Artist Bread
Song The Guitar Man
Album Guitar Man
Year 1972

Bread's GUITAR MAN was not one of its most commercially successful albums--the album's only chart single was the title track--but it's a finely-crafted, well-constructed soft rock album which shows the group at its best. Bandleader David Gates first made his name as a session producer and songwriter in mid-'60s L.A.; the Monkees' hard-pop "Saturday's Child" is one of his best and best-known efforts.

He clearly learned at the feet of such icons as Brian Wilson and Phil Spector, as even the weaker songs here are sublimely arranged, with crystalline production. The best songs, such as "Welcome to the Music" or "I Didn't Even Know Her Name," are comparable to the best of the Carpenters' singles being released at the same time.

  • I loved this song in 1972. I was fourteen then, and I would LOVE to relive the 70's! The 70's music is the best!

  • @JACKMYHOGGOFF ..I was born in '57 and when Bread came on the radio in my car...I was a hard rocker...No light weight stuff for me...but secretly I liked Bread...Then I got hitched in the 90s to a woman who really dugged, Bread, Badfinger, etc....Brought it all out of me...Just embrace the music....
