Dang, truly a great one. The Blues Brothers was my favorite movie as a kid. "Sittin On The Dock Of The Bay" is my karaoke song. 

Seemingly small things, but I'm sure that movie is part of what led me to a career in music.

RIP

The day after his 84th...that movie is in my top 5, and it's my 8yo's fave. 😪 I love Booker T and the MGs, Sam and Dave, Redding and Pickett. Basically everything he's done. RIP brother!

I love this one he wrote, and even the Irish twist in another phenomenal blues flick that covered his song.
