Editor's Note
Emerging as a household name through his work on the then-new skit comedy show SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, Dan Aykroyd has since expanded his repertoire considerably. It now includes film acting, for which he received an Academy Award nomination (DRIVING MISS DAISY), as well as music recording, entrepreneurial endeavors (his House of Blues chain is one of the largest live music promoters in the world), and writing (he received an Emmy Award for his script work on SNL). But the multitalented performer's work on SNL remains exemplary of his depthless comedic talent, remaining fresh almost three decades later. The acts he became famous for are on display in this collection, including his role as one half of the Blues Brothers, the skit upon which the classic film was based. The Coneheads, Fred Jarvin: Male Prostitute, and the "wild and crazy" Czechoslovakian Playboys, also make appearances.
