When the Long Ryders released Psychedelic Country Soul in 2019, it was the work of a band with some justified swagger in their step -- after a handful of well-received reunion tours, fate conspired to give them the opportunity to cut a new album, and if it was a bit less raucous than their classic LPs of the '80s, the songs were great and the performances compelling.

The difference between Blood, Sweat & Tears and the group's preceding long-player, Child Is Father to the Man, is the difference between a monumental seller and a record that was "merely" a huge critical success. Arguably, the Blood, Sweat & Tears that made this self-titled second album -- consisting of five of the eight original members and four newcomers, including singer David Clayton-Thomas -- was really a different group from the one that made Child Is Father to the Man, which was done largely under the direction of singer/songwriter/keyboard player/arranger Al Kooper.
