Think it was Big Walter Horton playing with JLH. I understand that stretch of Maxwell Street is all history now.
S&W content: I estimate at least a dozen revolvers in that scene, but all appropriately hidden :Q

Nate’s, formerly at 807 W. Maxwell, was backdrop for a scene in “The Blues Brothers” where John Lee Hooker sings a soulful version of “Boom, Boom” smack in the middle of the street. He was backed up by musicians including Pinetop Perkins and Willie “Big Eyes” Smith. Muddy Waters was supposed to appear but was sick the day of shooting.

Jake: Car's got a lot of pickup.
Elwood: It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?
Jake: Fix the cigarette lighter.
I believe it was a 1974 Dodge Monaco

It was indeed, and all 13 (12?) of the cars they purchased for that movie were ex-CHP cars, which did indeed have the almighty 440, along with all those other cop goodies. One of them was specifically rigged to fall apart.
Maybe the best rock'n'roll movie ever made.
