Product-Information:

Pioneers of brash and exciting jazz rock, this American band caused a sensation when they made their debut in 1969. In an age dominated by four-piece guitar groups, Blood, Sweat & Tears seemed revolutionary with their use of a powerful brass section sparked by dynamic drummer Bobby Colomby. The group celebrated all aspects of contemporary music, playing arrangements of Traffic tunes like ‘Smiling Phases’ while exploring classical themes and jazz tunes like Billie Holiday’s ‘God Bless The Child’. Soulful Canadian born singer David Clayton-Thomas roars through ‘More And More’ and ‘Spinning Wheel’, among the highlights of a seminal, ground-breaking album.

Rezensionen

ALL MUSIC GUIDE **** "The whole album, including an arrangement of "God Bless the Child" and the radical rewrite of Traffic's "Smiling Phases", was wonderfully accessible. It was a repertoire to build a career on, and BS&T did exactly that, although they never came close to equaling this album." C. Böhm in Audio 11/00: "Über dem vitalen Fundament aus Blues, Rock, Pop und Jazz stachen vor allem die exzel- lenten Bläser ins Ohr. Zwei knackige Live-Tracks werten das toll remasterte 68er Album auf. All das gibt's zum Midprice."
