The story of the epic friendship between John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd, the golden era of improv, and the making of a comedic film classic that helped shape our lives.  

Daniel de Visé new book is called,  "The Blues Brothers"

Daniel de Visé walks us through:
-The beginning of the Blues Brothers characters on SNL
-How Dan & John met
-The 'speakeasy' bars 
-1978 & '79 how huge Belushi was
-How Belushi almost died two different times 
-Aretha couldn't remember the lyrics to 'Think'
-Carrie Fisher (allegedly) tripping during filming

- the making of the Blues Brothers, John's drug use, and how these A-list actors & musicians  came to be in the movie.

"They're not going to catch us," Dan Aykroyd as Elwood Blues tells his brother Jake, played by John Belushi. "We're on a mission from God." So opens the movie, The Blues Brothers, which hit theatres on June 20, 1980. 

Their mission was to save a local Chicago orphanage; but Aykroyd, who conceived and wrote the film, had a greater mission: to honor the then-seemingly forgotten tradition of rhythm and blues.
