Inside the Dream Syndicate, Vol. I: Day of Niagara or simply Day Of Niagara is a 1965 album by the minimalist music group the Theatre of Eternal Music, aka The Dream Syndicate. Contributors include former Velvet Underground bassist John Cale, original Velvet Underground drummer Angus Maclise, Composers La Monte Young and Tony Conrad, and Marian Zazeela.

Overview

Consisting of a single half-hour track, Day of Niagara catches a glimpse of The Dream Syndicate in the prime of their short-lived but intriguing collaborative tenure. Recorded and forgotten, it was not released until several years later as a bootleg recording. La Monte Young threatened legal action on the release, as there had been no written agreement on who actually owned the rights to the music.

As it was released as a bootleg tape, the recording quality nocibably suffers.
