Sweet Dreams is the 1985 soundtrack album to the movie of the same name, starring Jessica Lange and Ed Harris about the life of country music star, Patsy Cline. The soundtrack's music contained all original songs by Patsy Cline.
The album was released following the movie. Patsy Cline's original producer, legendary Nashville producer Owen Bradley produced the soundtrack. Cline's original vocals on half of the selections, including Walking After Midnight were overdubbed on new orchestrations for the film soundtrack. The music was remixed by Doug Crider at Music City Music Hall in Nashville, Tennessee. The overdub recording sessions took place in 1984 at Bradley's Barn in Mount Juliet, Tennessee. Originally released on LP, the soundtrack was later reissued in CD format later in the decade. The lead single from the soundtrack, "Sweet Dreams" was re-released in 1985 after being a big hit for Cline in 1963 and the film's soundtrack album itself charted at #6 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart in 1985.
In April 1987, Sweet Dreams was certified Gold by the RIAA for shipments of over 500,000 copies in the United States.
