David Gates wrote and sang on eleven of the records that entered the Billboard Hot 100 charts between 1970 and 1973. Jimmy Griffin also wrote many of the songs for the band, but these were usually relegated to the B-side of the singles, which caused a lot of tension between David Gates and Jimmy Griffin.

"Lost Without Your Love", from late 1976, was the last Top 40 hit Bread produced before their final breakup.

15. Which member of Bread did not feature on the 1978 'David Gates and Bread' tour?

From Quiz The Grateful Bread

Answer: Jimmy Griffin

Jimmy Griffin and David Gates had a falling-out in 1977 during the tour to promote the album 'Lost Without Your Love'. This led to the second half of the tour being completed without Jimmy Griffin. David Gates continued to tour with Mike Botts and Larry Knechtel as 'David Gates and Bread', resulting in a lawsuit brought by Jimmy Griffin, who was a co-owner of the band's name. This was not resolved until 1984.
