Nothing Says “Punk” Quite Like Huey Lewis

I know that when I think “punk,” Huey Lewis and Toni Basil are the first names that come to mind:

I can hardly wait for their forthcoming Heavy Metal collection with Simon & Garfunkel and The Bee Gees.

(To be fair, Devo were considered punk very early in their career, and Billy Idol at least dressed the part and came out of the same scene as The Sex Pistols. There’s a very amusing bit in Glen Matlock’s I was a teenage Sex Pistol in which a suddenly chastised Idol grows apprehensive over having wrecked his father’s car…)
