    There's no denying Daryl Hall is an amazing singer, so it's not hard to understand why he was out front. But I love not only getting to hear John Oates sing (he has a great voice!), but also to hear him share his role in creating such great songs. His contributions to their music tend to get overlooked, so go John Oates!

      @imagydmusic1129 Sara Smile was their first big hit. She's Gone was covered by Tavares and hit #1 for them. She's Gone was re-released by Atlantic after Sara Smile hit the top 10.
      John also wrote Do It For Love, the last #1 (AC chart) written by either singer.
      The point is, for Daryl to claim that he did most of the work after 1975 is preposterous.. if it weren't for Johm's writing talent, where would he be?

    I saw Hall and Oates in 1978. To me, John Oates was very good at keeping everyone wanting more. For example, his vocal parts were "just enough," to make you want to hear more. He was he same way with how he moved around on stage. He kept you waiting for his next move. He never overdid anything. He's probably a great chef!
