You're totally missing the part where Jimmy Griffin also sang some tunes but none of them are put out as a single. In the classic band lineup was David Gates, Jimmy Griffin, Robby Royer and Mike Botts. David sang vocals and played guitar. Jimmy played guitar, keyboards and percussion and also was a vocalist, Robby was mainly the bass guitarist but he also was percussion, flute or recorder and background vocals and finally Mike Botts was the drummer. Ron Edgar and Jim Gordon were used for piano playing on the first albums. Royer left in 1972 and Larry Knechtel took his role over. Larry also played the harmonica on several songs. The band began in 1967 and took a hiatus in 1973 But returned in 1976 only to officially disband in 1978. David Gates went solo but they decided to reunite in 1995 for one tour. When the touring ended they disbanded for good in 1997.

Nope sorry it is lip synced. Otherwise who is singing harmony on Everything I own? The bass and other guitar player wasn't. The drummer doesn't have a vocal mic. He does have a boom to pick up cymbals. However it was common in those days due mostly to time and money for all bands to lip sync. The very best you could hope for would for them to sing to a prerecorded track(to give a live feel and appearance). Plus his voice doesn't change volume when backing to and from the mic. That doesn't make them any less great. It was really a money/time thing.

I don't know much about his pre Bread singles but David Gates gave Saturday's Child to The Monkees and Michael Nesmith did some pre Monkees singles and called himself Michael Blessings!!!

Pure wholesome and meaningful songs from a super talented and decent band of my generation. Miss you guys...

When A Song was A Song-Talent-Musicianship-Feeling-True Lyrics-Great Songwriting- Thanks David and Bread!!!!

all is song are great but cloud and rain was at the top

like the BEATLES, David Gates the BREAD , I grew up w/ their beautiful timeless songs, listening to it bringing you back memories.

RIP Mike, Jimmy and Larry. I loved this band. Glad I got to see them in the day,,,,just good, solid easy listening stuff.

These songs take me back in time! And give me goosebumps! Had Bread’s greatest hits on 8 track. Wore it out and bought another one. Those were the days!

This was simply magical. To see my favorite group as a child, now as an adult, was amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this video with us. I very much enjoyed and appreciated it. ❤️🙏 PS: David Gates is such a cutie. 🥰

PS...David Gates is stunningly handsome❤

Rock and roll hall of fame without a doubt. Their music is timeless!!!!!!

I saw Bread in concert at Carnegie Hall on March 18, 1972; just phenomenal! Mike Botts reached out to me in the late 90s after I left a post on one of the "Bread Boards" back in the day. The nicest guy! I was in touch with him on and off up till his passing. I picked up his CD, "For Adults Only". First rate all around! I remember thinking that Sting (another of my favorites) has nothing on MIke Botts! He was also helping me with the production of my own music. All around great guy and great musician! Rest in Peace Mike Botts!

Wow, at age 38, David Gates still looks like a teenager! Thank you so much for the songs! I wish there were more singer/songwriters like you today

This was just wonderful. Make it with you was done live you can tell because David changed some of the rhythm. I love it when they do a live performance rather than lipsync. This had to have been the best concert of all time. Close to original tunes but enough apart that you can tell they're playing it. Thank you DG

All my old songs are coming back into my life. What a beautiful, mellow voice - I'd forgotten!!!!

Great video, Botts was a very underrated drummer, fun seeing this concert

What a Golden recording!! I just discovered this live version and am so happy. Such an incredibly gifted, talented and exquisite voice to accompany lyrics with such deep connections to the beauty and wonder of life, loss, love, etc. and the joy of music which lives in all of us.

November 2019 still listening.

Wow! I hope people realize what an all star band this is! Never knew Mike Botts could sing. Check out Dean Parks' list of people he's recorded with over 45 years, and Larry Knechtel, of course, is a studio superstar in addition to all his work with Bread. Great show thanks for posting!

Finding a Bread concert video to buy was tough and this is indeed a rare gem to watch. Truly underrated, I put Bread along side The Eagles and America, who are also my favourite bands until this day. Thanks for posting.

Underrated band, musicians and magical songwriters.

There will never ever be a band like Bread. It's soft-romantic melodies are unique. I bet Bread's hits took a part on a lot of young lovers intimate moments.

I never knew it was a tribute to his late Father, To me its changed the meaning of the song in a wonderful way Thanks for sharing the video 👍

very rare to find a real "live" recording. Most are actually lip sync or redubbed, totally ruining the real flavour of a live one. Can tell because (1) David sings most of these at a slightly different pitch/tone than a studio version, and (2) all the wires and cords are actually hooked to the instruments and mics -- very rare

How could you not fall in-love with his voice...the melody of his songs, the lyrics. Thank you, Mr Gates!

I can't thank you enough for this video. In my humble opinion, David Gates is the greatest writer of love songs ever! I never get tired of listening to his music. The best of the best: David Gates First. I've played this album way more than any other that I own. It's perfection from beginning to end. I've been to so many of David's concerts and had a short meeting with him. Sure wish I could have a long sit down. I wouldn't have to "Sail Around the World" to meet him, but I would sure fly across the country to do so.

Hi Peter, i'm really pleased you enjoyed the video, when i first posted it 2 years ago i didn't realise how rare it was and how many people would enjoy it. 😄

The first time I heard this song Diary is an American friend introduced me to listen to it, then I liked it, should be around 2000, my American friend passed away in 2021, yesterday suddenly remembered this song, has been listening to a single song cycle, non-stop tears, because every time I listen to this song will think of him!😭😭😭

19:00 "The love she's waited for was someone else not me"... Has a more gripping lyric ever been written about love? Wow. So powerful! He paints the picture like none other.

Larry K, was a beast of a talent. Mike Botts, too. Rest in peace.

Scoring Larry Knechtel was a stroke of genius for Bread. The man is a legend in the truest sense of the word. David Gates was a superb songwriter with a most pleasant, soothing voice when appropriate. I still well up listening to 'Diary', among others. Happy birthday David!
