Any Huey Lewis and the News fans out there?

The very first tape I ever bought was Huey Lewis and the News' "Sports" when I was 14.
I'm still a big fan of their 80's stuff.

I also liked Huey Lewis And The News! I remember seeing them perform in what I believe was their first national television performance on "Fridays" in either 1981 or 1982. (Someone correct me if I'm mistakened.) I'm an oddball because I bought their very first cassette, Picture This, and didn't purchase any of their other releases: the more popular Sports and Fore! I really liked their more rock sound on Picture This with tracks like "Workin' For A Livin' " and non-hit "Change Of Heart."
I really wish someone would release a comprehensive greatest hits CD from Huey Lewis. The two "greatest hits" CD's I've seen are both missing several hit songs. Thanks for starting the thread Eric!

i love the scene in "American Psycho" when Christian Bale waxes eloquent about 'hip to be square' and the "Fore" album before getting busy with the axe.
