Hall and Oates
Hall & Oates are a music duo made up of Daryl Hall and John Oates. The act achieved its greatest fame in the late 1970s and early to mid-1980s. They specialized in a fusion of rock and roll and rhythm and blues styles, which they dubbed "rock and soul." They are best known for their six #1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100: "Rich Girl", "Kiss on My List", "Private Eyes", "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)", "Maneater", and "Out of Touch." I also loved "Sara Smile" and "Kiss On My List"
Harry took me to the 2nd concert
I ever saw. It was after we were
married and my brother,
"Barney's Friend Chris",
also went with us to see it.
I believe it was in the
Jacksonville Coliseum.
It was a wonderful concert.
I loved all their music
back then and listening to it
now brings back fun memories.
I can't really pick a favorite song.
Only thing, their lead guitarist,
G.E.Smith scared me to death.
G.E.Smith scared me to death.
I swear he looked like an
Axe Murder! I could hardly keep
my mind on the music for
looking at him. He was so scary!
He later was the musical director of
Saturday Night Live.
He was good but scary to look at!
Any who...
For your viewing and listening pleasure!!!!
Hall and Oates!

Wow. I'm sort of happy that I never grew up listening to these guys.
I am running to my Ipod now. Time for a download.
I love Hall and Oates.....but a question........
If "Private Eyes" are watching me does that mean I'm being stalked?
Is it Bagman?
You are always a joy gigi and make me smile every time I visit you...,
thanks for that gal :)

Oh yeah, "Private Eyes" I remember that song, I agree with Reggie girl. I always felt a bit weird when I heard that song, I always felt like I was being watched...
BTW: Thanks for the lovely comment.
Yer killin' me! I'm having these random songs go through my head and they won't go away........my hubby and I kissed to a BeeGee's song "how deep is yer love" .....only he wasn't my dh yet...oh, those were the songs weren't they?
The second time you saw them would have been on their Big Bam Boom tour in 1984 ... I too saw them, but at BYU and Cory Hart of "I Wear My Sunglasses At Night" fame opened up for them. I think that was one of the loudest concerts I ever went to. And I can remember thinking the same thing about G. E. Smith when I was at the concert ... kind of scarey! I saw them not so long ago doing a concert on A&E and they were doing acoustic versions of their hits ... It was great! I wonder if they have a CD of their acoustic versions ...
I like Hall and Oates. I listened to them. I remember one of my VERY FIRST concerts as with husband #1 - we saw Neil Sedaka, that was fun. While in college I saw Kenny Rogers and the First Edition --that was BEFORE he was just Kenny Rogers. Then ,again, while at college I saw the Fifth Dimension. Then just last October saw Donny and Marie in Vegas!!!! It was a BLast.
i just so happen to love that sexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxy hair!!!!!!!
Oh my goodness, I remember Hall and Oats. Loved them too. I think "Maneater" was my favorite. Good times. I loved tehe 80's.
sigh. thanks for the stroll down memory lane!
We saw Hall & Oates in Biloxi, MS at Beau Rivage before Katrina. They did an excellent show, but only performed for 1 hour. They left making me want more.
You're a rich girl and you've gone too far but you know it doesn't matter anyway. You can rely on the old man's money, you can rely on the old man's money.
I heart Hall and Oates.
Oh, that 80's hair! This brings back such memories.
