CLIP DESCRIPTION:
The Blues Brothers stop at Ray's Music shop to find some quality instruments and get a toe-tapping demo from the owner (Ray Charles).
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Expanding on their Saturday Night Live characters, John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd star as Jake and Elwood Blues, two white boys with black soul. Sporting cool shades and look-alike suits, Jake and Elwood are dispatched on a "mission from God" by their former teacher, Sister Mary Stigmata (Kathleen Freeman). Said mission is to raise $5000 to save an orphanage. In the course of their zany adventures, the Blues Brothers run afoul of neo-Nazi Henry Gibson, perform the theme from Rawhide before the most unruly bar crowd in written history, and lay waste to hundreds of cars on the streets and freeways of Chicago. In case you aren't swept up in the infectuous nuttiness of the brothers Blue, you might have fun spotting film's legion of guest stars, including James Brown, Cab Calloway, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, John Candy, Carrie Fisher, Steve Lawrence, Twiggy, Paul Reubens (aka Pee-Wee Herman), Frank Oz, and Steven Spielberg.

Even Ray Charles couldn’t see how iconic this scene would become
I see what you did there. 😂
Dark humor
hihi
You “even” as if he set a standard. Ray couldn’t see anything. I understand the joke, but it doesn’t really work
@@kyleneopperman6186 You must be a riot at parties haha
the saddest thing is he never saw the movie
He plays the piano like he was on a mission from god
Oh, I see what you did there.
Cause he was
Antek Moniek ;)
He was on the mission of god!
johanlarsmalm hehehehe
I've watched this scene hundreds of times. Still never fails to put a smile on my face.
Just did the same
same here! Plus, Chicagoans can dance!
Makes me shake a tail feather
Oh, yeah.
YUP!!!
Lets take a minute to recognize the unsung hero of this song. The bass player.
Donald 'Duck' Dunn was an OG. He played with Sam & Dave, Otis Redding, Booker T. and even Elvis. He's played with pretty much anyone who's anyone in the 60s-70s blues scene. What a legend! Love this clip with him!
Mf'n Donald "Duck" Dunn... One of the coldest to ever play the 4 string Ax...
definitely not unsung
The Duck
WAS THAT DONALD DUCK DUNN, MY IDOL?????????????????????????
37 yrs later and nothing else comes close to these geniuses.
+1400deadwood A perfect example of when pearls are cast before swine.
+1400deadwood What I mean is, that these guys were pearls. The alleged pool of talent we have today does not compare one bit. I would refer to them as the swine.
I AGREE
+1400deadwood he means that no music today is better than this,fact which is true
so tru
Best part of that scene is when Ray takes a shot at a kid trying to steal a guitar.
Blind and shooting baby
That kid grew up to be the lead dude from tone toni tony
@@alvinmays8247 are you shittin me?
bad it wasn't included in this video
Now go on, git!
At 1:13, the look on Dan Aykroyd’s face, that smile. Nothing but pure happiness, dancing with his best friend, surrounded by talented musicians, in a film he created. All at the age of 28. That’s what we all try and aim for in life. ‘That smile’
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
i hear yeah!!
Yeah, Dancing with Ray Charles! That would be plenty!
how he's a certified nut case
@@vhulheim I thought that that was John Belushi’s deal, not Akroyd’s.
Never noticed this before but at 0:18 after Elwood rips out the fabric Jake notices that the piano's wires are cut. Ray's magic is powering the thing!
I believe that Jake notices the cable is not plugged in to any speaker. Same result - the electric piano shouldn't be able to make any noise without going through a speaker via the quarter-inch cable, which isn't plugged in.
Lol I always thought it was just some loose wires sticking out of the side of the piano, but I like your interpretation better!
Its a Fender-Rhodes Mk1 Suitcase piano, it will make sound without being plugged into anything, just pretty quiet and unlikely to be heard over other instruments (and, in fact, you pretty much can't hear it anymore once the rest of the band starts playing and Ray starts singing)
Man, why can't real life be like this? Just going about your business on a typical day, and a hot song echos through the air, and everyone just starts dancing.
Move next to a bar or music store. Happens all the time.
The original flash mob
Hey, it's possible. On a similar subject, IIRC, there's a town in Italy where opera singers will occasionally just break out in song during a Christian Parade. Everyone listening then just stays quiet, and listens.
Happens where I work.
