About American Express
There are at least two acts called American Express. 1. American Express was the name that Young Love used when he had his demos on myspace.com including "Find a New Way". 2. Under the name "Bluesy Huey Lewis," Huey Lewis played harmonica on Thin Lizzy's 1978 landmark album Live and Dangerous. That same year, he was playing at Uncle Charlie's, a club in Corte Madera, California, doing the "Monday Night Live" spot along with future members of his band, Huey Lewis & The News. The band was billed as Huey Lewis and the American Express. After recording the song "Exodisco" (a disco version of the theme from the film Exodus) simply as American Express, Huey landed a singles contract from Phonogram. The band played a few gigs (including an opening for Van Morrison), before adding new guitarist Chris Hayes to the line-up. On Brown's advice they then changed their name again to Huey Lewis & The News.
