Music in a Doll's House is the debut album by progressive rock group Family, released in July 1968. The album, which was mainly produced by Dave Mason of Traffic, features a number of complex musical arrangements contributing to its ambitious psychedelic sound.

Winter time, it brings me down
Ice cold winds, snow on the ground
Soon I feel the summer breezes
Watch it as it carefully seizes
Thistle down, send it 'round
Slowly upwards, slowly down
Gently moving, never a sound
Wish that I could hibernate
Go to sleep and never wake
Until the sun comes shining once again
Winter time, it brings me down
Overcoats and scarves thrown 'round
Cold, dark nights, dense wintry gales
Frozen feet in snowy trails
Slowly homeward, trudging through
Wind and rain and hailstorms too
Where's the sun, I wish I knew
Winter time, it brings me down
Ice cold winds, snow on the ground
Winter time, it brings me down
Overcoats and scarves thrown 'round
@PAULLONDEN I like 'Entertainment' better but by a whisker. Hard to beat the one two punch of the chase and mellowing grey, Such a great band and yet so many people are not familiar with their work.

"Doll's house" was one of those albums that foreshadowed the prog rock movement before it officially began(which imo was with King Crimson's debut).