...on a hot Shytown humid concrete late summer noon ...whoa funky.😃😎
The whole point behind Blues Brothers on SNL was that they were so stuck in the past and convinced that the blues was the only true music. Forty plus years later, this video is still timeless - that speaks volumes.
And they were right!
Blues is the only true music!! Heh....the birthplace of rock n' roll.
Well then there was both kinds of music too.
@@LLiivveeeevviiLL "Country AND Western!" 😂
I love the shot of the keys reflected in Ray’s glasses.
It makes it as if he's "seeing" the keys in his head.
Iconic as hell. RIP to the legend Ray Charles
About :41
I always loved that shot. It was so cool at the time😊
Blues Brother's was the last and greatest musical, dance comedy ever made!!!!!
No wonder everyone was so skinny back then, everyone would just randomly break out into choreographed dances.
The original flash mobs
That, and the coke.
Bring back random choreographed dancing
No, your just fat
The food was healthier back then.
I remember one time my dad called me out in the living room and this scene was on TV. He only did probably because I loved Ray Charles’ music. That’s where I first heard of The Blues Brothers. Months later, the Minnie the Moocher scene was enough to convince me to watch the whole movie. I did and I loved it. Now, it’s my favorite movie of all time.
Love minnie the moocher!
blues brothers is love of my life! :)
Your Dad was a real one.
Based dad
YES! THEY SPENT $27.5MIL IN 1980 ON THIS MOVIE AND TRIPLED THAT IN REVENUE! WHEN A MOVIE IS AS GOOD AS THIS ONE...ITS JUST GOOD!
0:40 The keyboard on the sunglasses of a blind music legend: BEST FRAME IN THE HISTORY OF CINEMA
Every song in the Blues Brothers is a bad mood buster. If someone is coding on the operating table, the surgeon needs to pop some headphones on the patient and start bumping any song from this movie.
This is a forever flick. For the old folks out there, make sure the kids have seen the Blues Brothers to keep it going.
I love how the little kids are dancing just as hard as the adults lol
Ray Charles can make any piano work
Edit: OMG I've never gotten so many likes for a comment in my life, thanks so much everyone, you're all very kind.
Seth Sullivan Yep, every time I see the guy say "$2000 for this piece of shit, there's no action left in this piano." I always think "You just gave the master a challenge."
Super Sullivan mono o
ah i dont think theres anything wrong with the action on this keyboard
so could Jerry Lee. and lil Richard.
It doesn't matter if it's missing keys or it's not plugged in, any keyboard or piano will sound good when Ray Charles plays it
Not only a fantastic song, but once of the best filmed dance routines ever. I particularly love the elderly man who appears briefly at 2:08.
Pure and timeless joy. Almost moving.
I just noticed him!
Your comment made it way better
The guy with the white hair right
@@MarcG7424yes
The “failed” movie that grossed 112 million in early 1980s dollars at the box office!
Middle-aged male reviewers who never listened to blues or rock n roll, hated this film they panned it! The crowds that saw it loved it. It was too long. The car crashes were excessive. The premise didn’t make sense, convents do not pay property tax! It should have been advertised as a movie musical, that’s what it was! A modern day movie musical! Thin on plot. Big on music!
This movie made millions on cable, vhs, and screens throughout the world from opening day to today! It’s widely considered a classic! We are so glad that we have these high quality filmed song of these classic artists. The Blues Brothers are considered a phenomenon.
It’s not just the money that the franchise makes. It’s the music. It continues to be enjoyed. The film also is a tribute to classic recording artists and the joy we baby boomers received listening to the radio, records, and tv appearances of a long number of them! But you have to be one of us to have experienced that.
There is something simplistic about the pure innocence of how this storyline progressed from the absurdity to the absolute bizarre. It was defining a new way of taking the Mickey out of something but at the same time celebrating it, so much fun in the making of it.
wtffff? i didn't know critics were bad about it, and i almost can't believe it... i have the film poster right in front of me (well a bit on the left, in litteral front i have an even bigger poster of inglourious basterds, brad pitt is almost full size lol) because i love this movie sooooo much, can't believe critics said bad things about it...
Opera, from the industrial stax till the closing credits!
The best thing about this video is that it shows all races, young and old, dancing in the streets !
So true.. how the country would be without conservatives!
@@dougs7367 More like that's how it would be without any politicians at all.
