'The Dream Academy' is The Dream Academy's eponymous debut album, released in 1985. It was mainly produced by Pink Floyd's David Gilmour and Nick Laird-Clowes.
The most notable track from the album is 'Life in a Northern Town', which was written as a tribute to Nick Drake. It also proved to be their only major chart success, reaching number 15 in the UK Singles Chart and number 7 in the US.
The follow-up single, also from the album, 'The Love Parade' was not received as well as their debut single, reaching number 68 on thr UK Singles Chart and number 36 on the US Billboard Charts, but still received solid radio airplay.
Also of note is the song, 'The Edge of Forever', which plays in a prominent scene during the John Hughes film, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, resulting in many fans of 1980s films becoming more familiar with The Dream Academy's music.

Links Are Dead - I Know
I keep getting Emails from people asking me to re-upload the links and music etc. I think people are just getting to those particular pages so are not reading the reason for the dead links.
So I am putting this in place so hopefully people will read it and stop Emailing me about it.
The reason the links are dead is that my account with Media Fire has been closed with all 11,000 files lost. That is why you can not download the things and No I can not re-upload them.
Eventually I will start doing that again when I have found something suitable. In the meantime this blog will be information only blog.
Thank you all
Michaael
