Limited Edition Steve Wynn 45 Available Now – First Release in Euclid Sessions Series

ST. LOUIS: Euclid Records is proud to announce the arrival of the debut 7” 45 rpm release in the Euclid Sessions series, “John Coltrane Stereo Blues Pts. 1 and 2” by Steve Wynn and the Miracle 3. Recorded live in Euclid Records last November, this single has been eagerly anticipated by those who were in attendance. This release, like all future efforts in the series, will be strictly limited to 300 copies. $1 for each one pressed will be donated to the New Orleans Musicians Relief Fund (NOMRF) to benefit musicians displaced or suffering loss of equipment in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Euclid Records is located at 601 East Lockwood in Webster Groves, MO.

Steve Wynn first recorded “John Coltrane Stereo Blues” when he was in the Dream Syndicate for their second LP, “Medicine Show,” back in 1984. Since then, it has been revived in a number of live contexts, but this is the first time the song has been available on record or disc since the Dream Syndicate disbanded. The Miracle Three includes Linda Pitmon on drums, Dave DeCastro on bass, and Jason Victor on lead guitar.

The record itself is available on colored vinyl, though these will be limited to those who subscribe to the series online. Each copy comes with a gorgeous silk screen print, individually signed and numbered by artist Phil Huling. There is also a delightful cardboard sleeve designed by the geniuses at Firecracker Press.

The 45s will be sold exclusively through the websites of Euclid Records (www.euclidrecords.com) and NOMRF (www.nomrf.org). The price for this debut release is $7.99.
