Huey Lewis and the News/Tokyo,Japan 11.21.2017

In 2017, after four years of performances in Japan, the band performed at Orchard Hall in Tokyo from November 20th to 22nd. The second day of the three-day performance, the 21st, was recorded in full from a soundboard-level digital audience master for an hour and a half. First of all, the excellent acoustics of the hall helped to record a superb balance from low to high tones, and the vivid sound of the horn section in particular was astonishing. Of the four performances, including Osaka, the third day in Tokyo, which was the ultimate Greatest Hits show, attracted attention, and here too, you should check out the ongoing performance, which is based on many hit songs. In addition to the hit songs from “SPORTS” and “FORE!”, the album also features covers of Major Lance’s “Um, Um, Um, Um, Um, Um, Um” and The Valentines’ “Lookin’ For a Love.” It also features new songs from the album due for release in 2018, such as the sharp “Remind Me Why I Love You Again,” Huey’s playful “Her Love Is Killing Me” that plays on the title, and the heartwarming “While We’re Young.” This is a must-listen memorial item for fans.
