"Do you like Huey Lewis and The News?"
"They're OK."
"Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor."
"Hey Halberstram."
"Yes, Allen?"
"Why are there copies of the style section all over the place, d-do you have a dog? A little chow or something?"
"No, Allen."
"Is that a rain coat?"
"Yes it is! 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."
"Hey, Paul!"
