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 The B52's, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atomicinumatt Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I think Huey Lewis is better than The B52's, at least in terms of new wave. I cannot say that I am a big fan of new wave either. But HLatN seems to have better withstood the test of time. Not that the B52's are bad, I like them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
