'WHEN I DREAM'-JACK CLEMENT (1978-Elektra Records Version, VINYL).avi

ALPHA CENTAURY TREASURE!!
Welcome to one of the true pearls in music...
The best version of this beautiful ballad written by Sandy Mason Theoret. Willie Nelson comes close, but this is IT !!

From the 1978 vinyl-album on Elektra Records... Well.. just E N J O Y !!!
THE ALBUM IS A CLASSIC, Start to Finish... so proud to have it in my collection, near mint, too :)) !

This Jack Clement album features the original version of his song 'Gone Girl' , which was picked up by the Dutch singer Jack Jersey too, who made it one of his biggest hits.
With the album being fresh for Clement he patched 'Gone Girl' on to his longtime friend Johnny Cash, too. It became the titlesong for one of the two 1978 Cash-album.

Jack Clement produced the Johnny Cash album 'Gone Girl' too. So it was no coincidence that the Allen Reynolds song 'It'll be her' appeared on both the albums.

Jack Clement was always more a producer than a recording artist. He started producing in the early days of Sun Records in Memphis and was sitting behind the recordingboard for many many sessions in those days.

Jack Clement has also written lots of songs: some of Cash's his earliest hits like 'Ballad of a teenage Queen', 'Down the Street to 301' and 'Guess things happen that way' . He also wrote 'It'll be me' for Jerry lee Lewis and 'Let's all help the cowboys sing the blues' for Waylon Jennings, amongst others).

In 1982 he pitched another song from this 1978-album to Johnny Cash (when he produced yet another Johnny Cash-album) namely 'We must believe in magic' for release on the 1982 'The Adventures of Johnny Cash'.

Easily the best version by far of this beautiful song. While there are some nice recordings of the song by other artists no one gets even close to him singing it.

[fernhollow1928]

A eighty-three year lifetime in which to dream and memories of dreams come true. Blessed be the One who let it be.

[fernhollow1928]

A lifetime of dreams realized, and memories of an eighty-three years lifetime in which to dream. Blessed be the one who may it be.

Some songs you just never tire of . This is most certainly is one of them .

[kenmetalman]

This is music that touches the soul

[MegaGrabol]

Just a wonderful tender song by a great reader of songs- Jack Clement

Truly moving version, but I can't make my mind up if it is better than the also beautiful version by Foster & Allen.  Love them both!
