The Best Of The Del Fuegos : The Slash Years by The Del Fuegos - DeepRiffs

COMPILATION

This compilation of the best material that the Del Fuegos made for Slash Records is an interesting mix of their potent roots rock. Much like many other underappreciated '80s rockers, this band released a wealth of good material that can be discovered through this album. Although it is preferable to get the albums that this material came from, this is the perfect sampler for someone looking to get into the band. Featuring music from The Longest Day, Boston, Mass., and Stand Up, this showcases most of their career. Unlike similar compilations that have done contemporaries like the Violent Femmes and the Replacements injustice, this album features the Del Fuegos at their creative high point. High-energy anthems sit comfortably next to their country-style ballads, and their Springsteen-meets-Motörhead image comes across perfectly. Fans of the Del Fuegos do not have to rush out to get this, but any curious music fan who has not heard the band should give this a listen. ~ Bradley Torreano
