When the vinyl version was released in 1986, "Treacherous" was the first career-spanning Neville Brothers compilation. The vinyl version includes the hit, Parlo version of "Tell It Like It Is," while the CD version includes the live recording of that track (from the "Neville-ization" LP.) The CD version also adds the bonus tracks, "Every Day," "How Can I Help But Love You" and "Gossip."

An excellent collection when released, it stands up well today and is still worth seeking out (even though much of it was later issued on Hip-O's "Neville Brothers | Gold" and "Aaron Neville | Gold" compilations.
