When imported โ€™80s synth-pop ruled the airwaves, Steve Wynnโ€™s Dream Syndicate lay in thrall to the time-honoured buzz of the Marshall stack. By mid-decade, they were at the forefront of the new American breed that, in turn, helped repopularise the guitar back across the Atlantic. The final studio album, 1988โ€™s Ghost Stories, gets eight add-ons from radio shows, but itโ€™s 1989โ€™s blistering Live At Rajiโ€™s that knocks you sideways. Fully restored across two CDs (now including early classics โ€œTell Me When Itโ€™s Overโ€ and โ€œWhen You Smileโ€), itโ€™s the fret-crunching stomp of a band intuitively grasping the punk/garage dynamic.
