A guilty pleasure? Not at all, HUEY LEWIS & THE NEWS music is a true representation of the ’80s – and the 0dayrox team loves that decade. Universal Records Japan has just released past week “HUEY LEWIS & THE NEWS – Japanese Single Collection ~ Greatest Hits“, pressed on high quality SHM-CD.
The release includes all the HUEY LEWIS & THE NEWS singles released in Japan back in the day, many in their single mixes different from the album versions. The best part of it is all tracks have been remastered 2023.
The track list is presented in order of the singles original release dates, 18 songs with great sound quality, plus two bonus tracks (rare versions of their mega-hit The Power Of Love). You can’t go wrong with these radio friendly tunes such as ‘Do You Believe In Love’ (written by Robert John “Mutt” Lange), ‘I Want A New Drug’ (in its different single mix), ‘The Heart Of Rock & Roll’, ‘Hip To Be Square’, etc.
Pure ’80s
