Horse Of A Different Color is the follow-up to the 1995 album Loup Garou. On this CD Willy Deville returns to his roots. The cheerful Latin pop has made way for American roots music such as blues, soul and a touch of R&B. In addition to five of his own songs, Deville sings compositions by Ry Cooder and John Hiatt (Across The Borderline), Fred McDowell (Goin 'Over The Hill), Sono Bono's hit
