Dawn is the fifth studio album by German rock band Eloy, released in 1976.
It is a concept album conceived by Frank Bornemann and written by Jürgen Rosenthal, an abstract sequel to last year's Power and the Passion.[10] Jamie, the protagonist, has now passed away, and his spirit travels through time and space in search for his beloved Jeanne and the ultimate salvation.
After the release of the previous Eloy album, the band broke up and reformed, with Bornemann as the only original and core member. The new version of Eloy consisted of Bornemann himself on guitar and vocals, Klaus-Peter Matziol on bass, Detlev Schmidtchen on keyboards, and Jürgen Rosenthal on percussion. Dawn is also the first Eloy album to feature a symphonic orchestra.
