The blues is America's gift to the music world; it inspired a new generation of musicians, and like the saying goes: 'Blues had a baby, and they named it Rock n' Roll'.
Throughout Hollywood's history dozens of blues songs have been used in movies, so here's five examples of famous blues songs that appear in them:
5. THE RAINMAKER : 'How Blue Can You Get?' - B.B. King
4. SKYFALL : 'Boom Boom' - The Animals (Cover of John Lee Hooker's original)
3. THE BLUES BROTHERS : 'Sweet Home Chicago' - The Blues Brothers
2. GOODFELLAS : 'Mannish Boy' - Muddy Waters
1. TERMINATOR 2 : 'Bad To The Bone' - George Thorogood & The Destroyers
