David Clayton-Thomas - His 1968 debut album with Blood Sweat & Tears sold 10 million copies worldwide. The self-titled record topped the Billboard album chart for seven weeks, and charted for a staggering 109 weeks. It won an unprecedented five Grammy awards, including Album of the Year and Best Performance By A Male Vocalist. It featured three hit singles, "You've Made Me So Very Happy" "And When I Die", and "Spinning Wheel" as well as an irresistible rendition of Billie Holiday's "God Bless The Child" that became a signature song for David. A 1969 summary in the Los Angeles Times proclaimed that "Blood Sweat & Tears just may be the most important pop music group of the decade!" Congratulations to David Clayton-Thomas! Class of 2010!
