30th Anniversary of the Blues Brothers-- Part 3

This June 20th marks the 30th anniversary of the opening of the Blues Brothers in screens across the US. As I said, it is my second most favorite all-time movie. It really was an ode to Chicago and Chicagoland and the music, especially soul and blues (like Tom Marker says on his WXRT Bluesbreakers Show, "Chicago, the World Capital of the Blues."


Some more questions. Answers Below:


6. Where did Jake "see the light?" This is where they got their mission from God.

7. Complete: "They're not going __ _____ __, we're on a mission from God."

8. Year and make of Elwood's car.

9. Strangely it had been used by who before Elwood got it. Bonus, what town sold it.

10. Elwood's home had a sign over the door that welcomed who?


And then, there was the great music. The soundtrack of "The Blues Brothers" is on my Ultimate CD Jukebox.
