David Gates (formerly of Bread) never achieved the heights that Bread managed to reach, but his solo catalogue should not be overlooked. That is, if you can find it. The tunes on this CD are just like more slices of Bread (OK, bad joke). It contains the 1977 smash "Goodbye Girl," also featured in the Neil Simon film and the top 40 hit "Took The Last Train." Most songs are recycled from his first two solo releases. I actually prefer his last outing..."Love is Always Seventeen" from 1994. Easier to find, too. Shame he did not put out more...such a great voice.Today this CD was selling for ~$100. Check current price. You can probably score it cheaper on ebay.
