Huey Lewis one of the best harmonica players ever. He rocked it and sang soo awesome. They put on such a kick butt concert, you didn't sit down at all during the whole thing. Just had to stand up and rock out. Love ya Huey!!

I saw Huey back in 1985 or so. Bruce Hornsby and the Tower of Power was supposed to play with them, but they got fogged in in Seattle (we were in Spokane), so Huey played an extra hour. He play sax himself on a few songs, and played some songs he said they hadn't played in a few years. It was nice to get to see them improvise. Damned good concert as I recall.

I worked a major concert venue for about 7 years in the 80's. I saw Dylan, Bruce, the Dead and a hundred other big-name shows during that time. You may think I'm nuts, but in my opinion, the best show I ever saw was Huey with the tower of power. The best show ever! And, I saw them all.

Go ahead, compare them with Chicago, or whoever, the guys on that level are secure in themselves and know they can R O C K and do every time they get on stage. How lucky?! I live in an age where electric music is in fashion and passion. Go get 'em!

That sweat is the real deal, just like their songs. A dream concert for me would be The News with the J Geils Band & Tower of Power. TOP's horn section makes any band go to 11 (if you get my reference). GREAT POST - thanks for sharing!
