This channel is mainly dedicated to the music of James ("Jimmy") Griffin, who was a member of the group Bread from 1968-1977. James wrote and sang lead vocals on half of the music produced by Bread, yet his music was largely unknown for the duration of the group's history, except by those who owned the albums. Jimmy was a phenomenal songwriter/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.
Many thanks to Robb Royer for continuing his long-term writing partnership with Jimmy and for creating so many masterpieces with him. Rest in peace Jimmy Griffin. You will never be forgotten.

Due to copyright issues, I have avoided uploading Bread's material from their released albums. Many users here on YouTube do upload this material, but they get nailed for copyright violations eventually, and then the videos either get removed or their channels get suspended. I wish to preserve this channel, so I will not be taking those risks. But please check out Bread's albums, because if you've only heard their hits, you are really missing out.
~ Thank you to all who have subscribed. I apologize for the length of time I've been away from this station. I hope to add some new videos soon. I appreciate your patience.
*ATTENTION* Please do not send me requests to supply you with music. If the music is commercially available to purchase, please do so. I am not opposed to sharing unreleased material, but I simply do not have time to honor all the requests.
