Summary:
Between 1982 and 1988, few bands worked harder than Huey Lewis Lewis and The News. Although the group was made up of seasoned vets, it wasn't until the breakout success of "Do You Believe In Love," a song from their second album, that they began receiving attention outside their home base of San Francisco. Over the coarse of the next six years, the group would perfect their blend of good time rock & roll music, infused with the soul and doo-wop influences of their youth. They would score big with three consecutive platinum albums and an impressive list of hit singles, including three number ones on the Billboard charts. Relentless touring and high rotation exposure on MTV would eventually pay off and the group would become a national headlining act capable of filling the biggest arenas in America.
In 1989 the group finally took some well-deserved time off from their touring and recording schedules with one notable exception. In May of 1989, Bill Graham presented a series of benefit concerts in multiple venues to raise awareness about AIDS and fund research and care for those afflicted in the Bay Area. Huey Lewis and The News took part in this "In Concert Against AIDS" series with a memorable one-off club performance at Slim's in San Francisco, which would not only be their first gig in over four months, but their first club gig in years.
Presented in its entirety, here is that performance. Surrounded by family, friends and a hometown audience, this intimate club gig has it all, including the group's biggest hits and a choice selection of covers. At one point, American Pro Bowl wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers, Dwight Clark, joins the group onstage, lending his voice to the doo-wop classic "Working In A Cold Mine." Mark Russo, renowned for his saxophone work with Tower Of Power and The Yellowjackets, also joins in on the final half hour of this remarkable performance. 
Видеоклипы
How could anyone down vote this? Huey sounds exactly as he does on the recordings. No lip syncing, no auto tune, just pure rock and roll. And the rest of the band is just as genuine. A highly under-rated band.
I WUZ BORN TO DOWNVOTE.
These guys should be 1st ballot HOFers.
Actually, live music isn't supposed to sound like recorded music. You got it backwards. Recorded music is basically a short sampling of the real art not the other way around. Maybe you're to young to remember 45's but if you ever expected The Beatles to sound the same live as they did on a 2:20 45 record, you didn't get it. The whole point in going to see Bruce Springsteen live is to experience the real art of music. Good thing you weren't around during Beethoven's time. All they had back then was LIVE.
THIS IS 100 TIMES BETTER THAN ANY STUDIO RECORDING. Get with the program.

First of all it' s a matter of taste.
I' m not a fan of the News because their music is too even, too glossy and too designed, typical 80's mainstream poprock.
Great musicians, no doubt but I don' t want a studio sound on stage.
People don't realize how difficult it is to play this clean,nail the vocals while playing...These guys harmonize as good as any band..No pro tools...no auto pitch,no tape loops playing...The sound itself is clear,mixed just right..Nothing too loud,you can focus on any one player..Amazing job...
Couldn’t of said it better myself. It’s called the fine art of subtle, taste and true authentic. Not all e money in the world could buy that! Truest special gift
Back when people had to actually be talented to become a famous musician. Now all you need is autotune, a plastic smile, and some stupid looking clothes that covers everything but your privates that noone in their right mind would ever wear in public or anywhere else for that matter. In fact you almost have to have those things now or your standards arent low enough to make it. Talent has taken a back seat to shock value and computer generated or at least assisted garbage.
In '87, Huey released this; Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square." A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.
They were a great band. Very underrated in my opinion
This quote is from "American Psycho" for those who didn't get it. ;)
Huey Lewis is one of the most easily recognizable voices in the music industry. Unique, distinct, powerful and truly the voice of rock and roll.
Yes Sir, VC ! I hope I never see me , or Huey vomit Confietti !!!!
Ftffmmmmm5fgggggggggffff..........ggggg
Ftffmmmmm5fgggggggggffff..........ggggg
Ftffmmmmm5fgggggggggffff..........ggggg
YES!
This brings tears to my eyes, remembering not just a better day, but a time when really good bands could give you a gift of making your day just a little bit better.
💯💯💯
Yes thank you same to me Roland from Germany Berlin Lost in love in California by this music !!!
