Steve Wynn Revisits Dream Syndicate

The Dream Syndicate were one of the great bands of  early alternative rock. The bands leader Steve Wynn has continued and has built a sizeable catalogue of great music that he continues releasing and touring today.

Wynn is willing though to embrace his past as well as continue to move forward.

Wynn and his band the Miracle 3 will commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the release of the Dream Syndicate album  “Medicine Show” with 2 shows in New York City and Los Angeles  where they will play the classic album from start to finish for the first  time.   The Miracle 3-Steve’s long-time band of Jason Victor, Dave Decastro and Linda Pitmon-did similar shows for “The Days of Wine and Roses” in 2001.

Despite charting on the Billboard list of top LPs and topping the CMJ singles chart for 2 months, the album was met with mixed reviews in the US when it was first released. The band’s debut album “The Days of Wine and Roses” had been a critical  sensation.   However overseas it was a different story.   “Medicine Show” received the  highest accolades across Europe and the UK (the album made the London  Guardian’s “Top 40 Albums of the First 40 Years of Rock” list in the mid-90s).

“’Medicine Show’ is the weirdest, most idiosyncratic, nastiest, funniest  and most revealing record the Dream Syndicate ever made,” said Wynn in the liner notes from the record’s 1991 reissue.   “It’s also my favourite.”
