Mink DeVille Spanish Stroll (Live) HD

Willy DeVille (August 25, 1950 -- August 6, 2009) was an American singer and songwriter. During his thirty-five year career, first with his band Mink DeVille (1974--1986) and later on his own, Deville created original songs rooted in traditional American musical styles. He worked with collaborators from across the spectrum of contemporary music, including Jack Nitzsche, Doc Pomus, Dr. John, Mark Knopfler, Allen Toussaint, and Eddie Bo. Latin rhythms, blues riffs, doo-wop, Cajun music, strains of French cabaret, and echoes of early-1960s uptown soul can be heard in DeVille's work.
Mink DeVille was a house band at CBGB, the historic New York City nightclub where punk rock was born in the mid-1970s. DeVille helped redefine the Brill Building sound. In 1987 his song "Storybook Love" was nominated for an Academy Award. After his move to New Orleans in 1988, he helped spark the roots revival of classic New Orleans R&B. His soulful lyrics and explorations in Latin rhythms and sounds helped define a new musical style sometimes called "Spanish-Americana".
DeVille died of pancreatic cancer in the late hours of August 6, 2009 in a New York hospital. He was 58 years old.

I was at a Mink de Ville concert at the Rainbow in London in about 1979. He and his band were brilliant. I have seen a lot of the top bands and they were as good as any I have seen. The sound was crystal clear. The singing and playing absolutely perfect.

[@trailingarm63]

Hard to imagine how you could get more style into a three-minute song. Masterful!

I have loved thus song for years..since it hit the charts..here in SCOTLAND, UK..

[@jonimoroni7475]

Such a great song with really great arrangement, a hidden gem really. This is actually NOT live, but the equivalent of a music video from that time period, with the musicians playing along with the recorded version of the song.

[@scoots8519]

Mr DeVille and the band are great but the back up singers are fantastic also!

[@davidfry7390]

He called them his 2 bit hookers cos there were 2 of them
