Sealed 1970 Gatefold Original. “Blood, Sweat & Tears" Had Big Expectations In Recording Their Third Album. Nevertheless, BS&T Constructed A Convincing, If Not Quite As Impressive, Companion To Their Previous Hit. David Clayton-Thomas Remained An Enthusiastic Blues Shouter, And The Band Still Managed To Put Together Lively Arrangements, Especially On The Top 40 Hits "Hi-De-Ho" And "Lucretia Mac Evil." Elsewhere, They Re-Created The Previous Album's Jazzing Up Of Laura Nyro ("He's A Runner") And Traffic ("40,000 Headmen"), Although Their Pretentiousness, On The Extended "Symphony/Sympathy For The Devil," And Their Tendency To Borrow Other Artists' Better-Known Material (James Taylor's "Fire And Rain") Rather Than Generating More Of Their Own, Were Warning Signs For The Future. In The Meantime, BS&T 3 Was Another Chart-Topping Gold Hit.” William Ruhlmann, AMG.
