David Clayton-Thomas David never accepted this stranger who had seen so much war and brutality, and Fred, twice wounded, highly decorated, resented the sullen, withdrawn son he barely knew. David roomed with other hungry young musicians, playing for pizza money, hanging out in all-night cafes, arguing music, politics and philosophy with the young activist firebrands of the era, sharing gigs with Richie Havens, James Taylor and Jimi Hendrix, playing "basket houses," (play a few songs then pass the basket). Larry convinced David that there was still life in the once-proud name Blood, Sweat and Tears, and that with the right musicians, good management, and strong leadership, it could once again be an attraction on concert stages around the world. www.generalentertainment.com /artists/DavidClayton-Thomas.htm   (1749 words)
