Where this album fits

Career context
Released in 1998, 'Blues Brothers 2000' served as a follow-up to the original film soundtrack from 1980. At this point, The Blues Brothers were re-establishing their presence after years away from the spotlight, following the death of John Belushi in 1982. This album marked a revival for the band, showcasing both classic covers and new material as they sought to reclaim their role in the music scene.
