Under-promoted, under-appreciated and ultimately under-sold, 'Cabretta' is a sleeper masterpiece that sounds as good today as it did in 1977. Like all truly great rock and roll, the songs mix fantasy and longing... 'Venus of Avenue D' and 'Spanish Stroll' find their romance in the street, and both walk that line between lust and longing, in the feeling of getting turned on by somebody. A mix of tough talking bravado, street-walking struts and sweet nostalgic ballads. 'Gunslinger' features Punk's attack while 'Spanish Stroll' boasts a pronounced R & B/Latin groove. Produced by Jack Nitzche, the album is as lean and sharp as it's front man. A single from the album, 'Spanish Stroll' became a top 20 hit.
