Dream of You is the third studio album by Helen Merrill which was arranged by Gil Evans. The CD reissue includes additional tracks.
The Allmusic review by Stephen Cook awarded the album four stars and said that "On 1955's Dream of You...Merrill found reconciliation, sounding both melodramatic and swinging within Gil Evans' darkly spacious, yet economical arrangements. Suitably, torchy ballads are prominent...The programmatic quality of Merrill's coyly sensual voice and Evans' slightly askew, bubbling reeds and languid rhythm conjure up dramatic, balmy southern scenes á la Tennessee Williams".
