''Dreams Come True'' is the third official album release by singer and songwriter Judee Sill. A double CD released on Water Records in 2005, the album mainly contains work originally recorded in the seventies as potential material for a third album on Asylum Records. A combination of Sill's health and drug problems and lack of interest in the market prevented the completion of the album in the seventies but a renewed interest in her work led to the release of this set, which also includes film footage from 1973. ==Songs== Despite the lack of commercial success for Sill's two albums ''Judee Sill'' and ''Heart Food'', which led to the end of her contract to Asylum Records and the end of her association with David Geffen, Sill's music was critically acclaimed and she continued to write songs. Sill recorded early versions for a planned third album, ''Dreams Come True'', in 1974 at Mike Nesmith's studios. Songs like "That's the Spirit" and "Things are Lookin' Up" show a more carefree approach in comparison to Sill's earlier songs, especially considering her frustration at her lack of commercial success. Due to this different style, it has been said that these songs are not as expertly written as those on her first two albums. However, from a musically theoretical viewpoint, it can be argued that these compositions are no less complex. The songs remained unfinished, but Jim O'Rourke undertook the task of mixing the material. He said: "I never thought to try and equal those (earlier recordings) except in spirit, how she seemed to like the colour of her instruments. I wanted the music to stand on its own and to be about nothing other than itself. And the moment of soloing up Judee's vocal track was, frankly, eerie. . . a serious thing! Not to be taken lightly." () The second disc is made up of rarities and home demos, including one of Sill's earliest songs, "Dead Time Bummer Blues," written about her experience in jail, which was recorded by the Los Angeles garage band the Leaves. It also features an early version of "Things are Lookin' Up," entitled "Sunny Side Up Luck," performed by Sill on clavinet in 1973. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dreams Come True (Judee Sill album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
