15 Minutes (Steve Wynn’s band prior to The Dream Syndicate)

Background

In 1981, Steve Wynn formed the trio 15 Minutes in Davis, California, with two members of Alternate Learning, bass player Carolyn O'Rourke and drummer Eric Landers. With 15 Minutes, Wynn wrote and produced the single "That's What You Always Say," b/w "Last Chance For You," which he engineered with Alternate Learning's frontman, Scott Miller. The A-side, "That's What You Always Say," was later covered by The Dream Syndicate. The original versions by 15 Minutes appear as bonus tracks on the 2001 Rhino Records remastered CD of Days of Wine and Roses.
