1980 Switch – This Is My Dream
This Is My Dream is the fourth album by R&B group Switch. It was released in 1980. This is also the only album during their tenure with Motown not to feature input from Jermaine Jackson; they produced this album themselves.
Following a slump with the subpar performance of their third album, Reaching for Tomorrow, released earlier that year, the group rebounded with this effort. It included the top-ten hit “Love Over And Over Again”, which Bobby DeBarge wrote with his sister and future DeBarge member Bunny DeBarge.
