(*) LP originalmente lançado em 1982.

Biografia:

Os primórdios dos anos 80 foram tempos estimulantes para quem gosta do rock americano da costa oeste. Vários grupos novos e ambiciosos apareceram no espaço de poucos meses, obviamente inspirados na sonoridade do término da década sessentista, mas sem deixarem de acrescentar algo essencialmente revigorante ao gênero. O primeiro EP, homônimo, da Dream Syndicate, e o seu disco seguinte, "The Days Of Wine And Roses" (gravado em setembro de 1982), mais do que justificaram a atenção que as bandas do paisley underground (nota minha: subgênero do rock alternativo, com raízes em Los Angeles, Califórnia, EUA, e popular na metade dos anos 80; caracterizava-se pela psicodelia, refinadas harmonias vocais e interação de guitarras) atraíam.

Abrangendo o compositor Steve Wynn (nascido em 21 de fevereiro de 1960, em Los Angeles, Califórnia, EUA; guitarra e vocal), Karl Precoda (guitarra), Kendra Smith (baixo) e Dennis Duck (bateria), a banda escolheu a canção mais refinada do álbum, "Tell Me When It's Over", para o seu primeiro single britânico, emitido através da Rough Trade Records no encerramento de 1983. Após assinar com a A&M Records, a banda lançou "Medicine Show" em 1984. O disco – como seu debute já sinalizara – demonstrou, inegavelmente, a decisiva influência de Lou Reed e Neil Young no grupo.

Àquela altura, Kendra Smith já firmara uma parceria com David Roback na Opal (Smith também lançaria um deslumbrante álbum solo em 1995), tendo sido substituída por Dave Provost (ex-Droogs). "This Is Not The New Dream Syndicate Album... Live!" apresentou o novo baixista, Mark Walton, mas o disco marcou a ruptura com a A&M. A mudança para a Big Time, subsidiária da Chrysalis Records, gerou, em 1987, "Out Of The Grey". Gravado por Wynn, Walton, Duck e o recém-chegado guitarrista Paul B. Cutler, o álbum mostrou a banda com uma faceta mais comercial. Depois de "50 In A 25 Zone", um single de 12", o grupo transferiu-se para a Enigma Records, representada no Reino Unido pela Virgin Records.

Na sequência de "Ghost Stories", saiu, em 1989, "Live At Raji's", o canto do cisne da Dream Syndicate. Mas verdade seja dita: a banda nunca conseguiu ultrapassar a barreira qualitativa do seu estreante disco. Winn partiu para uma carreira solo igualmente aclamada, mas comercialmente inexitosa, além de gravar ocasionalmente com a banda Gutterball. O selo Normal Records, de Pat Thomas, editou, durante os anos 90, algumas excelentes gravações inéditas da Dream Syndicate (The Encyclopedia Of Popular Music. Compiled and edited by Colin Larkin. New York: Omnibus Press, 2007, p. 459; tradução livre do inglês).