I was about to type the exact same thing, and decided you already said it best :-)
@@dougs7367 It's Liberal policies that cause black communities to collapse due to unemployment, welfare dependency, high housing costs, and fatherlessness all of which prevent blacks from reaching that of whites, asians and jews
This scene that music not religion truly brings people of all age and race together
I swear, this movie is a love letter to all the great R&B of the 60s and 70s.
1950 - 1978
@@JustinTimeForParties Take it back to the 30's. That's Cab Calloway bringing the jive with Minnie the Moocher!
Its apparently a love letter to the blues while also being a joke about how these 2 cheesy white guys are calling themselves the "blues brothers" and demand to be taken seriously lol
@@boppob1343 seeing how this movie helped those legends careers and how, after 40 years, people are still coming back to these videos and listening to their music, I would say they succeeded in that whole "being taken seriously" thing. Even moreso if you consider they were only active for like 5 years, not a lot of bands have had that impact
THIS movie is a LOVE LETTER TO ALL BLACK MUSIC...it tells the story of all of it...IN ORDER!! 👏🏾👏🏾🥰🥰
The song just makes you happy
Dan Aykroyd has lived 10 lifetimes. What a great dude.
It's incredible. He's blind and did all this. He was a gift from God....
it's weird to think how he never saw any of the dances the song is referencing
Stevie Wonder.
God made him blind bud gave him extraordinary talent instead.
a gift from God to complement the ultimate mission from God
@@RubberStig That's Ray Charles
The only live action musical movie I like.
Reefer madness the movie musical is pretty damn funny
I was just saying this. I only like this and Meatloaf's scene in Rocky Horror Picture Show.
You should branch out more because you’re missing out on some pretty good ones
Have you tried "Grease?" That's a pretty good film.
I thought bohemian rhapsody and Rocketman were good
12 year old clip and getting comments in 2024!! As it should be!
RIP Ray Charles (September 23, 1930 - June 10, 2004), aged 73
And
RIP John Belushi (January 24, 1949 - March 5, 1982), aged 33
You both will always be remembered as legends.
40 years since the movie was released and this song is STILL one of the best. It will always be a classic. It will always be timeless.
I agree.
The location shots for this scene were filmed at 47th Street and Prairie Ave. The building that housed Ray's Music Exchange is still standing, and currently is a pawn shop. The mural is still on the wall as well, albeit faded after nearly four decades.
all true....i live not far from there....
PL phunkwephunk someone should colour it in and redo it.
@@matthewthorpe9641 that would be AWESOME.....then we should show up and do a reenactment of this famous scene...lol
I hope they give it historical designation status -- that would be awesome.
@@plmitch 40th Anniversary this year! Someone should plan a whole collection of re-enactments, including this one!
The guy on the Tambourine has made my day, I know its stupid but in Quarantine it's the little things that get you by.
one of the Best Film's ever MADE .
yes,
RIP John Belushi and Ray Charles!
Ruben Clemente Don't forget about Cab Calloway.
Ruben Clemente and James Avery hes outside dancing. Rip uncle Phil
Ruben Clemente or Mr Fabulous
We brits do the best bands but our American cousins rule the roost in soul.
James Belushi!!!
Whenever he plays the opening notes, I feel ALIVE
So do I. There’s only a moment between the phrases that make up the intro but they hang there. It’s the same way I feel when I hear the into to ABC by the Jackson 5, I want to dance. But I feel truly alive when he almost yells out those first words. The song is a similar sentiment to Aretha’s ‘Think’ but less angry and more pleading and desperate for expression. The reflection of the keys in his sunglasses makes him look like the coolest man alive.
Listened to this over and over again for the pure joy of it. Donald "Duck" Dunn is getting so much work done on the bass, you don't even realize it until you listen and realize that Dunn starts the party and doesn't stop -- truly incredible!
I can listen to Ducks bass line all day. Just holds the whole song together.
@@Twinsdad6 It really makes the song.
The bass line of donald is a jam pure jam
Insane rhythm section plus those horns....what a band!
He's got a sound powerful enough to goat piss into gasoline!
Doesn't get any better than that! So many classic music scenes from this movie. Love it!
Donald "Duck" Dunn ruling the low tones in this one; great bass line!
I saw him play, here in London, Earl's Court. Eric Clapton, "Behind The Sun" tour. I am humble and say truth
It’s too much fun. It’s one of the first things I ever taught myself to play.
