RIP/Long Live Hall & Oates: A Deep Dive and Radio Special
Saddened by all the ugly Hall & Oates break-up news coming out around Thanksgiving 2023, I wanted to try to understand their story and their music better, f*ck the derision. So I did a my own deep dive into their music and history, and turned a vast new appreciation of Darryl and John's duo/band into a proper radio special, with soundbites I snagged here and there. (It's funny that such a brilliant, artistic yet vastly popular pop/rock 'n' roll act - with genuine Pilly soul roots - gets so little recognition and appreciation.)
About 2 hours and 13 minutes in, the show goes "live" - previous to that it's a tightly edited special, but I ran out of steam in early 2024 to finish the show properly, in part because of an auto incident that had happened that freaked me out. So I did the remaining part live ("WE'LL DO IT LIVE!!!") so the announcements get much more loosey-goosey from that point onwards. I got a lot of nice feedback about this one, and it's one of my favorite shows! Hall and Oates are dead; love live Hall & Oates.
All songs are performed by Daryl Hall & John Oates unless otherwise noted.
