Dreams From 1968 was a Dublin showband formed in 1968, fronted by John Farrell. The group is notable for early lineup member Eric Bell, who would later join Thin Lizzy. They gained traction in Ireland with hits like I Will See You There and The Casatschok, and released a string of Dolphin singles between 1968 and 1971. The band’s story also includes a rebranding into Freedom around 1970.
