They had 13 songs chart on the Billboard Hot 100 between 1970 and 1977. David Gates was from Tulsa, Oklahoma. Gates knew Leon Russell and both played in bar bands around the Tulsa area. A bread truck came along right at the time we were trying to think of a name. We had been saying, “How about bush, telephone pole?

It began with a B, like the Beatles and the Bee Gees. Bread also had a kind of universal appeal. It could be taken a number of ways. Of course, for the entire first year people called us the Breads.

The group’s first single, “Dismal Day”, was released in June 1969 but did not chart. Their debut album, Bread, was released in September 1969 and peaked at No. The songwriting on the album was split evenly between Gates and the team of Griffin-Royer. On July 25, 1969, Bread appeared in concert for the first time, with Gordon on drums, at the Aquarius Theater in Hollywood, opening for the Flying Burrito Brothers. When Gordon’s schedule conflicted and he proved unavailable for future outings, they brought in Mike Botts as their permanent drummer. For their next single, Bread released a re-recorded version of “It Don’t Matter To Me”, a Gates song from their first album.
