Spanish Stroll is a 1977 single by American rock band Mink DeVille, off their debut album Cabretta. Although the lead singer is Willy DeVille, the song features a spoken word section by bassist Rubén Sigüenza, during the break, adding a Latin flavor to it.[3]
"Spanish Stroll" reached number 20 on the UK Singles Chart; it was to be DeVille's only record ever to chart in the UK.[3] In addition, the song went to number 3 in the Netherlands[4] and number 25 in New Zealand.[5]
In 2007, the song was featured in the American drama film In the Land of Women.[6] The song was also used as the ending theme of the 2010 RPG Maker game Space Funeral.
