from of the remnants of the Blues Project , by keyboard player/singer
Al Kooper and guitarist Steve Katz of that group and saxophonist Fred
Lipsius . The rhythm section consisted of bassist Jim Fielder and
drummer Bobby Colomby and the horn section was composed of trumpeters
Randy Brecker and Jerry Weiss, and trombonist , Dick Halligan . The
band's first album, "Child Is Father To The Man" is now regarded as a
masterpiece of jazz rock. The band's self titled album in 1969 with the
