4.0 out of 5 stars Sin of omission, May 24, 2005

A valiant try at a worthy "best of" collection. With 22 tracks, there's no excuse for omitting "Heaven Stood Still." But any effort to get these other 22 great songs into people's ears is an effort worth commending. If you don't know Willie DeVille, begin with this one, then quickly buy the recent re-issue of Le Chat Bleu.

Prior to this year I couldn't have named one song by Mink Deville. I happened to pick up a punk compilation one day which had "Spanish Stroll" as one of the tracks. Then I was hooked. The group was early on identified with the punk movement because of their performances at various punk venues. But Mink Deville has no ties to the Ramones or the Velvet Underground. This is essential rock n' roll and smooth ballads. Willie Deville's vocals and the instrumentation introduce a bluesy Spanish flavor with even an occasional accordion thrown in the mix.

I was so impressed with this disk that I went out and bought the two CD set "Willie Deville In Berlin" which I would also highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Real Soul Singer, January 7, 2003

This review is from: Cadillac Walk / Mink Deville Collection (Audio CD)

This is an outstanding collection of songs ranging from gritty rockers to lovely ballads by a terrific singer. Fans of (early) Springsteen and Southside Johnny will love this stuff.
