Don't mess with doctor dream - Thompson Twins

While working on the follow up to 'Into the gap', Thompson Twins band member Tom Bailey suffered a nervous breakdown. Nile Rodgers was subsequently called in to help finish the album 'Here's to future days', which was released in September 1985.

The first single from the album was 'Don't mess with doctor dream', a track with a strong anti-drug message. The single reached number 15 in the UK singles chart and number 27 in the Dutch Top 40.

My collection: 7" single no. 569
Found: Disco Market, Den Haag, 1986
Cost: 2 guilders
Tracks: 'Don't mess with doctor dream' / 'Big business'
