product # bvcd 3482 (love gift) or Love Gift is the third and final studio album by the Christian alternative rock band Breakfast with Amy, released in 1992. [1] Love Gift was the band's last release on Blonde Vinyl Records, and ended up being one of the last releases by any record label owned by Michael Knott. The album is considered a concept album with random audio inserts, short phone conversations, instrumental jams, and pre-song warm ups, as well as two self-described "dramas". Also included were two live songs from a previous tour. Musically, Love Gift continues with the punk/alternative rock sounds of their previous release Dad , and could be considered their most progressive album to date.
The original version of Love Gift was to be released on the Vox Vinyl label. The Vox Vinyl version of the album (most cuts were re-recorded for the Blonde Vinyl Records album) remains unreleased.
All songs written by Breakfast with Amy.
The track listing on the back of the album omits tracks 1, 3, 6, and 15.
