to New Orleans. He told Leap in the Dark: "I was tired of being 'Willy DeVille,' walking out of my building and having to be the guy who was up on stage all the time, even when I wasn't performing. I wanted to get away from that. So I got down there (to New Orleans) and it was if this famous guy had come to town, and I didn't want that. So I decided to do an album with a bunch of the musicians from down there, the music of New Orleans."
DeVille told Sheila Rene about the beginnings of Victory Mixture:
Producer Carlo Ditta described the birth of the album this way:
, and The Wild Magnolias
as part of his "New Orleans Revue" tour. He told Leap in the Dark, "The travel, buses, and planes and the accommodations had to be some of the worst I've ever experienced, but the shows themselves were great. At the end of each show we'd throw Mardi Gras
rows out to the audience, you know strands of purple and gold beads, and they'd never seen anything like it and they loved it.”
, and Ditta joined the band in an after-hours jam session
at the Beat Exchange, a New Orleans punk rock hangout.
This album was the first time DeVille recorded with guitarist Freddy Koëlla (credited on this album as Frèdèrick Koella), who would record and tour with DeVille for many years to come. The two were introduced by guitarmaker James Trussart. Said DeVille, "I adore (Trussart). He made my guitar and introduced me to my guitarist, Fred. A fabulous guitarist. He can play like Ry Cooder
, he can play the Spanish style... He knows it all, his play is very subtle, very sophisticated. On stage I always have to tell him to play louder; he's afraid of stepping on me. That's a good guitarist. I'd like to play more the guitar, the slide particularly, but when I listen to him I stay paralyzed." Koella played in Bob Dylan's backup band in 2003 and 2004.
Victory Mixture was also the first time DeVille sang with background vocalists
Dorene and Yadonna Wise, who would tour with DeVille in The Mink DeVille band in years to come. Allen Toussaint
introduced the Wise sisters to DeVille.
The songs "Teasing You," "Beating Like a Tom-Tom," and ”Who Shot the La-La”
can also be heard on DeVille's Big Easy Fantasy
album (1995). The songs have slightly different horn and background-vocal arrangements.
