Album Notes & Community Reviews

The veteran keyboardist, producer, and Blood, Sweat & Tears founder showcased his boundless stylistic versatility across this sprawling, highly eclectic double album. The deeply arranged tracks pivot wildly from country-rock and heavy blues to intricately orchestrated baroque pop and jazz-rock interludes. It serves as a comprehensive, wildly ambitious summation of his profound influence on late-sixties American rock.
