Description

Briefcase Full Of Blues is the debut album by Jake and Elwood Blues, aka The Blues Brothers. The Blues Brothers, more formally called The Blues Brothers' Show Band and Revue, began as an affectionate comedic tribute to R&B music featuring comedy actors Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi, as part of a musical sketch on Saturday Night Live.

Belushi (lead vocalist "Joliet Jake" Blues) and Aykroyd (harmonica player/backing vocalist Elwood Blues) fronted a band which included some well-known and highly respected musicians, like Steve Cropper and Donald "Duck" Dunn from Booker T. & The MGs, blues guitarist Matt "Guitar" Murphy, and a young drummer called Steve Jordan, who is now a famed producer and drummer for The Rolling Stones (!). Soon after the SNL performances, the band began to take on a life beyond television, releasing an album, Briefcase Full of Blues, and then having the Hollywood film The Blues Brothers created around its characters in 1980.

The track listing of Briefcase Full of Blues boasts infectious covers of songs by Otis Redding, Junior Wells, King Floyd, Sam & Dave, Big Joe Turner, and many more. The album reached #1 on the Billboard 200 and went double Platinum in the US.

Briefcase Full Of Blues is available on audiophile black vinyl.
