Silk + Steel was the second album released by American rock band Giuffria in 1986. It was produced by Pat Glasser, who was at the time also the producer of Giuffria's MCA labelmates Night Ranger. The band covered "I Must Be Dreaming", a Willy DeVille song that went to No. 52 on the Billboard Hot 100. The record's peak position on The Billboard 200 was No. 60 on June 21, 1986.[3] "Love You Forever" was released as the second single but failed to chart on Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart even though they appeared on American Bandstand to promote the single.
