The Blues Brothers

The Blue Brothers are blues and soul revivalists started as a Saturday Night Live sketch in 1978 by Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi. Four hit singles. The sketch was such a success it spawned a film. The band continued after Belushi's death in 1982, furthering their "mission from God". They were a part of the 1997 Super Bowl Halftime Show. The success of the film spawned the blue-eyed soul revival of the eighties, with artists like Huey Lewis and the News and Robert Palmer becoming popular.
