The Vinyl Countdown # 1476

Mink DeVille, Where Angels Fear To Tread (1983)

It felt like a Mink DeVille afternoon, a couple of weeks ago – but then, when isn’t the right time for Mink DeVille? So this album came out – my first time hearing it in a long time (in fact I’m new to owning the album, it was a recent second-hand vinyl purchase). Been newly hooked (again) on the world/s of Willy DeVille this year (and last). And this album has been getting a few spins of late. And I like it a lot. That simple really. Have you had a Mink DeVille afternoon recently? If you haven’t I thoroughly recommend. If you have – I’d say have another…(I’m about to).

Sample Track: Are You Lonely Tonight?

The Vinyl Countdown is a document of every LP I listen to, brand new discoveries and old-old favourites; extremely pre-loved, previously abandoned or with the shrink-wrap having just been removed it’s all here at The Vinyl Countdown
