GREATEST HITS (BLOOD, SWEAT & TEARS) - 1972


I Blood, Sweat & Tears (noti anche come "BS&T") sono un gruppo americano formatosi nel 1967. La loro musica è un ottimo mix di rock, blues, pop music e jazz - una sorta di genere classificabile come “jazz-rock” anti-litteram. Infatti, i loro brani abbinano sapientemente i dettami del rock, pop, rhythm ‘n’ blues e musica soul, aggiungendo tratti tipici delle formazioni jazz.
“Greatest hits” è una compilation pubblicata nel 1972, comprendente i successi dei primi anni di attività dei Blood, Sweat & Tears. Fu inoltre l’ultimo album della band ad aggiudicarsi il disco d’oro.
Voto personale (insufficiente / sufficiente / buono / distinto / ottimo / eccellente): Ottimo.

Blood, Sweat & Tears (also known as "BS&T") was an American music group, formed in 1967. The band fused rock, blues, pop music and jazz improvisation into a hybrid that came to be known as “jazz-rock”.
