Don't know why it says CW.

Thanks.
The second guitarist is also from Muddy's band.
I've read somewhere that they used Muddy's band because initially Muddy had to be in the scene, but he got ill.

Muddy, Big Eyes, Fuzz…..apparently I’ll never be really good until I get a good nickname!
Let's continue the topic then!
Another one...

You just gotta pick a name that sounds like a pedal!
Michael Henderson did some of the Studio work them… not sure by the picture though.
You don’t get good when you get the nickname, you get the nickname when
you get good
unless your nickname is Turd fingers or similar...
It's a clever bit of foreshadowing, as anyone who's seen and enjoyed the film will understand.

I’ve seen and enjoyed the film many many times but obviously I am not sharp enough for this bit.
Yes, both kinds of music. Give that man half a pack of cigarettes!
I agree Country Western is right……. But
It could be Car Wreck also
Chase and crash scenes
the record set by The Blues Brothers. In the film's major crash scene, 63 cars were destroyed.
Ooo! Not what I was thinking but well played — give that man pair of sunglasses (for nighttime wear)!
These are Pilates level stretches
