midnight and played till dawn. Beyond incredible.
Man I can only imagine. Musta been a complete blast.
Wow that’s awesome
Lucky man right place right time !!!
Lucky you. I was 10 months old living in Europe at that time and for the obvious reasons I could not attend. God bless blues music and its unbelievable power.

Lovely music! Thanks for the list. At the first intro there is an nice organ play starts at 30 second to 59 sec, do you know what is that called? I heard that when I was young long time ago.
@@attilaveres8986 thats part of the song
Thanks a lot.
John Belushi was 29 Dan Aykroyd was 27. I suddenly feel inadequate.
Dude, they're geniuses. I wouldn't worry about it so much...
Young but they had so much experience performing at that point: including a background in music, which many people don't realize.
Paul Shaffer said John was one of the best at timing he ever played with.. what a stud.
And Steve Jordan was maybe 20?
They were the two frontmen who assembled the best R&B band in the World! The best original players. You can’t go wrong with Steve Cropper, Duck Dunn and Matt Guitar Murphy! And it sounded incredible!
The Blues Brothers may have started as a comedy bit but the band was the real thing!
Dan aykroyd is by far the better part of the duo and it’s not even a debate in my eyes
@@JaredPrzekurat his crazy moves in Soul Man "dancing" at SNL are mythical
Add in Steve Jordan on drums and Paul Shaffer on keyboards and it’s all fire.
Paul Shaffer overplays a lot of
A lot*
God bless Bill Graham, The Grateful Dead, and The Blues Brothers!!!!!!!!
YES!
i was 23 and this never gets old
I love when he asks the the audience to sing along, he's so sincere
I love him so much
Belushi left us to early. The Blues Brothers were on the way to revive so many classics even for its time.
Steve Jordan is a beast, absolutely love his drumming on this live performance.
I think he’s touring with the Stones! since Charlie died 😢
Briefcase Full of Blues changed my life!
Mine too!
Belushi was a entertainment power house
Musician
Comedian
Actor
Their was almost nothing he couldn’t do. I can only imagine how different this world would have been if he was in Ghostbusters, instead of passing when he did
I was there. The Blues Brothers were the show.
uh
hmmm
I seem to recall there was some other band too
@@oughtssought1198 Ya! Jerry!
@@kathyhoskin8350 thx for my first good laugh of the morning
not yr comment ... that was as clear as daybreak
amen to that
It's the new YT feature, "Translate to English" that YT added
pretty cheeky on their part considering what YT's grammar+spelling
autocorrection software does to "translate" accurate grammar+spelling
into nonsense
& what's up with insisting a worldful of users all have to use English?
thanks for the laugh,
& not to be contrary or anything, but I have a leftover knee-jerk reaction
= every time somebody says "Yeah Jerry!" to me I automatically say
"Yeah Bob" or "Yeah Bobs", meaning the 2 Giants, Hunter+Dylan, whose
shoulders of lyricism Jerry stood on to offer what he did of himself (& not
the fun SF acapella group, "The Bobs" ...
if yr curious about those other Bobs you could start w/ their
acapella version of the Dead's forever non-standard 2nd set standard
"Drumz=>Space" ... tho' you may have to listen to some other titles to
find it tagged onto the end of another piece ... "Helter Skelter" might work
wish you well navigating another week of
the US Blues shootout at the fantasy factory
try not to get addicted to whichever "Mute" button you prefer? or don't try.
how's that last line for the standard price+value of free advice?
wishing you+yours well, long may you wave if you remember to keep surfing
Master bluesmen practicing their craft.

