Dreams - Dreams

NEWLY REMASTERED - FULL BOOKLET WITH LYRICS AND PICS / BONUS CD WITH 10 TRACKS (9 UNRELEASED) / NEW COVER BY MARK WILKINSON - Dreams was founded by keyboarder Todd Loizzo and some of his like-minded high school friend's hallway the 80s. Having a father who was first lead vocalist of American Breed and then owner of a recording studio, it was written in the stars that Todd would start a band of his own. Within a year, Dreams not only played in and around Chicago, but at many college-s throughout the state of Illinois. This way they built a sizeable following, which was enough for local label Broker Records to sign them. Strangely enough though, Broker only released the stuff the guys had written/recorded on cassette, at the time a popular format in the States, because a lot of Americans used to listen to music on the road. Several thousand cassette tapes were sold and the band went out to play at some of L.A.'s clubs located in the infamous Sunset Strip. Sadly enough: when they started showcasing for various records labels, Nirvana and the likes began to take over the market and not a single record company was interested in Dreams anymore. But because they still had that local following, the band went on until halfway the 90s before they really knew that there was no future for them. Unbelievable, because what you will listening is of such a huge quality! If this material had been released hallway the 80's, Dreams would have been a mega act! The music on this self-titled comprises 12 AOR pearls written in the period 1988-1991 that were only available as downloads before AOR Heaven released it on CD in 2013 though AOR Heaven Classix. This item was out of print very quickly and now it's back with a second CD with 9 bonus tracks never released and a new cover artwork by the famous Mark Wilkinson (Marillion, Fish, Iron Maiden, Koritni, The Darkness). A great melodic rock album.
