Details:
âFallinâ Idol" establishes "Winkle's" credentials as a serious songwriter.

The intensely personal lyrics on âFallen Idolâ led one Philadelphia music critic to note; âThe first two cuts, âFallinâ Idol,â and âWho Do You Think I Am,â told me more about Don Lee Van Winkle than Iâd ever been able to glean over all the years heâs been a part of Phillyâs music scene. He dedicates the collection to his 4 year old son. Very few fathers would be as honest with their children.â

âI wouldnât play the the songs on âFallinâ Idolâ at a Bar Mitzvah,â Winkle recently joked.
