Album Number Two Hundred Forty Eight “Bread and Roses” was a 1976 album by #judycollins 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 by #jamesoppenheim commonly associated with a 1912 garment workers strike in Lawrence, Massachusetts, were balanced with such pop compositions as #eltonjohn ‘s "Come Down in Time", but the album failed to achieve the commercial success of Judith.
