Huey Lewis & The News’ self-titled debut album, released in June 1980, was basically a California new-wave album by six skinny guys with six skinny ties. A quickly-recorded representation of their live set, it contained no hits, only got to #203 on the Billboard albums chart, but proved a good launching pad for a long career.

Join us, Nadine (an angel all dressed up like a devil) & Dylan (keeps his cards on top of the table), as we run through the first album from Huey Lewis & The News. A lifelong fan and a fellow traveller, we discuss each Huey Lewis & The News album track by track, our impressions, thoughts and memories. This is the newsbreak on the evening of the 87th day!
