"One of the top 50 Out There Albums Of All Time"-Mojo
"Inspired by the aural collage of The Beatles' 'Revolution Number 9,' Bill Holt quit his straight job in 1972 to follow his musical muse, hoarding various electronic gadgets and an acoustic guitar and holing up in his basement. He emerged a year later with Dreamies, one of the finest pieces of experimental pop from the era."-All Music Guide
"Dreamies is ranked #37 on MOJO magazine's 2005 list of the "Top 50 Most Out-There Albums of All Time" (a list that includes The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix, The Velvet Underground, and Miles Davis). This unique album by Bill Holt, first released in 1974, sounded way ahead of its time and became an international cult classic in the following decades.
A perfect example of what was called "head music" at the time, Dreamies consists of two large suites full of Lennon-esque vocals, sound collages, early electronics and proto-sampling.
The perfect marriage between psychedelia, pop, and experimental sounds. Featuring remastered sound and original artwork in hard cardboard sleeve. Includes reproduction of the rare original insert and extra insert with liner notes by Klemen Breznikar (It's Psychedelic Baby) and photos.”
