Hi Bob/Scott,

I don't think I'd ever heard of Rainy Day. I will check them
out; appreciate the links.

Scott:
Since you're a Rainy Day fan & your
original cassette's worn out,  if
you don't happen to have a good digital
version, would a FLAC one be of
interest?
Just recently, I was pleased to
find, at a torrent site, a quality
FLAC file of it, a CD rip from the 1989
Rough Trade CD released 5 years after
the original 1984 vinyl 

L.P., here:
http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/8085415/Rainy_Day_-_Rainy_Day%281984%29%5BFLAC
%5D
I re-upped the same file to a file hosting site where anyone can direct
download it here:
https://mega.co.nz/#!KBtn3J6K!FW8K2TZKrMASByrTd5DxmGM8Ows-jIRhPPqB7QdZ35M
Plus
there's a YouTube upload of the entire CD here:
http://youtu.be/ui2VjVqgM_U
It seems used copies of the L.P. & CD often have
steep prices attached. 
Better to have a nice, free FLAC version, I say!


Re.
the Maxwell's Mazzy
Star show you recorded in 1990, I'm curious about whether
you might still have
that show, & is it shareable, I wonder?
I collect Mazzy
Star show recordings.
Early, pre-1993 Mazzy gigs (i.e. ones from the 1990
tour) seem harder to find.
I've found just a few. Maxwell's 1990 is oneI've
not come across, but would
enjoy hearing.

Yep, that's all
there.  Live at Raji's
should be on everyone's playlist,
along with DoW&R and
3RPT.

Rainy Day,
sfaIk, is hopelessly out of print, and should be in every
household in the
world.

I have played the shit out my only copy on cassette. 
It is now
unlistenable.

Re. both albums, I agree. The Dream Syndicate's "Days of Wine &
Roses" is
excellent. Btw, Is it just coincidence Steve Wynn & Tom Verlaine
both played
Jazzmasters, or that I think I can hear a little Television (as
well as
Velvet
Underground)  influence in the band? Maybe not coincidence!
Wynn even name
checks Tom during a July 24, 1982 recording from The Country
Club, L.A.
show.
In between songs, he says "We saw Tom Verlaine last night [in
San Diego].He
was real good. So, it's been fun."
I must check out Phil's rec.
of  "Live at Raji's".

All  the recorded bands David Roback's been in, Mazzy
Star, Clay Allison,
Opal, & Rain Parade are among my faves, & I much like his
guitar playing,
especially slide.
And he seems to have had a talent for
recruiting & inspiring first rate
female singers to write with & work with,
first Kendra Smith in Clay
Allison/Opal after she left Dream Syndicate as bass
player & occasional
singer, then Hope Sandoval in post-Kendra Opal, & Mazzy
Star.
Roback also  put together a worthwhile album project in 1984, "Rainy
Day",
gathering together musicians & singers from a number of Paisley
Underground
bands: Rain Parade, The Dream Syndicate, The Three O'Clock, The
Bangles, to
record an L.P. of covers of favourite, mostly 1960s, songs; an
album I like
a lot.
