Good question. Excellent team and their live shows even after over thirty years together are top-notch. Tiki took me to see them two years ago and I was really surprised at how great that show was. Daryl Hall is an amazing frontman.
Maybe the RRHoF is just waiting for Oates to grow back that 'stache. He's one of the few men in the world that desperately needs facial hair.

They will eventually. I only came to appreciate them long after their heyday. Once I was older and not worried about what others thought of my musical tastes, I listened to them and realized they had a ton of very good pop-rock songs.

They should be in for sure. I always did dig their tunes and took a lot of ribbing from my hard rock friends for it. I never cared what people thought though, thats just how I roll.
Actually many of my fellow musicians I have worked with appreciate their songwriting skills. Even if some won't admit it, they have made one hell of an impact on music.
Shit, they have scored thirty-four hit singles. "thirty-four" Eight of them went to #1, plus seven RIAA platinum albums along with six RIAA gold albums.
Me thinks that they qualify pretty damn well

If he turned up without that "cockduster", noone would know who he was.
Maybe they`ll be inducted into the RSHoF (Rock and SOUL Hall of Fame).

..."it was a psychically freeing moment. I'm sure it didn't mean anything to anyone else, but it was very important to me." - John Oates on shaving the 'stache.
Personally, I really don't want to hear about any of his "freeing moments."
But I am looking forward to seeing another one of their shows. They were fantastic! At first I felt weird going to see them, but I saw a LOT of other metal fans at that show. Now I will go see them anytime they are close enough.

Can't help remembering chris Kattan's SNL Behind The Music spoof on Oates.
"Yeah , those finger snaps...that was me"
"I'm Oates!!!"

The amazing thing about Hall & Oates was that there was A LOT of cool shit going on musically, if you really took the moment to listen to it. Some of the basslines going on were really cool...
Daryl Hall probably knows more about R&B, for a white man, than any other white man in existance...

Tom "T-Bone" Wolk is one hell of a bass player. He has also worked with Carly Simon, Elvis Costello, Squeeze, and Billy Joel among others.
Take it from this bassist, After seeing him play live, this man knows his shit.

I haven't had the pleasure of seeing him live, but I'd believe it based on the studio output...Originally posted by Tiki-Tom

How long you been playing for?
Around 20 plus years.Originally posted by bueno bob

Damn,:confused: has it been that long.:p
You play?
Yep, T-bone has got the groove covered well. He holds back a little bit on the records but the man really cuts loose live.
If you ever get the chance to see them,Ya should. I got Sparkie to go and that was a task in its self, Hall & oates are (were) way off her musical radar. Man, by the time we got home she was in disbelief over how good they sounded. Daryl is over sixty years old and his voice is sounding better than ever. Unbelievable talent.
Well, I used to; I started about '93...ish...even did pretty good for a while, but I basically gave it up to play Dad.Originally posted by Tiki-Tom

Gotta say I do miss it at times.
I hear ya, I'm doing the dad thing myself. It does make playin a little harder to make time for. I also know what you mean about missing it as I can't quite bring myself to put it down for good. I tried but its in the skin now, much like an itch that you can't stop scratchin It is hard to make time for it these days though.Originally posted by bueno bob

You should pick it up again at least as a hobbie. Do like I have and get the kid in on the fun. I got my daughter a nice Yamaha DGX-205 Portable Grand keyboard and at eight years old she is learning to play right along with dad. It makes for some great family fun. Just don't throw the kid on stage (ala Wolfie) till good and ready
I wandered off somewhere........O yeah. No matter what kind of music you like people, give Hall and Oates a closer listen next time you hear em because skillwise they kick ass
sorry, I just love talkin about music with fellow musicians. May you play once again dude.

I'm always thinking about it. The longer I'm out, the harder it is to get back in...cost, time, hell at this point I'd probably have to relearn most of what I used to know second-nature...lol...
Well, we'll see, maybe someday. Kids are getting older now, so anything's possible.

Thats one smooth groove..... "I Can't go For That" (no can do).....
Its melody just stays in your head.
Heres a newer (2003) but still catchy one. No doubt they write some infectious pop music.
"Man On a Mission"

I must say a Hall & Oates compilation is good to listen to anytime.
On a side note, though it was never my favorite song, "rich girl" sticks in my mind because of http://p202.ezboard.com/mercedes-ben...cID=1485.topic .
LOL.
