Obituaries: Canadian Artists and Industry Figures Remember David Clayton-Thomas and Clive Davis

Last week, the music world lost two genuine legends. Here are tributes to them both from Canadian stars and industry notables.

David Clayton-Thomas (born David Henry Thomsett), the Toronto vocalist and songwriter who earned global success and multiple Grammys as frontman of pioneering jazz-rock group Blood, Sweat & Tears, died on June 24, at age 84.

An obit issued by publicist Eric Alper on his passing called Clayton-Thomas ''One of the most recognizable voices of his generation" while noting that he sold more than 40 million records and "helped shape the very sound of jazz-rock.''

He joined Blood, Sweat & Tears as its vocalist in 1968, prior to the release of its self-titled international hit second album. Blood, Sweat & Tears sold ten million copies worldwide, topped the Billboard 200 for seven weeks, and remained on the chart for 109 weeks.
