Bread says he isn't surprised when people aren't familiar with the work the group did from the mid-80s to the early 90s, because of the independent nature of the labels involved. It's just that whenever you're not hooked up with the major labels, your music don't get played. It don't get that exposure. These are songs that basically nobody know that they are out there. We really give thanks to Jah for seeing that reggae music is getting a little bit of the play right now.
More people are aware of reggae music right now than they did before.
We still a long way from where we want to be, but it's better than it was. Like many artists who cut their teeth in the seventies, Bread is thankful yet not surprised to see the old style of roots reggae being once again respected. Right now the roots rhythm has resurged. The powers that be weren't really exposing this part of Jamaican music. It goes around, and it comes around,' and we knew that soon people are going to be turned off of this whole heap of crap.
