Huey Lewis And The News ~ I Want A New Drug {12" Mix}

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Love this! The live version they used to do which was based on this 12" mix is even better with the Tower of Power horns backing them.

Just like the white winged dove...

Didn´t he sue Ray Parker Jr. because the Ghostbusters song sounded very similar?

Yep, and Huey won the case.
