Description

In Dreams is the third record from Roy Orbison on Monument Records, recorded at its studio in Hendersonville, Tennessee and released in 1963. The album is named for the hit 45rpm single. In 2004 Rolling Stone named the song In Dreams one of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

Half of the cuts on In Dreams were recorded during the sessions for Lonely And Blue. Orbisons voice was never better than on this recording. The heights he reaches on Lonely Wine, the swaggering Country and R&B of Blue Avenue and My Prayer are simply mind- blowing. The emotion and deep atmospherics of the tunes here reflect Fosters sophistication, but also Orbisons willingness to develop himself as a singer and as a persona.
