Portrayed by John Belushi. Joliet Jake is the lead singer in The Blues Brothers Show Band and Revue. A scrappy, slightly vindictive psychopath/sociopath man-child with a heart of gold, Jake is certainly not the type of guy you want your daughter to marry. But he'd probably ditch her at the altar anyway. Jake's favorite things in life are beer, fried chickens, and R&B, Soul, Funk, and Early Rock & Roll. He sings from the heart and never looks back.

Trivia * John Belushi based Jake's personality on Canadian blues singer Richard "Hock" Walsh of the Downchild Blues Band. * Much of the interplay between Jake and Elwood was based upon Aykroyd and Belushi's real relationship, in particular on a cross-country trip they took in the late 1970s. * Jake was born Jacob E. Papageorge, to Artesia Papageorge, a woman imprisoned for killing her husband. * He has his name tattooed across the knuckles of his left hand.
