Huey Lewis & the News (live) - I want a new drug

Huey Lewis & The News came to Germany for a gig at the E-Werk in Cologne in 1991. The blooded musicians from San Francisco did a terrific show playing the highlights of their albums "Picture This", "Sports" "Fore!" and "Hard at Play".

With a mixture of rock 'n roll and rhythm 'n blues, frontman Hugh Anthony Cregg III and his five band members gave an authentic music presentation to the audience.

This is a great version of their song "I want a new drug" which is introduced by a long guitar solo from Chris Hayes.

One of my favorites from this band, along with Power of love and Stuck with you!

@pak51 The solo is blues scale and pentatonic. Chris also uses a lot of, what he calls, outside notes.

Chris was awesome - very underrated. The first couple HLN concerts I saw he was ok - but he improved dramatically over the years. Stef is amazing too, but I miss Chris. Thanks for uploading this video.

@pak51 Chris has a wireless pack for his guitar. You can see the pack on his guitar strap when he turns around.

What I need is a daily dose of Richard Grieco (in the flesh) and I will be A-okay.

Can anyone tell me what mode Chris Hayes is playing in? Also, what kind of guitar is Chris Hayes playing? I notice he needs no hookup to playup it. I don't see any guitar cables. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
