Music Monday: 1978’s SNL was definitely better than today

The Blues Brothers

Who growing up in the 1970s or 1980s didn’t enjoy watching Saturday Night Live, or the program that just goes by SNL these days, once in a while? It is hard not run out of space NBC Logoto list the many talented comedians and actors that rose to fame while appearing on NBC’s unique weekly late night program. Did I get old … or are the show’s better days behind it?  

I for one remember watching Jake and Elwood (John Bellucci and Dan Aykroyd) sing, dance and eventually perform in their band and act in The Blues Brothers movie. So for this week on Music Monday, here’s a segment from X.com (ignore the TikTok banner) from SNL in 1978. Great memories and a talented duo.
