Lynn Blakey - Dreams Are Lovers: A Retrospective [Vinyl LP]

Dreams Are Lovers is a career-spanning collection from beloved North Carolina singer and songwriter Lynn Blakey, who passed away earlier this year. Known as the inspiration for The Replacements' "Left of the Dial" and for her work with Tres Chicas and Let's Active, her own songwriting was long hidden in plain sight.

Curated by Chris Stamey and newly remastered, it ranges from Glory Foundation rockers to Americana with Tres Chicas and dream-rock with R.E.M.'s Mike Mills. A Record Store Day Black Friday 2026 release.
