Bread (1970) Look What You've Done‏

David Gates and Bread are like Marc Bolan and T Rex; it's not quite a solo artist with a backing band but they are easily more than the front man of a popular group they are their respective band's creative core. They are irreplaceable and behind a lot of the success and responsible for the sound. Gates however was not the only singer songwriter in Bread though he wrote and sang all the singles. Bread being a singles band to an extent made Gates too much the face of the band while Jimmy Griffin, a talented singer songwriter had his gems relegated to album fodder. 
 This gem still remains my favourite Bread song and Griffins best contribution.  The fact it was still not a single in favour of Gates lethargicly mellow pop tunes is disgraceful.  The song has some dynamic hooks with Griffins' paced melody over a original guitar strum. The breathless delivery of Griffins' worn down lover serves the exasperated tone of this bitter breakup song in a complex way that Gates often did with his deceptively romantic love songs.
