“You’ve Made Me So Very Happy” (Blood, Sweat & Tears) #2 4/12/1969

The first of three straight #2 singles for Blood, Sweat & Tears was originally a minor Top 40 record for its co-writer, Brenda Holloway. Organist and vocalist Al Kooper brought in the tune just prior to being fired, but the group recorded it with new lead singer David Clayton-Thomas. The arrangements and the musicianship were simply outstanding; their horn section was phenomenal. Definitely a personal favorite.
