I’m a huge fan of The Blues Brothers. It’s one of those movies I’ve watched over and over, and I consider a total “remote dropper," as in, I drop the remote if I see that it’s on and watch ‘til the end. I love the humor, the characters, the amazing car chases, and above all, I love the music performances. With legends like James Brown, Ray Charles, John Lee Hooker, Cab Calloway, and, of course, the legendary Blues Brothers band, you really can’t go wrong. That’s what has always made the scene in the diner with Aretha Franklin so strange. In my head, I’ve always blamed the filmmakers, but it turns out it was Franklin’s fault that the audio track feels off.
