Description

Sports is the third album by American rock band Huey Lewis and the News, released in 1983. 

It reached number one on the Billboard 200 on June 30, 1984, and catapulted the band to international fame. 

The album has been certified 7× Platinum by the RIAASports was ranked number 2 on the Billboard 

year-end album chart for 1984. The album spawned four top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 and a fifth went top 20. 

Sports did very well internationally where most of its singles charted in the top 40 or above in multiple countries.

The album was self-produced and recorded promptly after the modest breakthrough success of the band's second album, 

Picture This. However, due to reorganization and internal issues at the band's label, Chrysalis,

 the band held back the master tapes, choosing to perform at small venues to showcase the new material while

the matters were resolved. Once Chrysalis got their affairs in order and agreement in place by the band's management,

 the master tapes were handed over for production. Sports was finally released in September 1983 

and proceeded a slow climb up the charts throughout late 1983 and early 1984.

In May 2013, a two-disc 30th Anniversary Edition album of Sports was released. 

The album is now approaching 10 million sales in the U.S. according to the liner notes by Gary Graff 

and the press release issued prior to release.
