is a brilliant track, and a tour de force live. You should try to catch him when he comes over in the autumn because the Miracle 3 are a cracking live act.

As to where to start with the Dream Syndicate, get the album Live At Raji's.

For his solo stuff, the Tucson trilogy are the best so far - Here Come The Miracles, Static Transmission, and Tick Tick Tick. They're all terrific.

He also happens to be one of the nicest men in the business, always very friendly and chatty before and after gigs.

He does have a massive catalogue and I'm only acquainted with a small part of it. However there is a compilation, put together by Steve himself called Pick Of The Litter, which may be a good place to start.
I also love, that should be LOVE, the album by Danny and Dusty (Dusty being Steve's nickname) called The Lost Weekend. It's loose but rocks like a mutha.
I'd also like to sat what a thoroughly nice chap Steve is. Many years ago I saw him supporting Chuck Prophet and got talking to him after the gig. There was no muso ego; he chatted away to me, my friend and a couple of other guys until the management chucked us out.
Buy, buy, buy!

Steve is doing a European tour, but only a single date in the UK.
He's playing The Lexington (where have I heard about that venue recently?) on Tuesday November 23rd with his band The Miracle 3.

that has been said above. I have a good proportion of his recordings and haven't been disappointed once. I've just checked my itunes library and I have 160 songs on there. I haven't been on his website recently but he used to regularly put up free downloads. And a great big ditto for Chuck Prophet as well

the one who owns half the casinos (casini?) in Las Vegas?

never heard of him before. Just had a listen on Spotify. Excellent.

By way of a thankyou

Good news for fans and a chance to hear for those who don't know him to sample new music from Steve:
