blues brothers 2000: original motion picture soundtrack [soundtrack]

Editorial Reviews

The world was hardly waiting with baited breath for a sequel to John Landis' endearingly sloppy "Blues Brothers." In fact, "Blues Brothers 2000" left nary a vapor trail in theaters on its way to unsuspecting video and cable patrons. Misguided, though lovingly executed, the cross-generation soundtrack makes as much room for Johnny Lang and John Popper as it does for Wilson Pickett, Junior Wells and Paul Butterfield. And how can you not like a record that treats Fred Steiner's classic "Perry Mason Theme" to blues treatment? --Jerry McCulley

4 out of 5 stars BluesBrothers harmony.......2006-11-11

The fineness music that I have heard in a long time. Ghost riders was a very refreshing tune done in a realistic beat. Of couse, the rest of the album brought the era of the 70's and 80's back to a tempo which made my big leg to bounce in rhythm.

5 out of 5 stars Love the Movie, Love the Soundtrack..........2006-06-26

I really enjoyed the movie, and watching it several times, I got into the music as well. I had to have the CD. Normally, I usually don't like buying soundtracks, but this one had a variety of upbeat music, reminding me what was happening throughout this movie.

5 out of 5 stars Who's Who in Blues.......2006-03-07

Man this soundtrack rocks! It's got everybody who's anybody in Blues on it.

3 out of 5 stars Good. Not Great........2006-01-29

Good collection of songs. But how, HOW could they not include the best song in the film on this album; the a capella version of "John the Revelator" that plays over the opening credits, performed by the incredible Taj Mahal, only to include the rather overdone choir version? Maybe Danny was busy counting his HOB profits. Meh.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Rock/Soul/Blues Album!.......2005-11-23

The Blues Brothers Show Band was assembled for comedic purposes, but they were also one of the greatest groups of blues musicians ever assembled. Throw in legends like BB King, Wilson Pickett, Lou Rawls, Koko Taylor, Dr. John and some new kids like Johnny Lang and Erykah Badu, and you can still make a mediocre movie - I enjoyed it but I'm just being honest - but you can't make anything less than a GREAT record. Some of the highlights include Blues Traveler's otherwise unavailable "Maybe I'm Wrong", the hilarious "Cheaper to Keep Her", and - my favorite - the huge ensemble rendition of "New Orleans". I've discovered that this record makes for some of the best road music around and is just a great listen for anyone interested in blues soul and R & B.
