I threw in the track listing from the cd reissue so Guitar Man would have a chance but you get a Gates solo track too if you're so inclined

could easily go with any of the first six

Even though I prefer the totally awesome Ken Boothe version it has to be "Everything I Own".

will OTM. The first 6 tracks = side 1 of the original "Best of Bread" LP, which is flawless soft rock. Side 2 has some of their failed attempts at hard(-er) rock. There's no good reason to turn that record over.

This should have been called "Baby I'm-A Poll You."

i think i'm going "it don't matter to me"

― velko, Saturday, 11 April 2009 16:18 (seventeen years ago)

"Everything I Own" is wonderful, I voted for it.

My dad named me after this song as well, funny story though. He always thought the lyrics said "Audrey was her name." Therefore, my name is Audrey, I pointed out it was actually called Aubrey when I was older, he couldn't believe it XDDD Most epic mess up ever XD

It's hard to believe this is the same David Gates who once wrote and/or produced big and brassy girl group songs like the Girlfriends' "My One & Only, Jimmy Boy" and Dorothy Berry's "You're So Fine."

The Murmaids' "Popsicle & Icicles" is a little easier to believe was him.

It Don't Matter To Me, but not an easy choice.

I just made 30 record bowls a few weeks ago, and one of them was out of THe Best of Bread. And it was all my friends' and my favorite because it was so silly having a bowl that said "The Best of Bread"

Good Christ, I wouldn't play this stuff at a dog.

We know, Alex.
We all know you don't like Bread.

― ian, Sunday, 12 April 2009 19:08 (seventeen years ago)

It cannot be overstated.

"The Last Time" & "Look What You've Done" got the shaft. (Voted "Everything I Own," though.)

No love for "Diary"? He found it underneath a tree!

nine years pass...

Good Christ, I wouldn't play this stuff at a dog.
