Great tune: “Sarah’s off on a turnaound.”

(But Hall and Oates were not ANY kind of soul. Blue-eyed or otherwise)
Abandoned Luncheonette was my favorite H&O album, with Las Vegas Turnaround (your link), Had I Known You Better Then, When The Morning Comes, She’s Gone, and other awesome songs. Great lyrics, beautiful melodies, tight, spare (relatively) productions.
When they started their early 80s mega-hits, I feel they sold out and I didn’t care for them as much then—though I do think they were always excellent songwriters, singers, and musicians. Apparently the 1980s hits were largely co-written by Daryl’s GF/wife, who had a great pop sensibility, but it launched the boys into a whole different style.
