Some of their stuff became so commercial later on, that it was hard to remember how good the early stuff was. They had a pretty good blues background. Their version of "God Bless the Child" was the first I heard.

David Clayton Thomas was the perfect voice for their style of music, IMO.

Those of you that like horn bands might take a look at this forum thread ( http://forum.saxontheweb.net/showthr...he-60s-and-70s) for some ideas about where to look.
