Dreams was an American jazz-rock group, which was one of the original prominent bands of the genre in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Dreams selected as their producer, composer and sound engineer, Fred Weinberg, whose work includes albums for Eddie Palmieri, Tito Puente, La Lupe, Mongo Santamaria, Celia Cruz, Illustration (Alan Lorber's group), and Little Anthony.
The album received a full page ad[1] and a favorable review in Billboard Magazine.
Cropper wanted to "help the audience to better understand the group" so in his production he put "funkier, more commercial rhythms behind [the band]" while trying to "keep jazz up front at the same time.
"[3] While Dreams did not achieve the commercial success of either Chicago or Blood Sweat & Tears, they served as a launchpad for eventually prominent jazz fusion artists Billy Cobham, Don Grolnick, and Randy & Michael Brecker (later known as the Brecker Brothers).
