Last album = "Judith" (1975)
This album = "Bread and Roses" (1976)
Next album = "So Early in the Spring" (1977)"Bread and Roses" was a 1976 album by
Judy Collins that attempted to merge the singer's political convictions with the commercial success of the previous year's "Judith". Political statements like the title song, originally a poem byJames Oppenheim commonly associated with a 1912 garment workers strike in Lawrence,Massachusetts , were balanced with such pop compositions asElton John 's "Come Down in Time", but the album failed to achieve the commercial success of "Judith".Track listing
