ORIGINAL 1970 FIRST PRESSING = SEALED! Their BEST LP!
BLOOD SWEAT & TEARS
3
...USA - COLUMBIA RECORDS - KC - 30090
Original 1970 first press of perhaps the unsung hereo of BS&T albums, delivering what may be their BEST album in terms of solid tracks from start to finish ... here is a perfect STILL SEALED 1970 original that holds the key to this 38+ year old never opened copy:
The phenomenally successful Blood, Sweat & Tears 2nd album (Spinning Wheel, etc) was a difficult act to follow for the pioneering jazz rock ensemble bearing the same name. Nevertheless, Blood, Sweat & Tears #3 featuring the soulful, powerful, and charismatic voice of David Clayton-Thomas and filled with animated and sophisticated arrangements for Top 40 hits such as 'Hi-De-Ho' and 'Lucretia Mac Evil' yielded a number one follow up album for this groundbreaking group! The album also features distinctive, utterly fascinating interpretations of other artists repertoire such as a jazzy version of Laura Nyro’s 'He's a Runner', Traffic’s '40,000 Headmen', a grandiose version of the Rolling Stone’s 'Sympathy for the Devil,' and a compelling take on James Taylor's 'Fire and Rain'. For those in the know, #3 is a favorite BS&T album. The musical ideas are pretty diverse and the arrangements are always terrific. Sure, there's great material here and it's the ARRANGEMENTS which always set BS&T apart and made their work sound so GREAT! Some of the best arrangements they ever did are Dick Halligan's adventures with the Stones' "Sympathy For The Devil," which developed into a major work in (9) movements with everyone's help; also David's tune "Lucretia Mac Evil," likewise augmented by the group into "Lucretia's Reprise" and Tony Klatka's amazing juggling act on "40,000 Headmen," which blends a varese by Capaldi with a Steve Winwood song and ties them together with a little Bartok and a riff by Thelonius Monk !! This was a LANDMARK album in rock and roll!
"Hi-De-Ho" "The Battle" "Lucretia MacEvil" "Lucretia's Reprise" "Fire and Rain" "Lonesome Suzie" "Symphony for the Devil/Sympathy for the Devil" "He's a Runner" "Somethin' Comin' On" "40,000 Headmen"
