Blues Brothers - 'Sweet Home Chicago'



Uploaded by: CappyNJ
Video Description:
A music video I made for Sweet Home Chicago by The Blues Brothers using clips from the 1980 classic musical comedy. This has always been one of my favorite films. The comedy, the music, the outlandish stunts with Aykroyd and Belushi in the middle of it all made them one of the great iconic duos. It pains me when I hear the speculation that an eventual sequel was talked about once the film became a box office hit - but then Belushi's premature death occurred. I would have loved to have seen how they would have continued the adventures of Jake and Elwood. Possibly it would have failed and had been a disappointing followup, unfortunately we'll never know. I still can't bring myself to watch Blues Brothers 2000. In my mind once Belushi died, so did the Brothers.
Check out some of the responses and other musicians versions of the tune. Good stuff

All right! Classic!! Great job Cappy in putting this vid together! I enjoy this movie more, every time I see it. Awesome soundtrack, a million hilarious sight gags and one liners and some of the best car chase footage ever shot. The crap sliding across the dash of that old Plymouth Fury (the Bluesmobile) as Elwood navigates under Chicago "El" at 120 MPH is priceless.

I can't resist:
One new prophythaltic...one soiled. New Oldsmobiles are in early this year. This is definitely Lower Wacker Drive. That Night Train is a mean wine. Leave me alone you fat penguin! I hope those cops don't have SCMODS. No man, those lights are out on purpose! I hate Illinois Nazis. I've always loved
you. It was floods, locusts, it wasn't my FAULT!

Lame, lifeless, and over-produced version of a true classic, enjoyed exclusively by clueless ignoroids with no appreciation of truely great blues music.

Hats off, Capster! It couldn't have been done better, my friend. This movie was one of those seminal events that changed EVERYTHING when it came out. Imagine the effect it had on a 13 year-old kid (myself) who was already way into music and playing the drums semi-professionally! Again, I bow to your stellar efforts!

[b]actually the bluesmobile is a 1974 dodge monaco[/b] You are correct sir, nice catch. Here I was thinking it was a Fury all these years. In looking it up I confirmed something else that I had heard years ago: that the high speed "el" scenes were, in fact, shot at 120 MPH. Whoo hoo!!

Nice vid, and great trib to ("The late great") Magic Sam who passed away on this day in 1969. Man, I love good old Blues!! It paved the way. Hey, like joaojose18 said, this was all made popular by the "Original" Mr. Robert Johnson" Think we're fibbin', check your history!
