lso out of print on CD on Rhino (73504) - D01.
Bread: David Gates, James Griffin, Robb Royer, Mike Botts.
Producers: David Gates, James Griffin, Robb Royer.
Recorded at Sound Recorders, Hollywood, California. Originally released on Elektra (74086). Includes liner notes by Barry Alfonso.
Bread's third album, 1971's MANNA, is in many ways similar to its predecessor, ON THE WATERS. Same production team, same Crosby Stills Nash and Young-meet-the Association musical style, even a similar bread-related pun for the title; in other words, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
David Gates, James Griffin, Robb Royer and Mike Botts had, by this point in their career, come up with a brilliant amalgam of folk-rock, Carpenters-style soft pop and glossy production that is a textbook example of the sort of soft rock which ruled the charts on the early-to-mid-'70s. MANNA's biggest hit, Gates' "If," is a classic of the style and one of the group's trademark songs. The rest of this solidly engaging record is equally enticing for those into this sort of thing, especially the opening "Let Your Love Go" and Griffiths' wistful "She Was My Lady."
