Before forming Bread, Gates and Griffin had both worked with Royer's previous band, The Pleasure Fair, with Gates producing and arranging the band's 1967 album, The Pleasure Fair. Gates, Griffin, and Royer joined together in 1968 and signed with Elektra Records, choosing the name Bread in 1969. Bread'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 #127 on the Billboard 200. Songwriting on the album was split evenly between Gates and the team of Griffin-Royer. Jim Gordon, a top session player, accompanied the band on drums for the album.
Bread became a quartet with their second album, On the Waters (peaking at #12 on the Billboard 200), bringing in Botts as drummer. This time their efforts quickly established Bread as a major act with the Billboard Hot 100 #1 hit "Make It With You" in 1970. "Make It With You" would be Bread's only number one hit on the Hot 100.
