Collected is a compilation of Willy DeVille's tenure as the charismatic frontman of Mink DeVille, and his later solo work. Featuring "Spanish Stroll", "Demasiado Corazon" & "Hey Joe", this 2LP set includes an insert with liner notes by ex-band members and DeVille's inner circle. Containing one LP called "The Mink DeVille Years" and the second disc "The Willy DeVille Years", this 27-song collection is the definitive document of his 35-year career.
Mink DeVille is one of the New York Punk movement founding bands, while having the distinct honor of being CBGB's house band. Of their debut Cabretta "Spanish Stroll" and "Return To Magenta" (produced by Jack Nitzsche) are included in this compilation. After their third album Le Chat Bleu, Willy was the only original member left. When the sixth Mink DeVille album was released, Willy initiated his solo career with Miracle, produced by Mark Knopfler, followed by nine more solo albums. The 2008 Pistola was his final studio album, which came out a year before his passing.
