Notes
Those of us who grew up with songs of Bread might remember when 'The Guitar Man' or 'Make It With You' would randomly flow from the speakers of our parent's car. Maybe we weren't listening, because back then our favorite music came out of the back of an ice cream truck, but we heard it. As we grew more toward adolescence, our parents were still listening to the A.M. stations that continued to play songs of Bread. But we still didn't get it. Mostly because our older brothers, sisters, and various baby sitters were leaving different kinds of records on the floor for us to pick up and put on. The music of the cool older kids was full of crazy love and escapades that we envisioned to be as dramatic and dangerous as it sounded. But then, when we least expected it, we would turn the corner and run right into a Bread song. Boom! Admittedly, we listened for nostalgia's sake and/or petty irony, with some dismissing Bread as merely a guilty pleasure. But a few of us were stopped in our tracks. Right then we realized that most of the songs of Bread are as beautiful and moving as any other song that we'd ever heard. And so we learned to let the songs of Bread take us back. Friends and Lovers: Songs of Bread, is packed with wake and bake versions of Bread classics from artists like Josh Rouse, Cake, Jon and Ken from The Posies, Paula, Rachel Goswell (Mojave 3), Frazer and Erlend Oye (Kings of Convenience). After assembling the ingredients for three years we hope you are ready to get a taste of the best baked goods you've had since you were a kid. Formed in 1969 amidst the glitz and glamour of Los Angeles, the nucleus of Bread, consisting of Rob Royer, James Griffin, and David Gates met while recording in the studio. Immediately after meeting, they decided to pool their talents to form a group. With gems such as 'It Don't Matter to Me', and 'Make it with You' rising to the top of the charts, it became obvious that this 'soft rock' approach was going to be the sound that Bread would succeed and ultimately become identified with. Each song was recorded specifically for this collection. After the recent passing of founding member and co-writer James Griffin, this album perhaps has greater importance, and reverence, than when it was initially conceived. Reviews This tribute does it right by showcasing the songs and reminding fans what was so good about Bread to begin with. It makes each one of them shine that much brighter on their own. Great tribute. Pick this up immediately. 'This time around, 1970s soft-rockers Bread receive props from indie-rock admirers and progeny. The band's specialty was a very melancholy, limpid, romantic gentle-rock -- Belle & Sebastian without the sarcasm, sort of. To re-create it, Friends and Lovers enlists a great deal of local talent: ex-Tarnation Paula Frazer's country-meets-Procol Harum 'Everything I Own,' the Moore Brothers' transformation of 'Look at Me' into an ache-laden ancient British Isles ballad, and Cake's rather straight-up 'The Guitar Man.' Elsewhere, Oranger decorates 'Make It with You' with 'A Day in the Life'-type freakout, and a Brazilian and drum 'n' bass-flavored 'Baby I'm a Want You' from Call and Response sounds like Karen Carpenter singing from beyond with the Thievery Corporation. Friends is amazingly consistent throughout -- there's a palpable feeling of the performers' affection toward these songs, minus the smug irony sometimes blighting 'tribute' sets.' - East Bay Express Covering Bread was a piece of Cake for eclectic singer-guitarist John McCrea. By Gene Triplett Entertainment Editor - Oaklahoman He's no snob when it comes to music, solid proof of which is found in Cake's peculiarly pleasing alt-rock deconstruction of Gloria Gaynor's disco-era hit 'I Will Survive,' released in 1996. Some critics saw it as an ironic put-down of a mainstream genre from a band that waves it's freak flag high. 'I was being dead serious and sincere,' Cake front man McCrea said from his Sacramento,