I love him so much. Ugh that bass
bass lines are great in the whole soundtrack
Let me Say, um Steely Dan?
Chicago is the only city where random strangers can bust out into perfectly synchronised dancing. Gotta love it.
Never getting tired.of watching this masterpiece
You still try to dance to this scene?
Me: To this day….TO THIS DAY!!
This was one of my Dad’s favorite movies. A Cult classic that’ll never die.
This is one of my Mom's favorite movies. Indeed, a cult classic
It will die because they won’t show it anymore. Today’s woke culture of recreational outrage and accusing every one of cultural appropriation cannot allow this gem of musical artistic beauty show everyone the truth. That music is for everyone.
We once had a discussion in college about the movie, and decided a copy of The Blues Brothers should be stored in a time capsule under "Comedy", because it contains nearly every form of comedy there is from subtle and nuanced to outright slapstick, and everything in between.
YES! THEY SPENT $27.5MIL IN 1980 ON THIS MOVIE AND TRIPLED THAT IN REVENUE! WHEN A MOVIE IS AS GOOD AS THIS ONE...ITS JUST GOOD!
@@geoffwilliams4478 YES! THEY SPENT $27.5MIL IN 1980 ON THIS MOVIE AND TRIPLED THAT IN REVENUE! WHEN A MOVIE IS AS GOOD AS THIS ONE...ITS JUST GOOD!
1:08 how could he pulled off looking that cool while playing the tambourine, I can't even
Do yourself a favour, search youtube for "Herlin Riley tambourine".
Man, what an iconic shot of Ray with the piano keys reflected in his glasses. Such a great scene from such a great movie!
This was such a great movie with so many immensely talented artists. RIP John Belushi... you were one of a kind!
We all need to get back to being like this!!
The bird guy always makes me laugh
Luke Groundflyer
eyes bulging!!!
A childhood memory that stuck 😎❤️I love blues
Greatest musical of all time!
Who could dislike this? The late great Ray Charles.
That bass line is phenomenal. RIP Donald "Duck" Dunn
Duck would have been 76 today.,
Duck was a maestro.
RIP D.d. Dunn
Michael K I agree this is one of the best bass lines I heard in a song another that I definitely feel is a good Baseline in a song is The Pointer Sisters song the pinball song counting song
Bassists never get the credit they deserve
The guy with red pants, and tambourine, is giving me life.
"Naturally. And as usual, I have to take an IOU." 🤣🤣🤣
Damn almost 40 years later and I’m only 20 but damn I’m addicted.
One of the greatest scenes in the history of film.
Theres something about music and dancing, watching people all over the world doing it together makes me feel good!
My favorite part of the whole movie...so joyous. Love seeing all the dances, the little kids, everything.
YES!!!!
Man. That bass line is killer. And he plays it dancing its difficult enough just sitting
Love it when you see the key's reflect off of his shades "legendary"😎
Dude with the tambourine got some killer moves
Yes, Murph was getting it!
This film was a masterpiece with an incredible cast of legendary musicians
Between this film and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" I've come to one conclusion:
The city of Chicago will break out into random song and dance at the drop of a hat.
InflatablePlane lol. I think this sequence was actually fimed in L.A
InflatablePlane: great comment!!! Leave me w/ my illusons. Growing up we woud say "lets go to Chicago where even the cops drive mustangs."
If only
The 80s was a better time
Blues brothers was filmed in 1980
That bass is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.
The amount of fun the dancers are having warms my heart
There's a reason this clip has 27 million views. This is a solid gold classic and timeless
No CGI. No superheroes. No explosions. No fighting. Just great writing and actors.
YES! THEY SPENT $27.5MIL IN 1980 ON THIS MOVIE AND TRIPLED THAT IN REVENUE! WHEN A MOVIE IS AS GOOD AS THIS ONE...ITS JUST GOOD!
When Ray Charles starts playing and singing your about to get schooled! He was a Master of R&B and even put out a great Country Album in his style. I love the Blues Brothers movie!
Can you just image the minute Ray hit that key board the magic put a spell on the whole city How cool is that......🤭😆 LOL
Ah Chicago, the city where spontaneous singing and dancing can break out at anytime thanks to this movie and Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Ray Charles is just so amazing in every way. And I say is, not was, because legends never die
HEROES NEVER DIE
I don't think anyone can sit still when listening to this, Best song of the whole movie
They did a pretty snappy...and long...version of Rawhide!
