The Blues Brothers: Private
by Judith Jacklin & Tino Insana (Perigee Books, 1980)
A movie tie-in out of left field, revealing Jake and Elwood’s backstory by way of found (often hand-scrawled) documents and archival photos—the latter used sparingly but adding value to a publication that seemingly anticipated the film’s cult status. For devotees only.
The Soul Men Blues Brothers Tribute
Performance at the Grandview Hotel, Cleveland, 15 November 2015
Strong vocals (both male and female); excellent musicianship; joyful, energetic, iconic: the Soul Men Blues Brothers Tribute brings real justice to our favourite musical recidivists, unlocking the briefcase full of [mostly rhythm and] blues and delving deep into Jake and Elwood’s repertoire.
