The Dream Syndicate, The Dream Syndicate (Self-Titled), 1982 on Down There Records / Enigma

Another band associated with the Paisely Underground / Paisely Punk movement of the early 80s, Dream Syndicate were Steve Wynn, Kendra Smith, Dennis Duck, and Karl Precoda.

This was their debut EP on Wynn’s own Down There Records label before they signed to Slash in 1982.

My copy, via a private sale, is on red / green Down There labels with “marketed by Enigma” on the label.

At least 4 justices must vote to grant review for the court to hear an appeal. No date has been set for the justices to review or vote on whether to take up Wynn's case.
