Mind Adventures is the debut album by British soul singer-songwriter Des'ree. It was released on 17 February 1992 on the Sony Soho Square record label, and features the UK top 20 hit, "Feel So High". The album became Des'ree's first top 40 album, peaking at number 26 on the UK Albums Chart.

Contents

The album was not released in the USA at the time. It got a belated release on 4 April, 1995, after Des'ree's second album I Ain't Movin' had been released there the previous year and the artist was achieving success with the single "You Gotta Be". Since "Feel So High" had been included on the USA edition of I Ain't Movin', the USA edition of Mind Adventures excluded it from its track list.
