Dream is the fourth album by the duo Captain & Tennille and their final album with A&M Records.
The album was recorded at A&M Recording Studios (Hollywood, California) 1977; A&M Recording Studios "A" 1977; Rumbo Recorders (Captain & Tennille's Private Studio), (San Fernando Valley) 1977; The Record Plant (Los Angeles) 1977; Wally Heider Recording (Hollywood, California) 1977.
After their last two singles released from their prior album failed to enter the Billboard Top 40, two singles released from this album returned them to the Top 40. "You Need a Woman Tonight" peaked at #40, and "You Never Done It Like That" took them back to the Top 10, peaking at #10.
Dream was released in 1978 on A&M records, and included the hit singles "You Never Done It Like That" and "You Need a Woman Tonight". The album was recorded throughout their own studio (Rumbo Recorders). Title track marked the conclusion of a 1940s standards show. "You Never Done It Like That" was originally recorded by Sedaka on his album A Song.
Record World said of "You Never Done It Like That" that "Toni Tennille's semi -sexy vocals are highlighted, driven along nicely by a heavy pop bass line."[1] Record World said that "You Need a Woman Tonight" "has a slight Caribbean beat and is sparked by Toni Tennille's compelling phrasing and the Captain's keyboards."[2] The StarPhoenix called Dream "a strong album, which proves Toni Tennille's vocalizing talents are far-reaching."[3]
