Blood, Sweat, & Tears - Child Is Father To The Man 1967
1967년 데뷔 엘범 Child Is Father To The Man 을 발표했으나 흥행은 저조했습니다.
이 엘범에는 I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know 라는 부르스록의 명곡이 담겨있었으나 초기에는 알려지지 않았고,
Al Kooper가 밴드를 떠난 뒤 BS&T 2집이 크게 성공하면서 서서히 팬들에게 알려졌고 국내에선 가장 유명한 곡이 되었습니다.
1집이 실패한 후 Al Kooper는 밴드를 떠나 Mike Bloomfield, Steve Still과 Super Session을 결성 크게 성공하고,
록 역사의 기념비적인 앨범과 Season of Witch라는 명곡을 남기게 됩니다.
BS&T는 그룹 Chicago와 함께 금관악기를 록에 접목한 재즈&부르스&록의 시초이자 크게 성공한 밴드였고,
크게 성공한 2집 Blood, Sweat & Tears에서 그 면모가 여실히 들어납니다.
Al Kooper 작곡과 보컬이 빛나는 I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know 는 화이트 블루스의 입문곡같이 최급되던 때가 있었습니다.
키보드와 금관악기와 보컬이 함께 어울어지는 이 곡은 처음 듣는 사람도 블루스를 좋아하게 만드는 그런 곡이었습니다.
글 뒤에 밴드가 재편되고 BS&T 재즈록의 진수를 살짝 옅볼 수 있는 2집의 Variations on a Theme by Erik Satie 곡의 링크도 걸었습니다.
Blood, Sweat & Tears - "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know"
(슬라이스 쇼의 내용은 살짝 Al Kooper 위주)
If I ever leave you
You can say I told you so
If I ever hurt you babe
You know I hurt myself as well
Is that any way for a man to carry on?
D'you think he wants his little loved one gone?
I love you baby, more than you'll ever know
More than you'll ever know
When I wasn't makin' too much money
You know where my paycheck went
You know I brought it home to baby
And I never spent one red cent
Is that any way for a man to carry on
D'you think he wants his little loved one gone?
I love you baby, more than you'll ever know
More than you'll ever know
I'm not tryin' to be
Any kind of man
I'm tryin' to be somebody
You can love, trust and understand
I know that I can be, yeah yeah
A part of you that no one else could see
I just gotta hear, to hear you say
It's all right, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm only flesh and blood
But I can be anything that you demand
I could President of General Motors baby, hey
Or just a tiny little grain of sand
Is that any way for a man to carry on
D'you think he wants his little loved one gone?
I love you baby, I love you baby
I love you more than you'll ever know, yeah
I love you baby
If I ever leave you
You can say, I told you so
And if I ever hurt you
You know, I hurt myself as well
Is that any way for a man to carry on
D'you think he wants his little loved one gone?
I tried to tell ya, I love you baby, I love you baby, yeah yeah yeah
I love you more than you'll ever know, yeah yeah yeah
I love you, I love you, I love you baby
Well, all right
I told ya, so many times before
I love you, I love you, I love you
If you don't know, then I'll tell ya one more time
I love you, I love you, I love you, yeah yeah
