Yes! He was in both the Blues Brothers and that sequel they made, Blues Brothers 2000. He was the Reverend in that church where they were dancing and hopping around and celebrating like crazy. You know, when Jake sees the light, which is a great scene, and realizes, "The BAND!"

He sure did
He was the Preacher. Right after Jake gets released from Prison, they go see Cab Calloway at the Orphanage. Calloway sends him to the Church where James Brown is Preaching, and Jake gets a revelation to get the band back together.

In the 1st film he's the preacher at the triple rock church where they sing "The Old Landmark" (and that's a very young Chaka Khan as the main soloist of the choir),
he's also the preacher in the tent in the 2nd film.
he sings 2 numbers including "please don't go" at the end of the movie.
