About The Record:

Dream Street Rose continues in the style of Summertime Dream (1976) and Endless Wire (1978), with a mix of faster-paced, country style songs and introspective folk ballads. The album peaked at No. 58 on the country chart and at No. 60 on the pop chart. The title song reached No. 80 on the country singles chart (No. 1 in Canada). Lightfoot's penchant for seafaring songs was again evident with three songs featuring an ocean theme. The album also featured a recorded version of The Auctioneer which had been a concert staple for Lightfoot. It was one of the first albums recorded digitally.
