Customer Review Superb country album It's a pure country album where the despairing cracked voice of Broken English was first displayed. This album was first released in 1977 as Dreaming My Dreams and then reissued as Faithless the following year. And it's a brilliant album, very good selection of material. Virtually every track is hit single material, from Dreaming My Dreams (a sad ballad), Jackie DeShannon's lilting Vanilla Olay, the energetic All I Wanna Do In Life and Jessie Colter's sorrowful I'm Not Lisa. Barry Reynolds, who always inspires her best work (like on Vagabond Ways), wrote or co-wrote 4 of the songs here. My fave track of all is That Was The Day (Nashville), a wonderful weepie that e. g. Dolly Parton could never sing [That was the day/When the coke came to Nashville/That was the day/All my dreams turned to ashes/Aint it funny, after all I've survived. "] Faithfull fans who are not prejudiced against country music, and all country music fans will love this. . .
