Vocals Confusion

[Ankles]

In 1988 the Blues Brothers Band started performing again.
When Dan Aykroyd couldn't join the band, a guy called Larry Thursten did the vocals.
A few years later, another singer took his place, Tommy McDonnell. He was also in Blues Brothers 2000.
And most recently, there is Rob Paparozzi, the current lead singer in the Blues Brothers.
Since 1988, the band has been joined by Eddie Floyd, who can also be seen in Blues Brothers 2000 (as 'Ed' from Ed's Love Exchange).
Since 1995, James Belushi (John Belushi's younger brother, star of 'According to Jim'), has joined the band as Jake's brother Zee Blues. He still performs with the band, and you can see him on Return of the Blues Brothers and hear him on Blues Brothers and Friends.
There are some short audio clips in the Downloads Section. You can click on the names in the above text for photos and more information.

Sam Moore was lead singer before Eddie Floyd, joining Larry Thurston on the "Otis, Onions and the Blues" CD. He was also at the Atlantic 40th Anniversary with Elwood Blues and the BB Band in early 1988. And of course he's in "The Return of the Blues Brothers" and sings "Money (That's What I Want) on the HOB album. He was also the guy singing "John the Revelator" in BB2K.

Elwood Blues joins the band when he can, like for HOB events and stuff like that. Mainly he's now with the Sacred Hearts band, and they do "Have Love Will Travel" and the "Blues Brothers" with Jim Belushi/Zee Blues

I haven't watched BB2k yet and I probably won't thanks to all your endless antipathy towards it. Anyway i was wondering who this Zee Blues is. I have heard that there was a kid in bb2k and i was wondering if this was zee.
Anyway, sorry for my inexperience but i thought you would be the people to clear this up.

The kid is called Buster.
He was an orphan that Elwood had to mentor. (The Penguin forced him).
In the movie, he shocks everyone by playing the harp, however it was actually John Popper's harp playing.

Yea, that's why I hate Buster, it's that his harmonica playing is fake! I mean COME ON!!! That's just so corny, something the BB's are not suppost to be.
Brother Zee is the blood brother of Jake. In the original BB2K script, it said they had different fathers, but same mothers. His name was Adam Samaris, and he was to be the Illinois State Police commander. The role was later modified for Cab, the love child of Curtis. Zee does vocals and can play REAL harmonica, lol
