talk about classic, this is about as classic in the rock world as you get get.today i offer to you all the 1993 silver anniversary concert celebrating the amazing 1968 'child is father to the man' release by the first incarnation of blood, sweat & tears with al kooper.four shows took place at the bottom line in march of 1993 and featured kooper along with other original bs&t members; steve katz, randy brecker, jim fielder and fred lipsius.also helping out were; anton fig, lew soloff, tom malone and jimmy vivino among others including a string quartet.to my knowledge these were the only shows where the entire album was performed and that includes the time when the group briefly toured in the 60's.about a year after this, kooper celebrated his 50th birthday at the bottom line with shows featuring music from his career including sets by the blues project, bs&t and his current band.those shows were used for a live release and shouldn't be confused with this upload.i recall talking to anton fig about these shows and he remembered them being great, better than the ones used later for the other collection.

the other thing you will notice is the length of the show.they only do the one lp but almost all of the songs are extended and they really get a chance to work out.also notice in the set list the encore is not from that release but as they ran out of material, chose an interesting jazz standard which unfortunately fades out.not much more to be said about this except that it's a very good audience recording and if you have any familiarity with this lp at all, you'll be jumping on right away.all info is in the file.
enjoy,
dave
