Each word's a beat of my heart - Mink DeVille

In 1983, the rock band Mink DeVille released their fifth album 'Where angels fear to tread'. Mink DeVille as a rock group had effectively ceased to exist as a band; only lead singer Willy DeVille remained from the original band. For this album, Willy DeVille reached deeper into his Latin roots, even recording a salsa number, 'Demisado Corazon.'

This single, 'Each word's a beat of my heart', reached number 89 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 12 in the Netherlands.

My collection: 7" single no. 1102
Found: All that music, Leiden, November 11, 1989
Cost: 3 guilders
Tracks: 'Each word's a beat of my heart' / 'River of tears'
