1978: The Blue Brothers made their debut on "Saturday Night Live"


Who knew?   I loved those early seasons of Saturday Night Live.   I guess that I'm talking about 1975-80!

On this day in 1978,  The Blues Brothers made their first appearance on Saturday Night Live and the rest is history.    

They had 3 top-40 hits (“Soul Man,” “Rubber Biscuit” and “Gimme Some Lovin'”),  a #1 pop album (Briefcase Full of Blues) and a 1980 film, "The Blues Brothers".

To say the least, one of the most hilarious and funniest acts of the late 1970s.
