Paul Simon
Kenny Rogers
James Ingram (didn't get him)
Tina Turner
Billy Joel
Michael Jackson

Dionne Warrick
Willie Nelson
Al Jarreau (didn't get him)

Is this the greatest collaboration line-up ever?

Smokey Robinson was involved in the chorus, I can't believe they didn't give him one of the solo lines.

Just watched Hall and Oates in concert on SkyArts

Daryl Hall and John Oates Live in Dublin 2014

Fabulous set of all their hits .. the bans were amazing live and I don’t think I’ve heard a better vocal performance in many years.

Daryl Hall was unbelievable

They were really big in the early eighties. More so in America than UK. But they did OK over here too.
