"Do you like Huey Lewis and The News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this, Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself."

Was a big fan in the 80's as a kid. Was too young to go to "The Arena" to see him but legend has it he was seen in the hotel lobby after the show drinking a jug of orange juice and poured it all on his face and shirt. Must have been refreshing. All of these things he's sharing make so much sense. A great glimpse into his history.

Huey looks like the coolest guy that you would love to have as a friend to hang around at home watching a football game or something. Looking at him back in the 80s. he never tried to have "an image" like other acts with weird haircuts, outrageous clothing, etc. None of that. He was always just a plain regular guy, casual well dressed, normal appearance, and all that he needed was the *real talent * that he had to be so successful.
