Blood, Sweat & Tears Biography
Review The Artist (1)
Source: http://www.rdrop.com/users/rickert/bst.html
Early in 1967 in order to pay Al's way to England. Keyboardist Al Kooper and drummer Bobby Colomby put together an ensemble of classically trained jazz musicians and combined their horns with the remains of The Blues Project, including guitarist Steve Katz. After they performed, Katz and Colomby convinced Kooper to stay in the U.S.The result was a unique blend of rock and roll and jazz, a throwback to the day of the big-band, and a nod to the popular psychedelic rock of the mid to late 60's. This union was Blood, Sweat, and Tears. The arrival of David Clayton-Thomas brought success to the group and throughout the years, BS&T sold over 35million albums, won several Grammy Awards, and continued to push the envelope in combining elements of rock, jazz, blues, latin music, classical, and soul.

Review about Blood, Sweat & Tears
One of The Better Bands | Reviewer: Jim Thomas | 8/25/2005
I was first exposed to BS&T when a (now ex) Brother-in-law left behind his vinyl copy of "Greatest Hits", which I promptly wore a needle through, listening to it so much.
Later, I discovered for myself the differences between the Al Kooper voiced offering "Child is Father to The Man", and everything after (except for the dismal "New Blood") which featured David Clayton Thomas.
You owe it to yourself to check out all the Band's albums (which sadly have passed from my possession)...even their ABC Paramount stuff.
BS&T...so much more than "Spinning Wheel". Listen to them on Vinyl today!
