This channel is mainly dedicated to the music of James ("Jimmy") Griffin, who was a member of the group Bread from 1968-1977 (with a hiatus). James wrote and sang lead vocals on half of the music produced by Bread, yet his music was unknown for the duration of the group's history, except by those who owned the albums. Jimmy was a phenomenal songwriter and vocalist who lived in the shadow of David Gates, even though he was equally talented, and vocally superior.

Shame on all of those who were involved in making the decision to keep Jimmy's music hidden from the airwaves and relegate his talent to album filler for David Gates showpieces. Jimmy gave those of us who loved him so many treasured years of music. Many thanks to Robb Royer for continuing his long-term writing partnership with Jimmy and creating so many masterpieces with him. Rest in peace Jimmy. You are loved and appreciated.
