    I’m a metal head, I listen to stuff like Megadeth, KISS, Ozzy Osbourne, Slayer, stuff like that but this song started it all for me. I know that it’s not even hard rock or anything but this is the song that got me in to classic stuff back when I was around 8 or 9. I’m 16 now and I still look back at this song from time to time because it truly is a great song and I appreciate my step grandfather for introducing me to it.

      I grew up with hearing this on AM radio. It's awesome to appreciate the roots of where hard rock and metal derived from. And I was into the 80's metal scene in real time. Music is where it's at. Keep on rockin, guys.

    This song is written by the Bronx child prodigy and genius singer/songwriter, Laura Nyro, from her first LP 'More Than a New Discovery' released January 1967 when she was aged 19. She wrote 'And When I Die' when she was aged 16. At one time she was approached by BST to be their singer, but she declined to pursue her solo career, At that time, David Geffen was her manager. Nyro is loved and revered by the music industry as one of its greatest ever talents. Just about every artist, producer and musician is a fan, to this day. She passed from ovarian cancer in 1997 aged 49. She had a son, her one child born. She was inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame in 2012 by Bette Midler, with her son Gil accepting the award.

      It was the first night of shrimping season. About 1992, so close to the ocean I could almost see the waves breaking from a 14 foot jon boat.. A hell of a storm came out of nowhere so I ran the boat up in the marsh grass and turned the little boat upside down over me and my guests. I sang this song because I just knew my life was over. It seemed to have appeased everybody. I am a conservative and make no excuses for it.. Seems like I would have sung a spiritual , so beats me.

    It was BS&T's third straight release to peak at #2, it followed "You've Made Me So Very Happy" and "Spinning Wheel", and all three records each spent 13 weeks a piece on the Top 100...

    AND WHEN I DIE pieseň skupiny Blood Sweat and Tears, ktorá bola v rebríčku Billboardu 13 týždňov od 18. oktobra 1969 a ako tretí TOP 10 hit skupiny za sebou obsadila 2.m. za piesňou Come Together/Something od Beatles a od RIAA získala zlatú platňu ako tretí singel skupiny za sebou.V historii sa stalo prvý krát, aby z jedného albumu tri piesne boli ocenené zlatou platňou ako sa to stalo v prípade druhého albumu tejto skupiny, ktorý bol v rebríčku Billboardu 109 týždňov z toho 51 v TOP 10 a na vrchole 7 týždňov a za predaj 3 800 000 kopii získal 4 platinové platne. Verzia na albume začínala solom na ústnu harmoniku gitaristu Steve Katza, ktorý odišiel zo skupiny v roku 1973 ako druhý po Al Kooperovi z pôvodnej štvorice skupiny vytvorenej v New Yorku, ktorá debutovala ako kvartet v septembri 1967 na úvod koncertu skupiny Moby Grape v nočnom klube Cafe Au Go Go v Grenwich Village v suterene domu na Bleecker Street 152.V oktobri štvoricu Kooper, Colomby Katz a Fielder doplnil Fred Lipsius a po vystúpeni ako kvartet vo Fillmore East v New Yorku zostavu doplnili poprední jazzoví hudobníci Halligan, Brecker a Weiss. V plnej zostave vystupili v spomínanom klube v dňoch 17 až 19. novembra 1967. Po uzatvorení zmluvy so spoločnosťou Columbia Records nahrali album Child Is Father To The Man, ktorý predstavil zmes bluesových skladieb ovplyvnených psychadelickým rockom, klasickou hudbou s jazzovo znejúcimi dychmi, ktorých autorom najmä Kooper. Po jeho odchode skupina s novým spevákom založila repertoar najmä na cover verziach menej známych piesni, alebo albume Blood Sweat And Tears sa im už nepodaroilo zopakovať úspech a postupne výmenami hudobníkov strácala na úspechu až napokon v zostave zostal ako jediný z pôvodnej zostavy Colomby, ktorý po rôznych právnych sporoch je jediným vlastníkom názvu skupiny, ktorá v súčasnosti vystupuje vlastne ako cover band bez jeho účasti.

    Pretty sure it was 1974. I was 14 or 15. My (pretty) cousin was 18 and asked if I wanted to be her date at a school event. I think she lived in Mesquite Texas. My first concert. Blood Sweat & Tears in a high school auditorium. Loved them ever since. Some other guy was there singing "Dead skunk in the middle of the road". I need to look that up.

    @modspell These guys were never hippies. This was pure pop in the Tom Jones fashion. Most of the backing musicians were Julliard graduates.

    They had the balls to play hard core jazz - lots of charisma. The cowboy theme inserted is great too!

    Считаю голос Д.Клейтона-Томаса одним из лучших в джаз роке: за мощь, красоту, силу и не подражаемость.

    Lungs of iron on the tuba solo. I would have passed out in the first 12 seconds.

    tenor sax, bill tillman, moved to dallas in the late 70s and played in the dallas jazz orchestra for several years before forming his own band. he was fun to play with and I guess he's still playing. man, could he eat. I watched him throw down half a cake and gallon of ice cream in one sitting.
