A Dream is an album by Max Romeo, released in 1969.

The album, due to its cover design, is often referred to as A Dream by Max Romeo.[1] Produced by Bunny Lee, it featured Max Romeo's first hit, the lyrically explicit "Wet Dream".[2] Tracks like "Wood Under Cellar", "Wine Her Goosie" and "The Horn" continued the rude theme, though songs such as "Far Far Away" and "Love" were more traditional ballads, the latter made more outstanding through vibrant Rastafari-influenced percussion; "Club Raid" speaks of Romeo’s survival of a punitive police bust.[3]
