HAPPY 70TH BIRTHDAY JOHN BELUSHI

Hard to believe the one and only John Belushi would have turned 70 Years old today! What might have been if drug abuse had not taken another superstar way too early in life!

^ Thanks for the reminder. Several big 40 year milestones in the last year - The 40th anniversary of Animal House was 6 months ago and the 40th anniversary of the release of Briefcase Full Of Blues was just 2 months ago. And New Years Eve less than a month ago was the 40th anniversary of the Blues Brothers at Winterland concert. Plus the start of the 4th season of SNL October 1978 ... all of that before he turned 30 years old. Happy 70th Birthday and Rest In Peace, John Belushi.

More like a retrospective of John's career, not too lengthy and it's stuff we all know already but hey it's alright. A few pics included, I like this pic from Continental Divide ...





Quite the scene with the cougar, an actual cougar lol, I don't think the slang term was around yet in 1981   .
