Hall and Oates in the '70's

[dudeman]

That "Live at Daryl's" house tv show is seeming to gain some traction after persevering on the web for a while. Daryl Hall is one insanely talented dood.

He made magic with T.Bone Wolk or whatever his name was. That dude could make everything sound a little bit country a little bit Hall and Oates. Check out this clip of the 2 of them playing "Cruel to Be Kind" w Nick Lowe and you'll know what i mean....

but i digress. this thread is about Hall in the '70's with Mr. Oates. and this. shit. kicks. ass.

Wait...Nick Lowe sings "Cruel to be Kind"? I didn't realize I knew anything by him

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

I only know a couple of their songs, and I'm sure they're talented songwriters, but they always struck me as just about the most uncool group ever.

 

[No spoken words]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh shit. This thread is what I'm talking about.

Where the fuck is JT?

Is this a thread in which it is ok for me to admit my love for "Rich Girl" or is that not cool anywhere?

This is the only Hall & Oates song I really like. DAT BASS.

I know this is from '83 but since there isn't a Hall and Oates in the 80's thread... this brings back fond Christmas memories.

Uncool you say?? No way!

 

[Jive Turkey]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh shit. This thread is what I'm talking about.

I Can't Go for That is my favourite, but this kicks some ass too. Not quite 70s, but too fucking bad

Hall & Oates - Kiss On My List (Lyrics) - YouTube

I Can't Go for That is more Dream Yacht, which I prefer. But the Post Ephemeral Wave Boat stylings of Your Kiss are quite nice too

Abandoned Luncheonette uses some of the same sessions guys that Steely Dan employed: Hugh McCracken, Rick Marotta, Bernard Purdie.

Damn good album. And it's actually from the decade of the thread title!

Funny, I'd never heard of these dudes until about a year or two ago. Apparently they wrote a lot of hit songs.

 

[HeartlandGirl]

You guys should probably all call this number:

(719) 266-2837

So, 'round about the time War came out, this poster was on my wall. My mom got it at a concert. I was about 10 -- old enough to know that they weren't cool, but too young to be slapping stuff on the walls that wasn't sanctioned by the parents. I don't think it stayed up long.

 

[dudeman]

that's a freaky awesome poster. absolutely terrifying.

Check THIS out - even the album cover is AWESOME:

War Babies.

Listen to it ASAP.

Awesome.

Up until this moment I was convinced I was the only person on this forum who's actually had sex.

FYI- I'm gonna pull off that 'John Oates' mustache next month.

You aren't, though I doubt many of us have nailed our wives whilst posting on interference, listening to music and cooking dinner.

I only have one wife. Now I find out dudes here have not only had sex, but they actually have "wives"?

Good work.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Schloopen... trying so very hard

Schloopen... trying so very hard

So, what "Hall and Oates" song drew you in here?

Post! Post! Post It!

Cause "She's Gone" does it for me. "One On One" does it as well.

I already posted one. I'll assume you already had sex to it. I feel extra special that way

 

[Von Schloopen]

It's not about you feeling extra special. It's about her feeling extra special.

That's how ya do it. And keep doing it.

 

[cobl04]

What if JT is gay, Schloopos? You just wildly assume he's straight?

 

[Jive Turkey]

It's not about you feeling extra special. It's about her feeling extra special.

That's how ya do it. And keep doing it.

Oh, Schloop, you nasty.

 

[HeartlandGirl]

Is nobody gonna call that number?

Doooooo iiiiiiiiiiitttt.

 

[lazarus]

I called it. Mrs. Schloop answered.

Let's just say "One On One" wasn't the only option. Can't imagine that "Maneater" ever saying "I Can't Go For That".

She also happened to mention that her and the hubby's song was "Did It In A Minute", interestingly enough.

 

[Danny Boy]

They do a mean cover of (You've Lost) That Loving Feeling, too, FWIW.
