Next album = "Blood, Sweat & Tears 4 " (1971)"Blood, Sweat & Tears 3" is the third album by the band
Blood, Sweat & Tears , released in 1970.After the huge success of their previous album, "Blood, Sweat & Tears 3" was highly anticipated and it rose quickly to the top of the US album chart. It also yielded two hit singles: a cover of
Carole King 's "Hi-De-Ho," and "Lucretia MacEvil." However, the album relied heavily on cover material and it received lukewarm reviews (this may also have been influenced by the band's participation in an unpopular U.S. government-sponsored tour of Eastern Europe).Track listing
