Back in the late 70s I became a fan of the duo Hall and Oates.
I enjoyed their 'Philadelphia sound' and I committed many of their pieces to memory and could sing along with the radio or record player with wild abandon.
Yes, Daryl Hall and John Oates were to dominate my musical tastes for an extended period and I don't recall ever "not" liking them or their music.
Daryl Franklin Hohl is known professionally as Daryl Hall and works in American rock, R&B, and as a soul singer. Blue eyed soul.
Now there's a concept ! He was the co-founder and principal lead vocal front man of Hall & Oates, with guitarist and songwriter John Oates during the years from 1972 to 1984. Yes, those were the days.
I have watched a number of the television programs in the musical series Live from Daryl's House and I really took a trip down memory lane during many of them.
Daryl Hall was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2004 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in April 2014.
Daryl Franklin Hohl was born October 11, 1946 making today the 79th anniversary of his birth.
