After a brief hiatus, Wynn, Duck and Walton joined with Paul B. Cutler (of the proto-Goth 45 Grave) to form the final version of The Dream Syndicate; they recorded two more studio albums, Out Of The Grey (1986), produced by Cutler, and Ghost Stories (1988), produced by Elliot Mazer (producer also of several Neil Young albums, including Harvest and Time Fades Away). A live album, Live at Raji's, was recorded (also by Mazer) before Ghost Stories but released afterward. There is disagreement among fans as to which lineup was the best, but in every permutation the band produced guitar-driven rock music at a time when Lou Reed, David Bowie, Miles Davis, and many others were experimenting with drum machines.
Posthumous releases include 3 1/2; The Lost Tapes 1985-1988, a collection of unreleased studio sessions, and The Day Before Wine and Roses, a live radio performance recorded just prior to the release of the band's first album.
Steve Wynn has continued on as a solo artist. Mark Walton went on to play with the Continental Drifters. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream_SyndicateSzeretnél saját DOMAINt ingyen?

Dream Syndicate: Steve Wynn, Karl Precoda, Kendra Smith, Dennis Duck
This is the original line-up on their first trip to the East Coast after the release of “Days of Wine and Roses.”
I deejayed at Maxwell’s so I could set-up in the deejay/sound booth, but with a 6-channel board (8-channels minus one broken and one for the deejay mixer) soundboard recordings were out of the question. I would unplug my Nikko cassette deck from home and lug over to the club. I never did buy my own mic’s… just used whatever spares might be lying around (with decidedly mixed results). This is one of the better-sounding tapes I ever captured and I had a few things going in my favor; the mic’s were stationary, the power source was constant and the band had good equipment and didn’t play too loud.
I was really excited about seeing the Dream Syndicate and it was a great night. There had been a big blizzard the day before and there was a foot-and-a-half of snow on the streets of Hoboken. I don’t think the band expected people to come out and see them with weather like that, but Maxwell’s had a local walking distance crowd and the show was reasonably well-attended… the New York fans probably stayed home.
They played two sets that night, which was unusual at Maxwell’s, but is great news as far as this recording goes. None of the material repeats. I can’t recall why they did two sets, but I’m guessing that the opening band cancelled because of the blizzard. At the beginning of the second set that’s deep-voiced me responding to Steve Wynn’s enquiry about the stage lighting and soundman Ira Kaplan confirming, “Yeah, behind the drums.” This is back in 1983… Yo La Tengo’s international acclaim was still but a glint in Georgia and Ira’s eyes.
Please support the artist by buying the records and going to the concerts.
