One of my favorite movies of all times was the 1979 "Blues Brothers" with John Belushi, Dan Achroyd and all that great music.
Some of the sites where scenes were filmed have changed drastically since 1979 and others are now gone forever.
WAUCONDA:The state police pileup was at US-12 and Il-176. The beachfront concert announcement was at Phil's Beach on Bang's Lake at 336 Main Street (old US-12)
BUFFALO GROVE: This is where the cop car flew into the truck on the northbound on-ramp to Illinois Highway 53 at Dundee Road.
DES PLAINES: TheDes Paines Oasis Howard Johnson's on the Northwest Tollway, I-90, west of Mt. Prospect Road.
