Reissue of 1982 Debut Full-Length Vinyl LP Endorsed by the Entire Band!
Includes Vinyl Reissue of Original, Long Out of Print 4-Song 12" EP!
Plus an Exact Facsimile of Steve Wynn's Rare 15 Minutes 7" Single!
An exceptional early '80s guitar-powered gem, remastered in full. Also includes the band's debut indie EP and both tracks from main protagonist Steve Wynn's earlier combo, 15 Minutes.
Central to the hugely influential Paisley Underground scene of the early 1980s that spawned Green On Red, The Bangles, Long Ryders and Rain Parade. With a nod to the Velvet Underground, Quicksilver Messenger Service and Dylan, packed into an incendiary slow-burn punk fuse, The Days of Wine and Roses is a glorious, upbeat sprawl, everything that rock 'n' roll should be.
'The Days Of Wine And Roses' is as timelessly potent as the records that inspired it.
While they would remain an interesting band to the end, The Days of Wine and Roses captures them at their peak, and it's essential listening for noise guitar fiends and anyone interested in '80s alternative rock.
One of the most lasting alternative rock albums made during an explosive time for left-of-centre music.
