    Aux Etats-Unis, Blood, Sweat and Tears est sans conteste le groupe de rock de la fin des sixties qui intègre le plus de jazz à sa démarche musicale : passages swing intégrés aux compositions binaires, présence active d’une phalange de souffleurs (trompette, trombone, sax) qui ne se limite pas à un travail de section (comme dans le R’n B ou dans un groupe comme Chicago) mais est faite de vrais solistes - parmi ces solistes, un trompettiste qui fera ensuite une belle carrière dans le jazz, Lew Soloff, le tromboniste Jerry Hyman et un saxophoniste dont on ne sait trop ce qu’il est devenu depuis, Fred Lipsius. Tous trois sont mis à contribution dans la superbe version du God bless the child de Billie Holiday qui figure dans le disque BST 2 (sans doute le meilleur) : 439. Blood, Sweat and Tears: God Bless the child David Clayton-Thomas (voc) Lew Soloff, Chuck Winfield (tp, flgh) Jerry Hyman (tb) Fred Lipsius (as, pn) Dick Halligan (org, pn) Steve Katz (gt, hca) Jim Fielder (b) Bobby Colomby (dms); rec 1968 (CBS) A côté de ces groupes rock (et de plusieurs autres) qui lorgnent vers le jazz, il nous faut maintenant repasser de l’autre côté, et évoquer le phénomène inverse : l’impact qu’a le rock sur de nombreux jazzmen, à commencer par Miles Davis ! Electric Miles - Le Jazz-Rock en gestation Et revoilà Miles Davis ! Décidément omniprésent dans l’histoire du jazz moderne. Un petit rappel, peut-être ? 1945 : débuts dans le be-bop aux côtés de Charlie Parker : d’emblée, le son et le phrasé de Miles se situent aux antipodes de ceux de Dizzy et des autres trompettistes be-bop.

    The Legendary STEVE KATZ In an Evening Of Story and Song Guitarist/singer/songwriter/storyteller Steve Katz has played on an enviable string of recordings during the 1960s and '70s in acoustic folk, jazz, blues, R&B, hard rock, and almost every other popular genre that's come along in America since the start of the 1960s. Katz was born in Brooklyn, NY in 1945 and grew up in the upstate city of Schenectady. Already a gifted musician in his early teens, he was good enough to get hired for a local television program called Teenage Barn, doing his versions of pop hits of the late '50s. As he got older, Steve was drawn to folk music and blues. He studied traditional American guitar styles with Dave Van Ronk and the Rev. Gary Davis. Eventually, he became part of a circle of similarly minded folk and blues enthusiasts who formed the Even Dozen Jug Band, which also included John Sebastian, Maria Muldaur, David Grisman, and Stefan Grossman. After moving to Greenwich Village, Steve Katz became an established part of the Village music scene, eventually joining The Blues Project, New York City's first major home-grown contribution to blues- rock. The Blues Project had an impact on music that far exceeded their relatively modest record sales. Katz was part of the Blues Project lineup that played the Monterey Pop Festival. Later that same year, with Blues Project bandmate, Al Kooper, Katz founded the original Blood Sweat & Tears. He recorded five albums with the band. Throughout the end of the 1960s and early 70s, Katz performed at countless historic venues including the Fillmore East, and several major rock festivals including Woodstock.
