Spirit - The 12 Dreams of Doctor Sardonicus - When I Touch You

Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus is an album released by the psychedelic rock ensemble Spirit. Produced by David Briggs, who is best known for his work with Neil Young, and whom they chose on Young's recommendation. The original LP was released in 1970 by Epic shortly before the original group disbanded.

This diverse yet cohesive effort is a sci-fi-based, loose concept album. The album's second song is the key track "Nature's Way", the most notable hit (along with "I've Got a Line on You" #28 in Canada) the band would ever produce. "Mr. Skin" also became a hit single in the U.S., three years after the album's release. The album also includes several other less well-known tunes which are considered to have had an impact on the genre of experimental rock in the United States.

17 and trippin' on 4 way orange sunshine...gosh...this brings back the days of playing chess (when the men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go) for real and burning candles, watching them melt...or watching the cotton clouds while lying on the grass...trying not to have a rush when talking to mom and trying like heck to get out of the house before she realized...watching the snow on the tv...oh my goodness the 70's rocked!!! Thanks for the dream...

Still a major favorite all these years later. The other lasting albums are Exile on Main Street and Blows Against the Empire. But 12 Dreams is still my No.1 of all time.
