Blood, Sweat & Tears became one of the most adventurous American rock bands of the late 1960s by bringing jazz arrangements, a powerful horn section, blues, soul, and rock music together. The group formed in New York City in 1967 around singer, keyboardist, and songwriter Al Kooper and guitarist Steve Katz, both formerly of the Blues Project. Drummer Bobby Colomby and bassist Jim Fielder helped establish the band’s original foundation, while musicians including Fred Lipsius, Randy Brecker, Dick Halligan, and Jerry Weiss expanded its sound far beyond a conventional rock lineup.

The first Blood, Sweat & Tears album, Child Is Father to the Man, arrived in 1968 and remains a fascinating example of how many musical directions the band could explore. Kooper’s songs, especially “I Love You More Than You’ll Ever Know” and “I Can’t Quit Her,” provided a deeply personal core, while inventive arrangements of material by Tim Buckley, Harry Nilsson, and Randy Newman demonstrated the band’s range. After the album, Kooper departed, and the group underwent a major transformation with the arrival of Canadian singer David Clayton-Thomas.

The revamped lineup released Blood, Sweat & Tears late in 1968, a record that became a major commercial breakthrough. “You’ve Made Me So Very Happy,” “Spinning Wheel,” and “And When I Die” each reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100. The album won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year, and Blood, Sweat & Tears 3 also topped the American album chart. Their use of horns was more than an ornamental touch; jazz improvisation and carefully constructed arrangements became central to the music.

Personnel changes continued throughout the 1970s. Jerry Fisher took over lead vocals for New Blood, while David Clayton-Thomas later returned, and prominent players such as Georg Wadenius, Larry Willis, Lew Soloff, Lou Marini, and Mike Stern contributed to different lineups. Records including No Sweat, Mirror Image, New City, and Brand New Day revealed an ensemble that continued exploring jazz-rock, funk, and rhythm and blues even as popular music shifted around it.

The group’s recording history also includes the soundtrack to The Owl and the Pussycat, a remarkable body of concert recordings, and later archival collections that brought rare performances into circulation. Their music reached another generation through the 2023 documentary What the Hell Happened to Blood, Sweat & Tears?, accompanied by historic live recordings and a newly recorded instrumental score. The following alphabetical catalog brings together the original studio albums and the other officially issued recordings that help tell the broader story of this innovative band.
