    It’s a bit strange to be that this release is so seemingly overlooked/under appreciated within the Darryl Hall & John Oates catalog.

    The band put together for this album is loaded with session greats, putting out a sound that’s really unlike any other H&O album. It’s an impressive album, and deserves a listen.
