That performance by John Belushi was one of the finest impressions of one person by another person I have ever seen.

You are correct sir!

Was it live or was it Memorex?”

I saw Belushi do the impersonation live during National Lampoon's "Lemmings" show in 1974.

Belushi's number was titled "Lonely at the Bottom of the Barrel." Sample lyric: "I was making musical history, now I'm working for Muscular Dystrophy."

Chevy Chase was also in the cast.

Well said.. Belushi was pure talent... Bolted (went to seed) and blew away in the wind early.

it was spot on perfect to the point where if he’d applied himself, he could have influenced music every bit as much. Hell, the Blues Brothers band took nominal blues tunes and elevated them - they were tight

I laughed and laughed over that one. It’s hilarious.
