Produced by the band themselves and engineered by Jim Gaines, the album features standout tracks like \"The Heart Of Rock \u0026amp; Roll\" and \"I Want A New Drug,\" which showcase their knack for accessible yet engaging songwriting. The mix, handled by Bob Clearmountain and Larry Alexander, balances the energetic band performances with clarity, making it a solid listen whether you’re tuning in for the driving beats or the subtle interplay in songs like \"Walking On A Thin Line.\" It’s a record where the band’s workmanlike approach to rock feels as deliberate as it does effortless—a reminder that sometimes the heart of rock and roll beats in straightforward, no-frills fashion. This 1983 pressing brings those qualities to vinyl with a presentation suitable for everyday listening.

The 12-inch format and pressing year place it close to the album’s original era, making it a practical choice for collectors who appreciate a solid vintage copy without chasing perfection. It’s the kind of record that fits comfortably into a collection and rewards repeated plays—proof that rock’s heart can still keep a steady, dependable beat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003csection data-track-listing=\"true\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTrack listing \u0026amp; samples\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHuey Lewis and the News - Sports\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Heart Of Rock \u0026amp; Roll\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeart And Soul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBad Is Bad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Want A New Drug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalking On A Thin Line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinally Found A Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf This Is It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Crack Me Up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHonky Tonk Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embeds\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iIZZMK9Mw7o\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/5jyfyM8Cinnh05OswtWv41\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Den Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"VG+ \/ VG \/ 1983","offer_id":67677660217660,"sku":"DEN00001245","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/9932\/2684\/files\/MjctODk3Ny5qcGVn.jpg?v=1792104780","url":"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/products\/huey-lewis-and-the-news-sports-lp-101526-den00001245","provider":"The Den New Hope PA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
