Yep, everyone in the Blues Brothers’ band was a music legend (lots of studio musicians who played on some of the most classic soul records of all time), and every other musician in the movie was a blues or soul legend. And “Blue” Lou Marini, the sax player in this clip, was a member of the original SNL band.
You can still see Blue Lou play if you ever watch a Kennedy Awards show. Because of the security clearance necessary to perform at the Kennedy Awards, they use a "house band" instead of someone different every year. Blue Lou plays sax in that band. He's older of course and his hair is shorter but he still sports that big thick mustache. Look for him in some of the KA videos, they always cut to him with the camera at least once.
When Aretha talks it sounds like music, so when the song starts, it sounds like it belongs in the scene. Blue Lou is an actual saxophone player. I think his real name is Lou Marini I think?, and I remember him in 70’s house band on SNL and he’s still playing, but not sure where now?Matt guitar Murphy was a Chicago legend on many records. My favorite is his work on chuck berry’s audition for Chess.
Aretha delivered the best "Sheeyit" in history lmao
The greatest voice - she has no rivals.
She was GIFTED....saw a video of her in the church choir as a young teenager and she sounded the same way!🙏🏾QUEEN OF SOUL
I may be mistaken but I believe everyone in this movie were legit. Played their own instruments and sang their own songs. No CGI haha
That's DOPE AF!