Saw and met Huey back in the 70s when he was touring UK as a member of Clover. Loved him then, loved him ever since. Top, top man and always gives a nod to the late great Philip Parris Lynott. ❤
I love Huey's music.Shame he went deaf.Hope one day they can fix his hearing then he can perform again
2024 I’m 73 years old and just discovering Huey Lewis and the news music. I really love it ❤
Agreed.Huey Lewis is a brilliant band.You can understand what they're singing unlike most pop stars today
Huey and the news was huge in the 80s and Men at Work.Favorites from the80s.😂
Wait, you lived through the 80's and you never heard Huey Lewis? How did you manage that? 😉
My lovely boyfriend and now husband of 25 yrs gifted me a trip to Newport, Wales to see my fave band from the USA play. Huey Lewis and the News came to Wales! and made my life complete. Awesome music and lyrics so smoothly executed. Love to listen to this especially during Covid.
Huey's music always makes us feel good. Good luck with your health, my friend.
Now this is what i call a live band, no bullshit, no autotune, no lip syncing, just pure showmanship and musicianship.
our bands back then and in the 70's rehearsed for days before the first concert, to get it down, not like these new want a be bands,
Autotune and youtube have destroyed the music business. Skill and talent no longer matter. It's all about creating a "brand" that the millennials and Gen Z will eat up. Nobody cares if you can actually sing or not.
Yes punisher!
I saw them one time in early 90s. I was not a huge fan of his and it wasn't something to do. He greatly exceeded my expectations. They had a portion of the show that was acapella and it really showed off his skills.
I agree.Heuy Lewis was brilliant.
Always dug their music but it wasn't until I saw them perform at Mountain Aire festival back in 87 and was completely blown away. Mad respect. These guys were musicians for musicians
Mahn that drummer is SOLID!!!
Their mullet game is solid af.
Lol....INDEED!
And the best mullet game in the world!
That's because when they are playing they're all business, and when they're done they leave the party behind them.
The wind makes them majestic.
Watch Behind the Music. These guys had no drama, no issues, just a bunch of mates playing great music and having fun.
Its great
Because who wants trouble fame hungry people who believe that they are better than everyone else, and believe that the sucess of their group comes before anything else.
This is part of what makes Huey Lewis and the News so great
Sean Hopper is a killer on that organ
They are a very tight sounding band!
@Kevin Prima if you like drama watch soap operas!
Kevin Prima... YOU must be boring, if you need bullshit sideline drama, to enjoy music.
Huey Lewis and the News are an incredible band. Each musician in the band are so talented. They can probably play any genre of music and are very tight playing live together.
Gosh I miss them, Huey is so talented, He used to come back from driving a truck run for my father and walk into the office after singing for hours, his voice was so rich and cool.
Hell yah!
Thank you for sharing. What an awesome experience. Boys are back in town was brilliant. What a swing they put on it!
HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS:THAT´S PURE ROCK´N´ROLL!
Soubnds more like Rythm n'Blues.
The world needs more music like this today!
Still do
@@lise-lottelundroeddik4706 Yup.
GD straight!
Thank you. Huey was a favorite musician of mine in the best decade of my life. Seems like all the good stuff happened in that tiny ten year span.
As a 60 year old happily married straight man I must say, I love this guy!
Just got blowed away by the sax solo!
This made me so happy! They are so great!
Real musicians. The total package. Thanks for the memories.
Check out Lexington Lab band song catalog! They’re mind blowing awesome many great old songs
I loved Huey Lewis,shame he went deaf from Mienere's disease.Hopefully,he can find a cure and then he can go on tour again
this is a Jam all the way through again thanks Huey Lewis and The News
Not a Huey Lewis fan, BUT, since I grew up in the 80's (high school and college), I appreciate the simple fact that this was a REAL BAND, playing REAL INSTRUMENTS, and doing songs live without all the techno gadgets we see today! Great job! And I SOOOOOOO miss the 80's! Best. Decade. Ever!
Only a FAN would even bother to write such a great response!!!
You're my hero. 😀
70's were better for Sex and drugs and rock n roll
@@mauriceortiz8817 thanks
@@midnittkr I was too young then but from what I remember seeing...yup
You & the band are one of the greatest. I love the concert “Dancng in the Moonlight” in 2012. I just watched it in 2023. The best artists ever. Timeless. Thank you.
