DAVID CLAYTON - THOMAS - In Concert: A Musical Biography (2006)

The once and future lead singer of Blood, Sweat & Tears was recorded live at Toronto’s Opera House on October 26th and 27th, 2005. It’s a musical biography of sorts, reflecting the history and legacy of an incredibly prolific career. The album is comprised of songs Clayton-Thomas either wrote or performed with Blood Sweat & Tears—from ’60s classics like “Spinning Wheel” and “Go Down Gamblin” to ’70s and ’80s hits like the bebop gem “Gimme That Wine”—as well as songs culled from his first Justin Time album "Aurora" (2005)—the Billie Holiday-penned “Don’t Explain” and David’s own “Wild Women & Po’ Boys”.

The former Blood, Sweat & Tears singer is in fine voice on this live 2005 retrospective of his notable successes with the jazz-rock group and solo. Well-known musical memorabilia, such as his version of Billie Holiday's "God Bless the Child," and the BS&T originals "And When I Die," "Spinning Wheel," and "(You've Made Me) So Very Happy," make this set an entertaining jaunt down memory lane, while a sensitive reading of Holiday's "God Bless the Child" puts the bombast of "Lucretia MacEvil" into perspective. - cduniverse.com
