John Oates, telemark skier, the box set and the bomb

"Do What You Want Be What You Are" The music of Daryl Hall and John Oates arrives in stores on Oct. 13th. Putting it bluntly, this box set has got to be one of the greatest undertakings in the history of records. Every Hall and Oates song you could ever imagine. Live versions from all over the world. Music spanning from 1966 to 2009 all layed out chronologically. How they got all these labels together on this one is a Harry Houdini project. There are Atlantic Records songs, RCA songs, Arista songs.

Go watch some of their live videos and you will be amazed or re-amazed at how these guys perform. No one does what they do. Duos harmonize. These guys echo each other. They start on top of each other and then Daryl goes North and John goes South. These are brilliant productions, brilliant songs and brilliant performances. So before we get starting talking about what we are even more interested in – go buy this box set! It is nothing short of a masterpiece.
