A loose collection of indie bands in Pennsylvania have undertaken the task of creating an album entirely inspired by Dan Aykroyd. It’s completely tongue in cheek (one song is his entire filmography set to music) and not entirely tight (the cover of Paul McCartney’s Spies Like Us is spirited, if nothing else), but it’s all done with love and contains a surprise or two. Samples can be found here and the whole story behind the album can be found here.
Damn. Now I can’t get that song out of my head. “Ooo, ooo, whataya do? No one else can dance like you.”

Interesting idea! The "Dan´s Filmography" was really funny, only the titles of the films and a few chords :P. "Dan´s blues" it´s a good song. But the cover of "Spies like us" wasn´t really great...

Daniel's Blues is great. Real blues in my opinion + the story behind... Is there a way to download it ? I'm not familiar at all with MySpace stuff.

Very sad song, but I can't stop listening to it. I downloaded it from here: http://www.thesecretstereo.com/oaks.html. It is the 3rd song listed at the top, right click on the name, then "save link as". Worked for me, hope it works for you!

Thank you Chic Lady ! You're a pearl ! I saved the file on my computer so that I can listen to it again and again.
