Gotta Love the sound of the old Hammond B-3!!!

[Taker1116]

Now if only it was in both my ears instead of just the right.

[WampusGK]

This is more like Green Onions/Soul Finger/Funky Broadway. Good stuff!

[lagringita2005]

something so frikin sexy about this music!!

[Darrylshaw]

Actually because he wanted to work on a Gilda Radner project too at the time, Belushi kicked him off the band...their loss.

[deezvids]

Jeez! Didn't Paul Shaffer EVER have hair? xD

GREAT tunes from a sweet era... :)

[liverpoolkrew]

einfach nur hamma und unglaublich geil dieses Lied....nich beschreibbar xD

[bradbass]

Paul's putting that B3 work...

[reichmarshall]

Steve Cropper and Duck Dunn were original members of the MG's!

[Sully192837465]

Woh, did I see Paul Shaffer from Letterman? lol I knew I knew him from somewhere!

[fuckMandatorySignup]

remember, the Blues Brothers originated on Saturday Night Live - where Paul Shaffer was the keyboardist and unofficial band leader (there was a formal band director). Shaffer was involved with other projects when they assembled the band for the movie, but he has played with them since.

[BugsBunny198311]

Paul Shaffer was not the band leader, don't lie, Paul Shaffer was the bouncer boy when Green Onion came out

[bloodangel160]

Dan Aykroyd "It's soul finger but the bar-kays"

Chevy Chase "they must be having trouble getting a gig"

- Spies Like Us

[frk17]

Im missing Booker T :( I shook his hands a few weeks ago :D

[redSuikoden]

Found you LOL! :P

Yip, I got Donalds autograph under the pickup cover of my Jazz Bass.

He bent over to grab a Blues Brothers Pamphlet, but when I handed him over my bass part he immediately went for that one first.

[EllieExAir44]

[surfocaster]

Hell yes you have the world's best band behind you!

[rocker3444]

We do this song for pep band it's amazingly fun to play

[compienz]

Hard to believe that Paul Shaffer was ever cool? Or was he?

Did they ever do Time is Tight?

[wysiwyg248]

compienz,

He was the original keyboard player on the Blues Brothers, but I think because he was signed with CBS, he was not allowed in the movie.

[f67333x]

You have to understand this, Steve "The Colonel" Cropper and Donald "Duck" Dunn were 2/3 of the group know as Booker T & The MG's (Memphis Group). They did "Green Onions". They were also the studio band for Stax Records. They played behind Sam & Dave. During "Soul Man" (Sam & Dave OR The Blues Brothers) you hear "Play it Steve", that's Steve Cropper.

[Nickovitch2370]

Dude, Cropper and Dunn were 2/4 of Booker T. & The MG's.

[bnapoleonc123]

also backed the late great Albert King.

[flyboy4361x]

Not to mention Willie Hall also played drums for The Bar-Kays, who originally did Soul Finger.

[carguymiami]

Paul Schaffer did a great "Don Kirschner" when he had hair..He's very talented for a Canadian!It's rainy men catchy.However he gets a little finger frozen on some bars,maybe it's the CANADIAN SNOW that stiffens the fingers..

[xpower666]
