Why this is different from the Best of Bread,
By
This review is from: Baby Im a Want You (Audio CD)
If you already have one of the many BEST OF Bread albums, and want to hear some more, this is as good a place as any to start. Bread's original studio albums are all equally excellent. The difference from the BEST OF albums is that you get to hear more James Griffin songs, because most of the "hits" were penned (and sung) by David Gates. Songs like "Down on My Knees" and "Just Like Yesterday" have the unmistakable Griffin signature. They're not classics like "Baby I'm a Want You" or "Everything I Own", but very good nonetheless. Lets you see the other side of Bread.

Very cool CD! A must buy!,

This review is from: Baby Im a Want You (Audio CD)
Okay you have to buy "Baby I Want You" by Bread. All of the songs on it are great, especially "Everything I own"(my fav song). If you are a soft-rock fan then you can not live without this album for another day! All of the music on the album has a certain quality to it that just kind of calms you almost. Their music isn't too hardcore or heavy, it's just right for taking it easy. I strongly suggest you buy this album. You won't regret it! So go and buy it! Now!

A great album,
By
This review is from: Baby Im a Want You (Audio CD)
This album brings together some of Bread's best ballads and a few strong rock songs too. They often seem to start an album with a rocky song, and 'Mother freedom' is arguably the heaviest song they have ever done. It is also excellent and catchy, and I don't really like this sort of music, so that is saying something! 'Down on my knees' is also fairly upbeat and catchy, but not as good.
The ballads again stand out, and Griffin writes some of his best. 'Dream lady' has an infectious melody, and nice backing vocals, with the gutiar plucking away. 'Just like yesterday' is one of his best piano ballads ever, and I love 'Games of magic' for its melody. Another ballad, without any drums. GAtes is also on form. 'Diary' is his 'Aubrey' of the album, with a beautiful set of lyrics, definitely my favourite by Bread, and a gorgeous string arrangement, with subtle backing vocals by James. 'Baby I'm a want you' is really well known and desrvedly so, for it is beautiful. I love 'everything I own' also, particularly the middle eight, where I am still not sure if a guitar is being played, or it is actually a harp. Only one song is noticeably weaker for me, the substandard 'this isn't what the governmeant'. Apart from the clear pun this is an irritating dirge of a number, that should have been left off and replaced with something else. Still highly highly recommended!
