“BS&T is sadden by the news that former member David Bargeron has passed away.

Dave was on almost every Artist’s album in the 70’s and beyond he was a great musician and a valued member of Blood Sweat & Tears.

Dave will be missed”

Blood Sweat and Tears was born from a selfish notion that we could combine the sophistication and musical skill level of jazz music with the energy and universal appeal of rock vocal music. Instead of incessant whiny guitar interludes, we would have improvised, spontaneous jazz solos. Horn arrangements were not an afterthought, they were fully integrated into the songs themselves, some written by band members and others that would come from many different resources. These are the ideas that formulated the concept of BS&T.  

The most commercially successful version of the band was in fact, our second line-up. That set the course of seeking out the most talented musicians and having a revolving door for stars to join us while in between their tours. And it worked! No bored players here.

What endures today is the evolution of that concept…. Every player is an original member.

BS&T has never stopped touring. Fans have their favorite musicians who are originals to them and we all agree but it is simply Blood Sweat and Tears at its best“.