To me its one of the most "american" movies. Great music, fun, dancing, roadmovie: it has it all! Love and peace from germany
Very! Especially here in Chicago. Its not s real concert until they play "Sweet Home Chicago" lol
American Humor.
The guy in the blue striped shirt doing the bird at 1:43 has always made me laugh. I remember when I first saw this movie as a little kid I laugh. And 40 years later, his facial expression still makes me smile and chuckle.
I like the guy behind him in the white shirt, he ain't doin' the dance but he's enjoying himself.
I believe that's Choreographer Carlton Johnson. Re watch his entrance at :28!
He looks like a bird doing it too 🤣🤣🤣
I don't even need to look... I know EXACTLY who you're talking about.
"We're on a mission from god"
That bass line is phenomenal. RIP Donald "Duck" Dunn
Jajajjaja
He was the backbone of a great rhythm and blues band.
no movie ever comes close to this
its just fun. so fun
Everyone coming together to dance and have a good time. You love to see it!!! 💃🏾🕺🏽💃🏻🕺🏼🕺🏾💃🏽
That song is two and half minutes of pure joy.
Murphy's tambo work is absolutely mesmeric!
Murph, not Murphy. Blood predictive text.
Donald "Duck" Dunn! What an incredible bass player! Who else could play the bass like that & still look cool smoking a pipe!
Long live The Duck!
Bill Otten
Any bass player
Thundercat?
May he rest in peace and live ever on in his great music.
He's all, "Yup, another day at the plant, best job ever."
Nearly 45 yrs old - amazing
That movie scene is epic. One of my favorites of all time.
Ray Charles is a God.
And that BAND easily one of the hottest bands of the period.
That band was MONSTER.
The blues Brother..Forever rip Ray John B.
Man this my all time favorite movie. I love when the guy FLIPPED into the line & started gettin it. Favorite scene for sure!
This movie was star-struck phenomenon. It's just something else despite it being musical-comedy. You just come back to it and it never fails to entertain, even if you watched it 100 times already.
Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Cab Calloway, Duck Dunn, Carrie Fisher, John Belushi R.I.P. :(
John Candy
This movie never gets old
Champ Beats to my parents
it already is, and they were born in the 60's(unfortunately in Sweden)
Charlotte92 Bullshit my Dad was born '56 and he says it never gets old!
....Simply gets better with age.
I know. Must've watched it at least 8 times, probably more!!
Ariellyn watched it ~30 times LOL I love this movie
My favorite movie ever. I was 12 when it came out. Watched it twice, back to back, in the movie theater, literally jumping up and down during "Everybody Needs Somebody to Love". I've listened to blues and R&B ever since because of this movie.
YES! THEY SPENT $27.5MIL IN 1980 ON THIS MOVIE AND TRIPLED THAT IN REVENUE! WHEN A MOVIE IS AS GOOD AS THIS ONE...ITS JUST GOOD!
AWESOME!!! I wish I coulda seen it in theaters. I was born in 92 and lose my mind everytime I watch it!
Dan Aykroyd is the single most coolest guy on the planet.
The dances sequences in this movie are awesome
How can this not get you laughing, smiling, singing and moving.
Just lost my grandma, this is one of her favorite songs
Makes me think of my dad.
Born 10-11-1947 passed 08-19-18
I loved watching this movie with him when I was little.
So we not gon talk about the cat in the red pants with the tambourine getting DOWN😂😂😂😂😂
When Ray sings, everyone dances.
yup was a great piece he did but even more reverent was when he came out nearly two months after 9/11 happened and performed a reverent edition of America The Beautiful during Game 2 in da 2001 World Series, many faces had smiles but in many others there were emotional tears.
This has got to be one of my favourite movies.
Michelangelo D'Imperio mine too and I'm only 37
They all look so happy. My goal in life is to achieve this. To be this happy and to make others this happy.
This a truth of a legend of a movie. This something you can't get no more!
I never get bored of this movie. such great tunes in it.
Amen brother..Amen!!
Glenn Wilkinson what`s
Aahh the memories!! I used to play this movie over and over (until my parents went crazy) when I was a kid. I used to loved it so much. Music moves me.
Blues brothers forever
Hadih😲 geezes--) Ray Charles was just a fantastic musician ❤🖖
