It isnt exactly difficult to scoff at the Blues Brothers — beginning your musical career as a sketch on Saturday Night Live is not the best way to develop artistic credibility, and while Elwood Blues wasnt too shabby a harp player, his brother, Joliet Jake, sang only marginally better than that guy who used to impersonate Joe Cocker on late-night television. But no one ever bought a Blues Brothers album expecting a life-changing musical experience — these guys were there to put on a show, and putting on a great show is just what they did. It helped that Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi obviously loved the music, and they knew how to put together a killer band (any fan with the vision to hire Steve Cropper, Donald Duck Dunn, Steve Jordan, and Matt Guitar Murphy to cover classic blues and R&B deserves credit for good taste, if nothing else). The Complete Blues Brothers pulls together material from the bands debut live album, Briefcase Full of Blues, as well as cuts from the soundtrack to The Blues Brothers movie (including contributions from Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin). Play it loud and dance a lot — John would have wanted it that way. –Mark Deming, All Music Guide
