==History==
A teenaged Al Kooper went to a concert for jazz trumpeter Maynard Ferguson in 1960.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 Ferguson's performance served as the catalyst to start a rock band with a horn section.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 Originally in a band called The Blues Project, Kooper left after the band leader rejected his idea of bringing in a horn section.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 He then left for the West Coast and found bassist Jim Fielder who believed in the songs that Kooper wrote.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 Though Kooper had big ideas for his next project, he didn't have the money to bring his ideas to fruition.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 He then threw a benefit for himself and invited several musicians he previously worked with, such as Judy Collins, Simon & Garfunkel, David Blue, Eric Andersen and Richie Havens.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 All of the performances were sold out, which led Kooper to believe that the gigs helped him. Unfortunately, the owner of the Au Go Go added numerous expenses to the gross receipts that the net worth after the performance wasn't enough to get a plane ticket or a taxi to the airport.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue).

He later called Fielder and convinced him to come to New York. He also asked Bobby Colomby, Anderson and Steve Katz, who was his bandmate in his former band The Blues Project.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 Colomby called Fred Lipsius and the band placed an ad in The Village Voice for more horn players.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 Within a month, the band assembled an eight piece which also contained Randy Brecker, Jerry Weiss and Dick Halligan.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 Kooper then asked John Simon to produce them, after being fresh off from producing Simon & Garfunkel's album ''Bookends''.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 The album was recorded in two weeks in December 1967. Simon asked all of the members to record their material in one take so he could study songs and make useful suggestions to the arrangements.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 After a brief promotional tour, Colomby and Katz ousted Kooper from the band, which led to ''Child is Father to the Man'' being the only album Kooper ever appeared on.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 The band would later have a number one album and several Grammys, although Kooper felt they were playing music that he didn't agree with.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue). Columbia/Legacy Recordings. CK 63987.〕 Despite being asked to leave Blood, Sweat & Tears, Kooper felt everything worked out well for him and the band.〔Blood, Sweat & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man (Legacy Reissue).
