when I was a kid I thought this was rock and roll now I find it really mellow lame-ass rock and roll

Got to see David Gates & Bread in 1997 at Six Flags Over Texas on their reunion tour! When they closed the show with "IF", the whole amphitheater exploded with applause! Awesome concert!

My dad used to sing this to me every night as a lullaby. I still listen to it to fall asleep at night ❤️

The Very Best of The Everly Brothers

All I Have to Do Is Dream

737 is a song about the feeling of being soulmates. The text was inspired of a feeling i got when i looked into the eyes of my beloved wife on a flight to Lanzarote in 2008. Today it is our 25th engagement day and i still feel the same. For those who know the swedish pop history the title is also a pastiche of a song by the indie band Kent.

Bread was formed in 1969, when leading producer/arranger and session man David Gates produced Pleasure Faire, a band that included guitarist Robb Royer and songwriter James Griffin.

As Bread, the three combined to create a polished, melodic soft-rock style, which by their second album, On The Waters, unleashed the chart topping single “Make It With You.” Further albums yielded major hits in “Baby I’m A Want You” “Everything I Own,” and “Guitar Man,” by which time another noted session man, Larry Knechtel, had replaced Royer.

Bread’s smooth pop approach also earned them a stream of international hits and they toured successfully. Bread’s sound was not without an edge, but those immaculate pop hits overshadowed the group‘s compelling albums.

Bread was a highly significant group for Elektra as they eased the label’s transition into the 70’s by which time music was changing and Elektra, now part of the Warner Communications Group, reflected the more accessible, AM fueled direction.
