Cultural Facts:
- They Used to Be American Express: Before settling on Huey Lewis and the News, the band briefly called itself American Express. Concern over confusion with the credit-card company pushed them toward a new name just before their recording career took off.
- A Lawsuit Came From āI Want a New Drugā: Huey Lewis later sued Ray Parker Jr., claiming the Ghostbusters theme sounded too much like āI Want a New Drug.ā The dispute was eventually settled out of court, tying one of Sports' biggest songs to one of the most famous soundtrack controversies of the 1980s.
- Five Hits From One Album: Sports produced five Top 20 singles - āHeart and Soul,ā āI Want a New Drug,ā āThe Heart of Rock & Roll,ā āIf This Is Itā and āWalking on a Thin Lineā - turning a hardworking Bay Area bar band into one of America's biggest acts almost overnight.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though itās not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
