About this album
Dream of Life is a late-career high point that finds Patti Smith turning personal conviction into direct, galvanising rock. Released in 1988 after an extended break, the album marked her return with a more polished sound while preserving the intensity and literary force that defined her work. Co-produced with Fred “Sonic” Smith, it balances hard-edged guitars, reflective writing and a clear sense of purpose, most famously on “People Have the Power”, one of Smith’s signature songs and a lasting anthem of resistance. The record broadened her audience and reaffirmed her status as one of rock’s most vital voices.
