"The Music Business is closer to Organized Crime". No truer words have ever been spoken. Love Daryl & John!
A lot of it literally was run by organized crime. Ask Tommy James
Absolutely. They exploit artists' dreams of the big time with contracts that throw crumbs.
I agree. I love seeing what artists like Tom McDonald are doing. He is completely independent. He owns all of his music. All of it. He's got multiple billboard top 10's and 1's. Went from nothing to millionaire several times over. This computer age can eliminate the old industry. I'm OK with that. Let the artists do what they do and be rewarded for their work.
I was just going to comment on Tom McDonald! He broke the system and I’m 55 having witnessed how bad that system was for musical artists. I support Tom because of what Daryl and the others had to go through. Nothing they could have done differently in their time. That’s why it means so much now to witness a breakthrough! ❤
@@surfrunnerd8457 That's why you hire a contractual lawyer.
Daryl Hall is truly talented, produced great music, and it is amazing that he 76 years old and look so much younger. Good for him.
Gee, I bet he hasn’t had any work done! 😆😂🤣
This was filmed in 2015.
@@willyburtz7299 I was wondering about that. All these AXS clips are being uploaded now and makes people think the videos are newer.
Why do you care how "young" he looks? has literally zero to do with anything about him. Zero. Seriously moronic comment.
@@willyburtz7299 Well at 68 he looks great!
Class act. Love Daryl's House. You can tell he loves making music with fellow musicians.
My late hubby was a bassist in a band in Philly (also a Temple U student) with John Oates. In fact, John left their band to team up with Daryl permanently. He said no one liked Daryl due to his arrogance! But they never blamed John for the move because Daryl was so freakin' talented.
When you're a person who's gifted with 'it' (and you know it), and you have every confidence that you're going to become a big success at 'it' if you stay your course, you're automatically different from everybody else in very obvious ways. You move in ways that are simply different, and you carry an energy that focuses you on that success. You don't allow the negative energy of other people, or 'bad luck', or unsolicited advice temper your resolve. You stay focused on your goals even when doing so means you have to suffer for a while.
Darryl had this. He had it when he was very young. When you listen to him sing live and unplugged it is very, very obvious. People who don't understand this vibe will judge and criticize, and they call it 'arrogance' because, in their minds, you should look, act, and live just like everyone else does. I've read many biographies of famous and successful people and they all describe this very thing though in different ways.
I dont believe that he had the confidence when he was young and arrogance. In school he was a quiet kid and was picked on , that's why he never came back to Owen j Robert's school when they invited him because he hated it there. I know people who went to school with him.
@@FallacyAsPraxis Interesting.
After all these years I always thought John was the blonde. 😂
@@juliej5917 🤣🤣🤣
One of the greatest singers and groups of all time! They don't get enough respect. Classic!
Are u high with all the hits they have a grammys of course they get respect dumb comment
Oh, they are loved and beloved. They are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They know we love them. ❤❤❤
No freaking way. To each his own but that statement is ludicrous
They don't get enough respect? Whatchu talkin'? Anytime one of their hits plays people will stop whatever they are doing and sing and dance. These guys are the pure definition of talent.
@@CC-si3cr That has nothing to do with respect, they have always been looked at as a group that made bubblegum pop music and not "rock" even though they look at themselves as a rock duo. People even fussed when they got inducted into the R&R Hall of fame. So yeah being popular and getting respect don't always equal.
One of the greatest duos ever, love them.
Laying down the truth at the end. Tons of respect for not throwing people under the bus and taking responsibility, even in those terrible situations.
There were always rumors that their management was not the best, perhaps even organized crime to a limited extent.
Yep. Many recording artists do tons of finger pointing. Ultimately, the artist has to make the time to do business and try to have a trustworthy team to help keep some of the wolves at bay. But it has to be tough when you feel like you’ve reached your dream, knowing the label, radio, streaming services can bury your career.
Or he feels talking too much will effect his livelihood. Stop the only cash flow that he gets. Sometimes you just have to lick your battles ..and telling the “truth” isn’t always feasible
I was into hard rock back then but no one could deny they wrote great, catchy tunes. And they were always on the charts with a hit it seemed.
I was into hardcore punk. Hall & Oates were a guilty secret pleasure.
not a sole cares what you were into... this isn't about you
@@ithinkaboutthings9052 🤫 😉
Back when? They made music over a long period.
