From Books and Dreams was the second album from Message, a British and German group, originally released in 1973 on Bacillus/Bellaphon
The group at this time consisted of vocalist/saxist Tom McGuigan (who also played a little Mellotron), future Birth Control bassist Horst Stachelhaus, guitarist Allan Murdoch, and drummer Günther Klingel. The music is not unlike a harder rocking Nektar without organ
