Original Members of Mink DeVille Recall Their Years With The Group
This is Part One of a two part podcast in which the original members of the group Mink DeVille, in a conference call, reminisce about their years with the group, led by singer Willy DeVille. It traces the group’s beginnings in San Francisco, their cross country trip to New York City to become a part of the burgeoning CBGB’s scene, their signing to Capitol records which resulted in a hit record in Europe, and the eventual descent and dissolution of the group via a month of chaotic Hollywood recording sessions under the helm of “Lonely Surfer” Jack Nitzsche.
