    Saw Mink deVille live in a little upstairs club above Yonge street, near the gay ghetto in downtown Toronto in 1984. That show gave me the music for the rest of my life.

    You will never be forgotten old friend
    Despite that you have gone on a journey of no return,
    You will always be remember by millions
    Millions that were blessed through you
    I was once blessed through you

    Willy DeVille: America's best-kept musical "secret" for FAR too long. Sadly, the world knew the unique genius of this once in a lifetime artist,long before his own Country. It truly was only after his passing that "WE" finally began to realize our profound loss. May you find the Rest & Peace that eluded you so often here.... Willy D. You are deeply missed & may we meet at some point, "Across the Borderline".

      Willy DaVille was a comet blazing across our sky. He knew exactly who he was and what his talents were and where they could take him. He lived an extraordinary life and then flamed out far too soon but never forgotten

      He was no secret in the world. I listened to him when I was 16 (Norway). Scandinavians love country-music. It has melted into our musical culture. I think most people feel that American music is really Norwegian :D

    Bloody Hell! This is excellent! I stumbled upon Will DeVille about an hour ago. I am blown away!
    I'll be 74 in a few weeks, and I've listened to MUCH music in my years - I play bass in blues and rock cover bands, and, with a buddy, have written some songs - but have never, to my utter mortification, heard of Willy, nor, obviously, listened to him.
    I'm in South Africa, so that can explain much!
    I don't know anybody who is familiar with Willy DeVille / Mink DeVille.
    I'm going to change that!

    Willy DeVille was a genius, but this track (especially) also shows the benefit of having a great sideman. So often they are underrated. I saw Robin Bullock acting as sideman to Tom Paxton on his farewell tour and he was another example of their importance.

    This is a gorgeous song. Love the peace on your face and in your voice.
    We lost a great one when you took your voice and left us.
    I am in awe of your music~
