Steve Wynn's goal for his second solo LP, Dazzling Display, was for the songs to have a cinematic feel, and in turn for those songs to give the record the pacing of a fine film. This resulting audio film that Wynn has created is lyrically and musically dense, owing to the cinematic and literary works that sparked his writing. Amoreposted: 0000-00-00Q
4 stars out of 5 - "...Steve Wynn in fine songwriting form. His 80's band The Dream Syndicate specialized in cerebral yet visceral 6-string laments and, solo, he was more than able to further this tradition..."posted: 2000-05-01Spin
Recommended - "..Wynn's sweeping thematic and sonic range demands more of his songs than many of them can deliver...Wynn leaves no doubt that he's left his pure American guitar-rock days behind.."posted: 1992-06-01Rolling Stone
3.5 Stars - Good Plus - "..he sounds exhilaratingly close to having found his true voice...a shimmering pop album.."posted: 1992-07-09
