Heat, Dust And Dreams is a studio album by South African artist Johnny Clegg and his band Savuka, released in 1993, produced by Hilton Rosenthal, co-produced by Bobby Summerfield.

The album would be the final work of the band Savuka. It was made in honor of member Dudu, who had been assassinated in the last years of the apartheid. Most songs of album are heavily influenced by the end of this dark period of South African history. These Days, When the system has fallen, In My African Dream and Your Time Will Come all express hope for the future, while songs like The Promise and Foreign Nights talk of the problems people still have to face. It is the only Savuka album to receive the same degree of critical acclaim as the classic Juluka albums like Universal Men, African Litany, Work for All and Scatterlings
