The Dream Syndicate's debut album, 'The Days Of Wine And Roses', has long been considered a cornerstone release of the early '80s Paisley Underground scene. However, it was more influential than that, and is one of indie-rock's essentials. The original Steve Wynn / Karl Precoda / Kendra Smith / Dennis Duck line-up took seminal '60s rock and filtered it through more modern sounds. In fact, it was Flesh Eaters' front man Chris D., who produced 'The Days Of Wine And Roses', who got it released on Slash Records - one of the premier L.A. labels of the punk rock era.
