This One Goes on the Desert Island
"Best of" albums aren't always worth the price, but given the body of thier work it doesn't get much better. The brass work alone makes these selections worthy. "Lucretia MacEvil" is clever, fun, boldly and simply arranged, contrasted with the impeccably performed "God Bless the Child" which carries an impressive range of vocals, horns, and overall arrangement. I recommend for any "best of" collection.
"so very happy"
to have this piece of my past wrapped up in a small package
Winter in the Suburb
It is 15 degrees out there and snow is flyng like mad, but even with all of that I can look forward to enjoying this groups bridge between the harder rock and the baladeers. And when I am gone, there will be one more storm to shovel out from under.

Yes it has all the hits, but what about other songs? It's good but it's a Greatest Hits collection! It doesn't come close to telling the story on how great this group was. Don't fool youself, take a chance on the albums.
All The BS&T You'll Ever Need
Come children and gather round the fire, there was a time when musical talent and white boy soul actually meant something. Blood, Sweat & Tears was a band that spanned that crazy time from the late 60's into the 70's when every possible musical and social convention was being challenged. Somehow their music built upon the conventions that worked while at the same time reshaping them into a new and energetic sound that has really stood the test of time. This "Best Of" compilation will give listeners both old and new the true taste of one of the great bands of their time.
this takes me back
my town used to throw an annual summer party. one year Blood Sweat and Tears were playing along with Paul Revere and the Raiders. I had a good time and had to go borrow my dad's copy of this cassette tape (yes I'm dating myself) until I could find my own. good stuff.

Hidden Treasure: Chase
By Dan Epstein, eMusic Contributor
Of all the popular music styles and sub-genres of the late '60s and early '70s, "horn rock" is perhaps the only one that hasn't been revived and revered by subsequent generations. A perhaps inevitable offshoot of mid-'60s "blue eyed soul" acts like Tom Jones, The Righteous Brothers and Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels, the "horn rock" movement began in earnest in 1967 when Chicago pop group The Buckinghams, under the direction of producer James William… more »
