"I may not be the BEST guitar player or the BEST singer, but I'm the BEST ME" David Wilcox. I remember this comment whenever I'm doing a show. Puts it in perspective and takes the pressure off.
God. I wish they found a lost archive of him playing back then. David is the best damn live musician on the planet still to this day. His charisma is infectious
That's amazing...so hard to find early clips of him......probably one of the most under rated guitar players in the industry...saw him about 30 times in the 80's/90's...the y2k concert and am about to see him again in 2 months.....awesome performer!!
Wow! So wild to see him this young & all over the place! I was 9 in 1979, so I wasn't in the bars. Saw him about 20 years ago--not this energetic, but an incredible musician & performer! 💗David Wilcox 💗
Except for the loss of the mustache, this was the David I would often see at the Midwich Cuckoo, El Mocambo and other great little Toronto clubs during the 70's. Always an amazing time!
Mr. Wilcox was a friend of mine. My greatest friend (Wayne D) ,God rest his soul ,was his manager. I saw David at many of his shows backstage and I never got tired of. We did enjoy ourselves many a night into daylight. Plenty of girls and booze, what a great combo.I hope all is well. M.H. ( Hanny).
U lucky Canadians!!!! Best guitar player hands down!!! Seen him a lot when he would play Buffalo. No mo sho in Buffalo tho!??! Only thing I've heard is that the tralf (venue where he played while in Buffalo) would not pay/renew his Visa???
Eldon B I shot this video with a friend at the time. I was on the stage, my friend was on the ground. We shot his entire set but somewhere the video got recorded over as we had other commissions to shoot. Too bad we lost the set

Wildly underrated and under-known guitarist. Unique and one of a kind. Dig that dancing!

🎶Met a Gypsy fortune teller, in a little place. First, she read my mind, and then she slapped my face. A true Canadian troubadour.
Too bad there's no more footage, but I'm glad I got to see this.
