America is the debut studio album by America, released in 1971. It was initially released without "A Horse with No Name", which was released as a single in late 1971. When "A Horse with No Name" became a worldwide hit in early 1972, the album was re-released with that track.

The album went to No. 1 on the Billboard album chart in the United States and stayed there for five weeks.
Sandman is the second track in that album, "Sandman" (long-rumored to be about the United States Navy VQ-2 air squadron formerly based in Rota, Spain).

This song is dedicated to all our Airmen and Flyers of the US Navy.
For their bravery and commitment to our freedom and democracy!!!

Well done Rene! I may have mentioned before that I love the band America. I've seen them several times in concert over the years and they sounded as good the last time I heard them as they did the first time. You've done a cool solo performance of Sandman. Most of America's songs are tailored made for the solo performer and the one's you've done have all been excellent!