This band, in the early 90s, came to Camp Pendleton to play a free show for us folks in the service. We saw them on the beach; it remains a top-ten concert for me. They KILLED!
This wonderful man and his band could lift my days when they were the darkest. Thank you all for playing this for us! What a fun, uplifting show for everyone. Huey has always been so inspiring to me. Lived everything he recorded. Thank God for his style of music and great joy he has given to us. We are so blessed. Love you, Huey. I hope everyone enjoys this music. It's such a great quality recording, and the sax player u absolutely the best. What a way to end a dull or sad night. ❤
Vacationing in Clearwater. Went to the beach and stopped by an open air cafe to grab some coffee. There he was, wearing shades, sipping coffee and looking at the newspaper. I did not want to cause a stir. He looked very relaxed. I just paused as I walked by and said Welcome to Saint Pete brother, enjoy your stay. Huey nodded with a big smile and a thumbs up.
Saw them live 5 times in the 80's and early 90's with my late wife. So So good! One of the best live acts I have ever seen! My heart breaks for Huey and his hearing issue
Do you remember them doing an a cappella song with a drum machine as accompaniment? I saw them in ‘87 or ‘88 do this and I can’t remember the song.
@@selecttoursnyc7787 They brought the machine out a lot in a Radio Flyer wagon for Bad Is Bad.
How about your late wife ? I'm curious
@@selecttoursnyc7787 as a gimmick for the sake of it that they used "electronics"
Huey Lewis and the news were great! Saw them live back in the 80's. Why cant their be more bands like this now. Absolutely Awesome!
amen
Check out Lexington Lab they cover so many groups unbelievably ❤❤❤❤ check out Rosanna ( Toto) steely Dan reeling in the Years! Huge song catalogue of hits😂❤
Listening to this gig while reading other pages.... Whole Lotta Lovin...then it morphed into The Boys are back in Town!!! Shivers down my spine at that guitar solo intro! What a great band! Love that guy!!!
in about five years they'd hit their peak, and really stayed there. A real band with no electronics. Pure instruments.
A great Band, one of the few Bands of the 1980s that still had the roots of Rock and Roll in their music, I'm talking about R&B SOUL, I seen them back in the mid 80s, very good and soulful, I had the pleasure of hanging out with Guitarist Chris Hayes and what a kind and cool man and great musician, Thank you guys for your contribution to Rock and Roll and a fun time in Salt Lake City, Utah way back then !
Chris Hayes was a very good looking guy back in the 80's. I have only just found this video and can"t believe how good they were
Hey, 33 years ago *nearly* yesterday. Time, what a trip, man. Great show in both cases. Thanks!
Outstanding!!!
Love this time and this music great to lighten up during the pandemic .we need some of this music !!!! !!!!!!
GREAT show! NAILED IT! The beginnng of I want a new drug put a BIG silly smile on my face. I thank you. hahaha ROCK ON
The live cut is identical to the studio cut in quality and clarity. Truly a rare and rocking band!
How can 80's be 80's without Huey Lewis and The News.
Saw them live in London in the 80s, blooming marvellous................
My first rock concert at age 17 at the 5 Seasons Center in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. 17 yrs old, first car, first job, making $3.35 an hour working at Bonanza Steakhouse. Amazing Times!
Rudy... Absolutely!! You better believe it was. Hope you can always remember it that way. All good stuff.
That's great.What job are you in now if you don't mind me asking?I loved Heuy Lewis and The News.
Lets Go Get Stoned what an awesome tune....... Thanks Huey.............
This needs to be released in a Blu Ray/CD combo pack.
Bill Gibson, crazy under rated drummer! Solid!
Decades later I have a newfound appreciation for Huey Lewis And The News. What a great band and what good songwriting. Even the overplayed hits are still enjoyable to listen to.
Yes!! The band full of good looking talented MEN... so good to have this on this morning!!
Always had a soft spot for Huey Lewis and, as a huge Thin Lizzy fan, was truly impressed by the performance of Phil Lynott’s ‘Tattoo, Giving it all up for love’, and what a great rendition of ‘The Boys are Back in Town’. Great stuff. 🤘🏽🎸
still got many of his albums and loved having seen him live in Rotterdam back then, with Melissa Etheridge as support act! Awesome night I can tell you!!
Huey Lewis is the real 1st harmonica player I heard and made me want to play harmonica right away!😘☺🤙 The News: what a brilliant combo with their fine vocal harmonies oooh 👌😃
Love the performance of the last song! Excellent!
Love Huey Lewis & the News. Saw them twice in Columbus OH before I left for the Army 26 years ago! Watching this sitting in a hotel in Japan, great reminder of home. God Bless America!
It was a great performance 33 years ago. Nowdays, I still enjoy watching the whole concert as if I were there at the club. Miss you guys!
Awesome every hit they jammed even Function at the Junction! They've floored me!
This level of musical and vocal and writing talent blows my mind.
I saw Huey and the News probably a month later than this and it was one of the best experiences of my LIFE!
Man. I remember Sports on the beach playing on the Walkman. This is just an unreal recording. Never heard them live... had tickets before Huey made the announcement about his illness. Whole Lotta Lovin' / Boys are Back in Town sequence is totally awesome. Mullets blowing in the wind... So so fortunate to have grown up in the 80s. Thank you God.
Isn't this great? Doesn't it bring back great memories of the 80s and your friends at that time? It sure does to me. Youth! Juventud divino tesoro
I was 35 at that time and I enjoy listen to these guys the same way today. Great band. Very rich sound. Beautiful melodies.
One of the best synced bands of all time!! Every positioned covered with perfection!!
Watching Huey and the band at the Keystone in Palo Alto in the 80's was unforgettable. Such a perfect venue to hear them hone their craft. The R&R HOF is incomplete without Huey Lewis and the News and Boston as members.
Awesome music, i miss this time period.
Power of Love is still one of my favorite 80s songs. Reminds me of Back to the Future everytime.
2 minutes in and there is a HUGE SMILE plastered all over my face...
My 1st Album I personally bought! ;) LOVE YOU HUEEYYY!!!!
My god, you know you've had a quality night out when you see Huey Lewis live. What a solid bunch of musicians this is!
Great!!! Great!!!! Great!!! Wonderful!! It's like listening to the original recording. My favorite Band!!!
VINTAGE!!! Please make music like this again!!
GREAT QUALITY
What we witnessed here . . no one will ever see again! I had the distinct honor of seeing them live . . WHAT a show!! the A'cappella bit where they all come out to the front . . JUST 5 MICs..sent chills up my spinal column . . they sing FLAWLESS!!
Absolutely one of the great modern R&B rock bands ....fantastic sound and great songs
Agree with your comment.Huey Lewis And The News were brilliant,not like so called bands of today who are all auto tune talentless rubbish
Will always love these guys......always!!!
WHAT A GREAT BAND! SAW THEM A FEW TIMES IN LONDON ENGLAND HAMMERSMITH ODEON, SHEPHERDS BUSH EMPIRE (TWICE) FANTASTIC - GOT IN THE BANDS VEHICLE AFTER AND GOT ALL THEIR AUTOGRAPHS.... HAPPY DAYS. LONG LIVE HL&TN.
Excellent!!!
Sound of my youth, great
Saw them in Brighton in the eighties.
Absolutely fantastically talented, hip, fun band.
Tight musicianship, great, positive night out
I never knew Huey Lewis and The News had performed in Brighton in the 80's.
Had I known,my parents and I would have come down to see them.
Tight VOCALS sassy sax! Lewis is a GENIUS! THE WHOLE BAND IS! I CAN'T FORGET WARD'S HARMONICA!
I’m from the Bay Area and attended so many shows by this band, all flawless and energetic, best of all was New Years Eve 1984 at the Coliseum in Oakland and the summer of 1984 at the Greek Theater in Berkeley.
Americans has and have such a great panoply of authentic great artists. Im. Canadian, and i hope that you guys can fix your terrible attacks of leftist communist media,... never lose your Liberty and Freedom, the role model of the world
What great music bringing back a lot of 1st year of college years WOW👀❤✌
LOVE THESE CLASSIC SOUNDS. A former road musician, singer songwriter.... Reminds me of the day. GREAT STUFF !!.
This is amazing !!!!!
Featuring a outstanding drummer. One great tune after another. Give it all up for Huey Lewis &THE NEWS! Live at Slims south of market in San Francisco. Slims was owned by Boz Scaggs and partners.
thank you for the dirty lowdown,boz was a big favourite of mine growing up in the 70s..#LIDO
Is Slims in San Fransisco still there or has it gone now,and what has replaced it now?
i grew up in the 80s enjoying Huey but now, i recognize how AMAZING his band was, too.
Met Huey in Hawai'i at a golf tournament. Very nice guy. Easily accessible. And of course, one of the greatest bands of the 80s. Hope his current hearing situation gets remedied so he can get back out there and keep rockin' it. Keep rockin' Huey!
I hear he is now doing a sign language tour for the hearing impaired.
Hes such a great guy! Cant believe that happened to him!!!!
Huey passed me the joint while in his hotel room with the band. Colony Hotel, New Haven. It was a good day for me.
Small World - Aloha
That's awesome. My aunt, who lives in Montana, told me that she sometime's sees Huey at her local golf course. I was like "GET ME HIS AUTOGRAPH!" Haha.
Even after all these years, it still blows me away how talented these guys are. The playing, the singing, the songwriting, the stage presence. You just don't see that very often today. Huey & Company, we need you!
I took notice a while back that the recordings were extremely well produced and mixed. Far better than most of their competitors in the day.
Here's some great "NEWS" for ya, , HE'S BACK!!!, (never really stopped) with that tight perfect band, YES HERE IN 2020, With a new LP called "Weather" Enjoy, PS: Kinda makes me wonder how he 'got back to the future..."
@@rockdesertsun8246 Dude, I thought you were pulling my leg, but yeah! I just bought the CD from Amazon. New album came out on Valentine's Day 2020. ❤
@@rockdesertsun8246 yep. The unfinished shorter album.p, because of his hearing disease that he still hopes can be restored…but not so far. 😞
Another group from a little bit earlier had the same talent as these guys . Dr. Hook. They always had fun and were great entertainers ...
Love the Music of Huey Lewis and the News ♥️🎸♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🎼
LOVE Huey and The News! Amazing Blues and Rock! SPOT on Vocals and Instruments!! LOVE IT!!
My husband surprised me with going to a Huey Lewis show at the old Forum in Inglewood, CA in early 1986. I’ll never forget how awesome it was.
Saw him in concert in Honolulu I I think '85. Great concert what a show!
Real rock and roll from those old days!! fun times and lots of great music for all to enjoy!!!
he's a great singer 🎤🥁👍🧑💼😁
God bless you Huey Lewis and your fabulous Band
In summer of 1983 saw them playing in Great America Santa Clara. Sports wasn't released until September, but they were playing all those songs! I remember my girlfriend saying "this band is gonna be big". She was always right about music.
One of the best American Band Ever
AMEN TO THAT ITS JUST DOWN HOME TO ME KEEP ON ROCKING
Yamaha baby!
R1 i though they were English.? I've been lied all this time.?
They're from San Francisco
markyncole, the venue they are playing, Slims, is in San Francisco and is owned by Box Skaggs.
You never get tired of listening to them! Huey is magic! His voice is unique in the world. I do regret those years.😢😢❤
dude, they literally made this look like a walk in the park. effortless!
Thank you very much!🙂👏👏👏
Hello dear
I saw your profile and may I say you have such a beautiful and captivating smile
WHY IS THIS GREAT BAND........NOT.......IN THE ROCK N' ROLL HALL OF FAME !!!!!!!!!!
Best band EVER out of 80s ..classy group of guys too
Because the HOF is bullshit!
Because they suck ass.
I’m with ya brotha. Huey has a crazy amazing voice and swagger that makes the sun rise. Band crushes were missing the tower of power in this show but put them in and they should be doing the super bowl
James Scheffler they’re in the Bay Area music HOF that’s good enough
Another classic '80's band. Their look and sound was quintessential '80's. May of 1989, just a couple weeks after this show I graduated high school and the rest was history . . . . . . . . .
Great band!!!! Huey is a great performer no gimmicks no crazy things just pure good music and great musicians big like thanks
I have Always Loved Chris Hayes and Huey
Saw them twice in Düsseldorf/ Germany end of 80s! Will remember this for ever! 😍
