Reviews
Trouser Press called the album "another successful exploration of New Orleans' musical heritage; the re-energized DeVille holds his own while sharing the stage and the spotlight with an even more impressive array of Crescent City luminaries." Randy Krbechek said about Big Easy Fantasy, "For my money, I'd have released this album as either an all-live set, or an all-studio recording. However, I'm not complaining too loudly—DeVille's a great talent, and any serving from him is richly welcomed."

I am tired of hearing the word “culture” used so wantonly. I am tired of essays that let no guilty author escape quotation.”

Let Spades be trumps! she said, and trumps they were.”
