For fans of Dan Ackroyd & Jim Belushi, the boys have a new CD out, "Have Love, Will Travel". Read about it and their tour at http://www.canoe.ca/JamMusic/jul13_tour-sun.html

Sounds like a fun time.

Hey,Annie. I sort of suspected that something like that might happen when Akroyd made a guest appearence on Belushi's show,"According To Jim" late last spring. If I remember right,they ended the show with a Blues Bros. routine. I'm sure the CD may be worth buying but I never bought their songs when they were popular,so it's highly likely I wont this time either. I think the orig. movie is still funny but #2 was really disappointing. Why didn't he get Jim Belushi then? Who knows? It's been me,later! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/cool.gif
P.S.=Check out some of my topics here and on the Gord Board that have few or no replies. I really don't want to delete them for lack of intrest. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/frown.gif Thanksya!! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

Funny movie! I bought the album (vinyl) of Sam and Dave after seeing that movie. I thought the music was great.

Well...nearly four years later! :eek:

I thought I'd bring this up here,instead of in a new topic. Just taking a moment to remember John Belushi,who left us on this day (March 5th) in 1982.

Really doesn't seem possible but,it is and has been 25 years. I remember Saturday Night Live a few weeks later playing a specially made tribute/music video for him called,"Gone Like the Wind".

I can't remember if one of the ladies in the cast introduced it or was it a lady close to him at the time. I do know it was quite moving and (aside from the Lennon vigil in 1980) was the first tribute I'd seen to someone who'd passed on.

I also remember just months befoe having seen his movie,"Continental Divide". For him a pretty straight forward comedy role but it didn't do too well. Then his last movie "Neighbors" came out and flopped. I guess fans weren't ready for a "different" kind of Belushi.

We know he was a great comic talent and it always will be a sad thing,that it was wasted on excess,and that he didn't reach the true pinnacle of success that he would have.

I could even see him playing the life story of actor Edward G. Robinson,given his facial features and voice.

He would have been 57 this year. Here's to you John:

"Foooooooooood Fiiiiiiiiiiiight"!!!
