Huey Lewis and the News have sold over 30 million albums worldwide and are ranked in the top 200 selling groups of all time by the Recording Industry Association of America.

"The Power of Love" became their first number-one hit, and "Back in Time" received radio airplay on album-oriented rock stations.

More than 20 years later, the band contributed the title track, appearing over the end credits, to the 2008 film Pineapple Express.

The Best of Huey Lewis & the News was released in the U.S. only and included four newly recorded tracks.

The third one was a career-spanning "greatest hits" album that included some harder-to-find tracks and was certified gold.