The first moment you heard BELUSHI during this performance, you knew it was ON!!!!!
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
The Blues Brothers Band is legit my go to when I want to get down!
Dance fool!
That whole band was so stacked with top of the line players, you couldn't put together a better band to go on the road with if you life depended on it. John Belushi really pulled that show out of his ass and hit the world at the right time for that music to come back, but to get the original guys that recorded many of those songs was just amazing and can never happen again. Now you need to find computer software from the 90's to put together an original old band. Those players were so good and so humble. They had to be, just look who they were on stage with, each player was about the best in the world at what they did. It was truly an all star band that played together so well. Studio players are like that.
What a tight band that was and no wonder. I wore that album out in the summer of 1979 and that music takes me back to that year every time. Love it.
The Talent in THIS BAND IS AMAZING Steve “The Colonel “ Cropper Donald “Duck” Dunn “Slappin” Steve Jordan Matt “Guitar” Murphy Alan “Mr.Fabulous “Rubin Tom “Bones “ Malone “Blue”Lou Marini Paul Schaffer Tom Scott and of course “Joliet” Jake Blues and Elwood Blues
Steve Jordan & Steve Cropper still kickin' Ace as we speak.
I agree with everything, of course, but I always thought that The Blues Brothers was more Aykroyd's brainchild? He was the one that listened to Soul, Blues, Rhythm & Blues etc and introduced it to Belushi along with the pitch, so he was also probably the one in charge of getting the cream of the crop musicians. Belushi was mostly into Heavy Rock before Aykroyd played him some of his albums. My source for this is Dan himself from the awesome first DVD release featurette.
I want that snare drum.Steve Jordan and Duck Dunn,what a rhythm section.
I think folks should send out thanks to Jeff Nemerovski that this video and audio exist. As an executive in radio advertising he apparently knew Bill Graham well. Graham had big plans for the closing as he had staged many concerts there, even more after closing Filmore West somewhere around 1971. Bill loved the room but couldn't interest the landlords in investing in myriad repairs needed to keep it open. So for a appropriate closing he pulled out his trump card which was requesting The Grateful Dead to do the honors. I'm not really clear on how The Blues Brothers became the warm-up act (others please elucidate) but, it probably at least had something to do with the mad reception they had earlier received three months earlier at The L.A. Amphitheater when they opened for Steve Martin. A better match may not have been possible as this was a kind of hugely unexpected REAL party band with the chops to get any event started in fine form. Back to Jeff Nemerovski...Bill told him he could have sold more tickets to this show than any he had ever staged which inspired Jeff. He made arrangements for the show to be broadcast (and taped) and it was shown on WQED (local PBS) and simulcast in stereo on KSAN radio. Now Bill was known to tape shows but this tipped it up a big notch as often Bill's early videos were in black and white and not always in the best sound quality. This one survives in pretty fine form for what is mostly been traded in bootlegs in the past. I know The Grateful Dead have actually done a release of this on DVD (not seen it unfortunately in it's released form) so there must be the potential for even better video and audio that this CZcams release??? Let's hope The Blues Brother's full concert resurfaces sometime in a more pristine form if possible, but this stuff rocks and I think when watching it how bad the current musical landscape has become in large part. Real blues musicians practicing their craft and knocking it out of the park with the help of two very talented men in black suits. Love it! Thanks for posting it cause it was easier than digging out my old DVD a guy from Sweden sent me years ago (kudos to nice folks like him).
Thank you for sharing this ❤💕
I was working in my computer the other day and listening to this AMAZING show with my dog by my side. 10 minutes later the two of us was dancing and jumping like crazy and singing and barking (I was singing, he was barking, just to make it clear). Thank you so much for uploading it and The Blues Brothers band for this gift
LOL
LET THE DOG SING!!!!
@@oughtssought1198 sure!
But he can’t reach the mic stand.
@@alvarobcneto ya don't hire union stage hands here???
@@oughtssought1198 sorry I’m from Brasil and didn’t get te reference
@@alvarobcneto best reply yet
thx for the much-needed laughs

