It’s been over four decades since the release of the watershed film that spread Chicago’s soul sounds around the world when "The Blues Brothers" tore up the streets, the churches, the parks, the coffee shops, the hotels, the back alleys and most of the Windy City. The shenanigans of the orphaned Jake "Joliet" Blues (John Belushi) and Elwood Blues (Dan Aykroyd) not to mention the likes of Carrie Fisher, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Cab Calloway, Ray Charles and John Lee Hooker grew out of a Saturday Night Live sketch in 1976. Chicago, Belushi's hometown, was just the place.
