It’s been 30 years since Huey Lewis and The News released Sports and to celebrate the anniversary a Remastered Deluxe Edition from Capitol/UMe will be in stores on May 14, 2013. The digitally remastered CD was overseen by Lewis and will include the album’s nine songs as well as “choice live versions” on a second disc. The special edition is also set to include photos and memorabilia from the band along with new liner notes.
The band’s set to perform one of the songs from Sports on the April 2, 2013 episode of Dancing with the Stars and on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on May 15th. And in May, the group will head out on their Sports 30th Anniversary Tour, kicking off in New Jersey.
Commenting on the anniversary release, Lewis said, “We’ve always been very proud of the record and it’s going to be a blast to play it all live!”