What a epic opening act for the Gratful dead on New Years!!
Bellissimo!!........è come un medicinale contro il cattivo umore ma senza controindicazioni!!!!!
My favorite band of all time !!!!
I had the cassette of this concert when I was a kid. this was a world class band, all from first to last, they had a groove, a tone, a fantastic way of playing. there will never be a line-up like this again ... this band was really cool
Dear brother my sister was in the Blues Collective n I was brought up on this! The good stuff. My birthdate was 30/12/1978 and I didn't know then but I do now thanks to you I was and am the only dude who was born yesterday to something that was real n good! Thank you Sir! Never mess with the kid bartender.
not the "only", friend, and
gratefully, far from it
a toast to yr blessings
Matt Guitar Murphy killed it
This is a legit classic band by.
Thanks for the good quality post. I've had a boot DVD of this concert and I must say this version is clearer. I love this, can you imagine the audience's delight that this was legit and pumped blues.
Thanks a lot for your feedback! 🤩
The best concert
Matt "Guitar" Murphy was a fucking beast.
Awesome!
My heart skipped a beat when John did that entrance...
He’s so sexy 😭
When you see me in person, your heart will skip two beats. I'm the real deal, baby...the whole damn show!
@@ronschaffer5959 no John is perfect
Man Pigpen would’ve really loved this show. RIP
Shivers down my spine..
None of these guys died - they simply changed venues. _/|\_
Just imagine what it was like to see the Blues Brothers opening for the Dead...
Cropper and Murphy were having a blast.
This would have just been so epic to see.
WOW! As one of the worlds biggest Blues Brothers fans, i realllllly appreciate this.
Awesome how they announce the band and song they are covering. Great stuff here. If you guys like this please go listen to the originals.
long live the blues
Said it Before, I'll Say It Again:
If Jake Blues had hung around a little longer, there would have been a
"Blues Brothers Christmas Movie / Album"
And It Would Be the Greatest Christmas Music Album on This Green Earth.
Zero way belushi wouldve done something so corny, dan on the other hand would do it lmfao
@@jakemckean3069 aykroyd was in the process of writing return of the blues brothers
@@bobbyg433 any more details on that version?
@@wuffalo I only read about it in the book "wired"
@@bobbyg433 i wouldnt trust it too much then. from what i know, return of the blues brothers was just the original script for the 1st movie dan aykroyd wrote before it was revised by john landis for being too long
Great blues band that was created from Dan Akryods vision!
John’s vision
Only 10k views is a crime. First place I'm going with my new time machine
After Hendrix
Nothin will ever compare
Been listening to the Dead for a long time but first time I've seen this. Great version of "Soul Man"!
And Paul Shafer, too--oh, my!
Shot gun Blues - Matt Murphy gives us both barrels! He was on fire that night.
B movie.... My favorite
Best entrance EVER
I sat first row at the old poplar creek music theater in Chicago
Steve's having a great time on Boxcar
Wow, such a wonderful concert. I’ve had the CD for years, but seeing it on video is something else!
Belushi was feeling great the moment he stepped on stage that night!!! He had some good shit.
I had to guard Jake's beer supplies, there was lots of concern regrading 'misted' bottles...and the LSD confetti..
He was with the dead! You better be on!!
Grab some dope snd I'll pull you in
Elwood for ever.
this looks like one of the most awesome awesomest things in the world
I just found out about that video, im 1994 but i loooove the blue brothers holy shit this is awesome
Belushi,to me ,was an amazing singer
Dan Aykroyd?
Both of them were absolutely great performers. If I find a blues brothers sticker anywhere, I'm definitely putting it on my guitar.
i saw these guys at saratoga springs SPAC on july 4. a special date. this talented group had the place going crazy! it was such a thrill. dan akyroyd said while people in russia are trying to squeeze into our levi jeans the USA is the greatest country in the world! the audience went wild.i still have the ticket!
Was that the concert they recorded Made in America at?
I think one of the reasons i love the blues brothers is that this was born out of a bit but birthed honest and pure music made by the most skillfull musicians of their fields of the time, the mix of this concert is kinda rough, but what u can hear on Briefcase full of blues and made in america is honestly insane
Cool intro, shoutout to Booker T
What a fantastic performance. Thanks for sharing!

Kick ass
27:27 That's what it takes to catch ghosts, ladies and gentlemen.
Tight band
this was 2 years before the movie come out how is this possible?
The “Blues Brothers” originated on SNL in the late 70s and because Akroyd and Belushi were such huge fans of old school blues tunes they formed a touring band. The films references to “getting the band back together” are a direct connection to this touring act.
@@robertclarke8014 (It's AYKROYD) Actually it was a collection of random events that put the band on the road in a movie. First they did a show on SNL as the BB's. ( using the SNL Band with Paul, Bones, Blue Lou, and Mr. Fabulous Al Ruben) Michael Klenfner/Atlantic saw the show and offered them a single record deal. Then Steve Martin asked them to open his Amphitheater shows and they decided to record the live Atlantic /Briefcase record there. While all this was happening they assembled the "band". They all were/are top musicians long off the road) The movie was entirely different. After Belushi called Dan at his farm to tell him of all the interest in a record. Dan and I started working on a premise of taking the band on the road like all musicians. When we told Atlantic and Brillstein of the idea they bought it...we jumped in a car went to St.Louis and drove into Illinois looking for some of Jakes references, Calumet, empty malls and lift bridges. that's history now.
@@rongwynne3824 Great story! Thanks!
@@rongwynne3824 Hello Mr Gwynne from Sunny Australia, I notice you are able to name some of the band members....I wonder if you would be able to name the entire ensemble and which instrument they played...I realise this is a bit of a task, but I feel sure others would benefit from your knowledge also....and yes, like other commentors here, I did not know this happened before the movie....it is utterly fantastic.!!!!

👍👍😎
White man or Black man, it isn't the question?. Human, that is the question. I AM YOUR'S BLUES BROTHERS. ☺👍✌.
I still can't believe they made the movie into a real thing
It was the other way around. The performance on SNL where it was just them and the snl back up band, then Steve Martin inviting them to tour with them and then putting together the full band and recording Briefcase Full of Blues, then the icon SNL Soul Man performance on snl, then the release and sales of the Briefcase going double platinum, that and the success of Animal House and SNL it was a no brainer for universal to make the movie. This show was before the movie.
@@margaretblues4777 Double platinum? That's really impressive given that they're actors
@@moritzschumann7177 yup. John was in a band in hs so he had a musical background. I’d you’ve seen animal house he’s the one singing the song in the background when they get to the delta house party in the very beginning.
@@margaretblues4777 I was just joking around but that's actually cool to know, thank you hahaha
It's a good thing I don't know who the chief lighting guy was.
YOU ARE HUMAN. ☺
Thank you...when I look at my Johnson, I often confuse myself for a donkey.
