There was no one like the American romantic, Willy DeVille. From CBGB street corner punk to New Orleans soulster to the voice of American Roots music on the continent of Europe for 3 decades, he was the most unique artist of his time. No one inhabited as many musical styles and personas. Everything about him was a work of art. He sold a million records and was respected deeply by his peers from Ben E. King to Bob Dylan. His songs were anthems to the heart broken and the downtrodden. Yet almost no one knows anything about him, where he came from or who he loved. That is the mystery of Willy DeVille.
