Album Notes & Community Reviews

Helmed by the legendary Jack Nitzsche, 'Coup de gr芒ce' finds Mink DeVille steering away from their CBGB origins toward a lush, heavily orchestrated vision of romantic rock and roll. The project embraces the timeless warmth of traditional rhythm and blues, heavily anchored by Willy DeVille's gravelly, streetwise vocal performances.
