From 1987 comes Closer Together, the third studio release from the Montreal new wave/ prog rock band The Box.  With three hits (Crying out loud for love, Ordinary People & Closer Together) from this record, it was their most successful to date and eventually went platinum in Canada.  On Alert records BD-1005.  Here is Without Love:





Box of Frogs formed in 1983 from 3 former Yardbird members (Jim McCarty, Chris Dreja & Paul Samwell-Smith) along with John Fiddler.
A Blues Rock album, with many talented musicians; additional musicians on this album Jeff Beck, Mark Feltham, Rory Gallagher among others. Some good songs, but not a stand out album considering the people involved in making it. I do like this song, especially the harmonica.
Back Where I Started:



The first compilation album by Bread, released in 1973 on Elektra EKS-75056, The Best of Bread.  Soft Rock/ Folk style album with hits from their previous 5 albums.  Has a slow side and a fast(er) side, so depending on your mood...
From the slow side here is probably one of their biggest hits Baby i'm-a want you, followed by truckin' from side 2:
