*ヒューイ・ルイスとニュース。３作目にして大ブレークしたアルバムがこの「スポーツ」です。ヒューイさん、ミスター８０’ｓアメリカンだ。ヒット・シングルが全９曲中５曲！。ベストヒットＵＳＡとかで聞いていんや見てすっかり聞いた気になってましたがおら始めてアルバムは聴いただよ。前身バンドのクローバーは結成が６７年、名前が悪かったか苦労ば苦労重ねて成功夢見てイギリスへ出稼ぎしたもののパンクの荒波襲来で頓挫。生粋のヤンキー、ヒューイさん大好き野球見るの我慢して行ったのにさぞかし無念だったことでしょう。実力満点だったのに７０’ｓ１０年を雑草で生きて帰って来ました大陸シスコに。まだまだ負けてたまるかとアメリカン・エクスプレスつうバンド（しょーも無い名前ぇ）と合体、ニュースとして新バンド結成、クリサリスと見事契約して１ｓｔこそちょっと注目で終わったけど２ｎｄで夢見たヒット「ドゥー・ユー・ビルーブ・イン・ラーブ」獲得、さあ行ったるでのスポーツだ。製作は自ら、録音は地元で。ミックスは今をときめくＮＹパワー・ステーションで。いやーほんと初めて聴いたと思えないぞ。こりゃ己ベスト盤だ。当時は私、バンドで目を血走せらせておりまして、どっちかっつうと武闘派野郎、ＴＶできらきらしてましたルイスさん達、そりゃ眩しかった。いいなあ楽しそうでって。人の気も知らずで。実際はレコード会社からヒットヒット、ヒットしそうなシングル曲みたいの作れって圧力凄かったらしくかなり苦悩していたらしいと聞いております。しかしおかげでこのキャッチーな曲郡聴けて思い出もバッチリ作れました。２曲目ハート・アンド・ソウル。同様に苦労しつくしたバンド、イグザイルが直前にリリースして大コケした曲で、これチャップマン＝チンの作なんだよな。ほとんどイグザイル版まんまって事で苦労同士のリヴェンジつう痛快さ有り。最初のシングル（？）でリベンジ大成功。味わい深いす。パッと聴くとチャップマン＝チンに聞こえず。何回も聴いていく内にグラム前の南国してた時の風味がじわじわ出て来て、そうかぐるっと一回転して戻ったのかとか勝手に感激して。あ、バッド・イズ・バッドだ。英国時代のつながりでデイブ・エドモンズさんがあの青アルバムでやった曲。アレンジをがらりと変えてのスローで。逆カバー状態だ。本テイクはあちらのノリノリとばかりこちらはじっくり味わいのヴァージョンです。そして沁みます７．のイフ・ジス・イズ・イット。歌詞の内容ともども。歌詞と言えばウォキング・オン・ア・シン・ラインも。ベトナムに行ったヒューイさんの友人のことを歌った曲らしく、この成功の臭いがたっぷりの音で歌われるからして何をしてもツキに見放された男の話が余計厳しく。この曲に限らないけどけっこうやばいかと。開発したてでキラキラしてる音の数々のせいで音楽が返って流されそうになっているか。８０’ｓのハッピーな一コマになっているか。それはそれで大切な思い出だけど、今聴くならお化粧の下をじっくりみたいと一生懸命聴きました。ありましたぶっといのが。売れなかったクローバー時代と何ら変わらぬおおらかさと共に。

*Huey Lewis and the news. The album that makes to the third work and does a large break is this "Sports. "'of Huey and Mr. 80 s is American. The hit single in nine all is five. ｡It saw in best hit USA as soon as not hearing it, it feels like had heard completely, and album is listening ...... Hageme... It succeeds, it dreams because the name was bad or hardship hardship and it piles it up for 67 ..clover of the antecedent band.. years the formation, and it frustrates it to Britain by the rough seas raid of ..work away from home.. blowout. Surely regrettably though it was endured to see the yankee and Huie love baseball of genuine. To continental Cisco that lives in 70's10 year by the weed though it was the ability full marks and comes back. It unites with the circle and the American Express band (name without either) that still defeats, and it contracts splendidly to the new band formation and Crisaris as news, and it acquires the hit "Du Yu Bilub Inn Rarb" of the dream with 2nd, and, now, only 1st is sports of going though it was ended for a moment because of attention. The recording voluntarily : production in local. The mix : now at the throbbing NY power station. It will not seem to have listened for the first time unpleasantly and truly. It is the best of yourself board when absorbing it. Eyes were ..bloodshot.. in the band and me at that time, and, then, it was dazzling. which, Take Tatacaha fellow, and Mr. being possible TV to do L chairSo ..Rac... It doesn't know person's nature. Being possible to make like a single tune that seems to become a hit becomes a hit actually, becomes a hit from the recording label, and hears it is do when considerably suffering to pave it when pressure Sgo is driven. This county of ..obtaining.. Kyoc Ki disregarding however and memories in the favor were able to make Battiri. The second heart and Seoul. That it is tune that is similarly had a hard time, band and Igzail done to attach released immediately before, and largeness Cokeed, and is this Chapman = Chin's work. Most is Igzail version thing and Rivenge delightful having of the hardship. It makes it big the revenge by the first single (?). It tastes and it is done that it is deep. Chapman = Chin doesn't hear it with Patsu when listening. It is moved deeply without permission as making and one rotation to going out of the flavor at south before the gram at the time of listening gradually many times and the return. It is a bud Iz bud of ..encounter.. ,. Tune that Dab Edmonds did with that blue album in connection in British age. In slowness that entirely changes the arrangement. It the reverse-is covering. In this Tac, only the sea weed sea weed there and here are deliberately versions of tasting. If Ges Iz it of seven that sees and. With the content of lyrics. The Woking on A Shin line also : if it is said lyrics. The story of a man deserted by Tski is severe more no matter it does because it seems to be a tune that sings the friend of Huie who goes to Vietnam, and the smell of this success is sung because of enough sound and what it does. It is considerably and though not limited to this tune. Does it developed, does music seem to return because of many of the sound Kirakiraed by setting up, and thrown?Is it one happy scene of 80's?It listened to the make-up under by it hard in important memories deliberately if it listened now. It is and is and is. With large-hearted that doesn't change in any way in the clover age do not sell.
