Donald "Duck" Dunn
 

Apropos nothing:- for those of us who spend most of the 80s On A Mission From God today's papers have the obituary of Donald "Duck" Dunn. He died, aged 70, in his sleep whilst on tour with Steve Cropper.

Been a while since I watched the movie. Time to introduce the kids to it.

"We had a band powerful enough to turn goat's p*ss into gasoline".

PS Besides being in "Murph and the Magitones" he was also in the Mar-keys who's hit "Last Night" was the end theme to Bottom.

Thanks for sharing. Looks like a revisit is in order. I hate Illinois Nazis

"It's 101 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes. It's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."

"I say we give the blues brothers one more chance"

"Why not? If the **** fits, wear it."

It's dark and we are :cool::cool:

Hit it!

YS:ok:

That Quote ...
 

How many miles to Chicago?

The name of the place is...Bob's Country Bunker!

We do both kinds of music: Country, and Western!

RIP Donald. :(

The Man Himself ...
 

... features in this short refresher of some of the best lines in the BB. Enjoy.

Bugger! In my humble defense, I haven't seen the movie in 10 years!

There are only three films you ever need to see, John Belushi is in two of them.

Nothing matters very much, most things don't matter at all.

Animal House and Blade Runner are the other two.

"pretty funny eating corn on the cob with no F**king teeth"

Time to watch again.

We got BOTH kinds of music, Country AND Western.

One of my favourites has always been:

Are you the Police?

No Ma'am we're musicians

Or:

Sh*t

What

Rollers

No

Yeah

Sh*t

Edited: To remove casual abuse of the apostrophe :rolleyes:

A brilliant film, obviously. First saw it in my late 20s. As a musician, he was much more than one film. He played with Booker T & the MGs and also with Otis Redding, Clapton et al. However, as part of this film he and the others (he died touring with Steve Cropper) helped expand my (and it seems many others) musical horizons; for that I'll always be grateful.

2 fried chickens and a coke

And some dry white toast...

RIP Donald.

Did we still have the visor covers when "the preacher" was the boss of 230?

"How much for the little girl?"

..........." one used prophylactic":ok:

"Who is that girl......?"

wasnt it "4 fried Chickens and a Coke".

Frank Oz and Stephen Speilberg had cameos in the film as well!
