 | | Al Kooper, Jim Fielder, Fred Lipsius, Randy Brecker, Jerry Weiss, Dick Halligan, Steve Katz, and Bobby Colomby formed the original incarnation of the band, which was named after a 1963 album by Johnny Cash. |
| | Kooper was bandleader, having insisted on that position based on his experiences with Blues Project, his previous band, which had been organized as an egalitarian collective and fallen apart. |
| | Because of the presence of horns and the lack of Al Kooper, Blood, Sweat and Tears had trouble holding onto any sort of countercultural hipness at a time when this was very important. |
