''Dreamtime'' is the debut studio album by The Cult. Released on 10 September 1984, it reached #21 in the UK and was later certified silver by the BPI after having sold 60,000 copies. The first single, "Spiritwalker", reached #1 on the UK Indie Chart. Dreamtime has subsequently been reissued (or in some cases bootlegged) in roughly 30 countries worldwide. Lyrics to the song "Horse Nation" are taken almost verbatim from the book ''Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee''. "Spiritwalker" is a reference to shamanism, while "Dreamtime" is inspired by the Australian Aborigines and 'Butterflies' is a reference to the Hopi ceremonial butterfly dance. "A Flower in the Desert" is a reworking of the Southern Death Cult's song "Flowers in the Forest". The record was originally being produced by Joe Julian, but after recording the drums, the band decided to replace him, and Beggars Banquet suggested John Brand. The record was ultimately produced by Brand, but guitarist Billy Duffy has said that the drum tracks used on the record were those produced by Julian, as band drummer Nigel Preston had become too unreliable by that time. ==Track listing== All songs written by Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy, except where noted. ;Side one # "Horse Nation" – 3:45 # "Spiritwalker" – 3:39 # "83rd Dream" – 3:38 # "Butterflies" – 3:00 # "Go West (Crazy Spinning Circles)" – 3:59 ;Side two # "Gimmick" – 3:33 # "A Flower in the Desert" (Ian Astbury, Barry Jepson, David Burroughs, Haq Qureshi) – 3:42 # "Dreamtime" – 2:47 # "Rider in the Snow" – 3:11 # "Bad Medicine Waltz" – 5:55 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「Dreamtime (The Cult album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
