One that didn't make me nervous, wondering what to do. One that made me feel like I felt when I was with my right hand, all alone....
Falling into that category with Bryan Adams and John Cougar Mellancamp, Huey was your standard rock, avoiding the pratfalls of New Wave or Synthpop. They gave us solid tunes that although somewhat dated, can still be played with confidence today without getting weird looks. You know what I mean.
Imagine, me being 14 with nothing more than a boombox playing Business As Usual, Thriller, Seven & the Ragged Tiger and THIS album, Sports, over and over and over and over and over. Yeah, I got fucking sick of it, but that was my musical library (aside from a handful of 7-inch 45s). But, it still hits my top 100 albums of my own life.
Too bad they didn't include more of his tracks on the Duets Soundtrack... That may be one of the soundtracks I post in January, I'm not sure.
Found a couple mixes, which is good, plus a couple sessions. The cover was a classic, so I didn't want to fuck with a masterpiece. It's times like this I wish I had a way to 3D scan/print vinyl, as that would be the best way to appreciate this one....
Too bad that they only lasted one more album before they turned to shit. I'll post Fore! and Picture This, their only other good albums later. Just enjoy this one now...