When I was about 13 in the early 90’s, my mum and I were driving in Melbourne, Australia, in traffic. I looked into the car next to us which was a tarago or some sort of mini bus and staring back at me was John Oates. I flipped out when I saw him and so did my mum. John was laughing at us. I’ll never forget that smile.
These Dan Rather interviews of musicians are so in-depth, intimate yet relaxed. Well done!
Saw Hall AND Oates at a small venue in West Germany, they were amazing 👏 ❤!!!
One of the most brilliant musicians America has ever produced
Couldn’t agree more. Hall & Oats are the most successful music duo of all time. Incredibly talented and I feel blessed to have been a fan for as long as I have and to have seen them live.
Imagine he never quit teaching … Hall n Oates may have never existed
I love Daryl's communication style, brains, and of course, amazing talent.
Can we talk about how great an interviewer Dan is? He makes the guest feel so relaxed, and then asks them a tough question, and gets the info out of them. Too good!
Yes, the total opposite of Barbara Walters. I really miss Diane Sawyer though. She was also warm and had a good connection with most of the people she interviewed, with the exception of Whitney Houston. But that was Whitney Houston's fault
Love Daryl. Talking about the music business without exposing too much. Him and John are icons
Exactly.
thats the problem....people like him protecting it....he should have exposed it for what it is. not dance around it and say i dont want to say too much...thats the fucking problem, nobody will fucking say anything and the shit keeps happening
Real class. You could tell he was biting his tongue. He knows exactly who took their money. Great guy, great musician.
Uh no… he’s responsible as he admitted. And since he’s always been a huge narcissist I’m actually impressed that he admitted that truth. The money wasn’t “stolen” by the way lol!! Talk about delusional hearing and fantasizing. IF - big IF - it was mishandled, ultimately that’s John and Darryl’s fault.
“Money wasn’t stolen.” Yeah, ok. It’s so cute how naive and clueless you are and I’ll just leave it at that. Artists getting “robbed” yes “robbed” of their well-earned money is a story as old as music’s beginnings. But you clearly have an axe to grind against DH so it’s obvious the agenda at play here.
Billy Joel has a very similar story, but, yeah, all his fault too, getting “robbed.”
I’ll leave you to your ignorant ways and let you keep grinding that jealous axe.
Thank you John and Daryl for the great music. Appreciate you guys.
For years, I thought Hall and Oates was a band called, Haulin’ Oats. I wondered why they needed all them oats.
😂😂😂😂😂
Oh, That’s why Oates was always on Hall’s shoulders.
😂
HAHAHAAHAHAH that's hilarious 😂
@@IlluminovaNibiru 😂😂😂
Lovely music, lovely man. Educated, polite, intelligent, humble. None of that vulgar hyperbole.
Exactly, and it simply was a common, typical thing with mainstream artists back then. There are those who think somewhere before the 2000s or late 90s, when this was the situation. After that point, mainstream "performers" (they're not artists) don't possess these qualities.
Wow. When he said the music business was more like organized crime, because it was exploitation and thievery, truer words have never been spoken.
I remember an interview with John Oates in which he said he was informed all of their millions were gone. The only money he had was in his pants pocket.
Hall & Oates I’ll never get to meet them or see them in concert, but I thank them both for great music that was kind of the sound track of our lives!❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️ you hear their music and you instantly slide back in time!
I got to meet him 😁. I worked at a disco at Penn State in the 70's, and he sat at my table. Yes, ma'am!
@@CactusGal how cool is that !
saw them 8 times between 1978 n 2001 in california
@@bcmcboot Lucky you! I only saw them once in the Seattle area in 2013.
I really like the honesty in what he said! He really didn’t want to talk about it but got his point across anyways! Class act
Quit college 6 weeks before graduation.....wow
"Exploitation and Thievery"
Prince said a similar statement
One of the most magnificent singer/songwriting duos of R&B ever
My first album as a kid was Private Eyes on a K-Mart cassette copy my brother made for me. Always loved listening to them. All I had was a small tape recorder and graduated to a small boombox and used to record Hall & Oats songs thru the years off the radio as they came out in the eighties. That was a achievement then to make a mix tape off the radio, simpler times and miss small things like that and picking up skip on AM radio. Great music to grow up to then, pure and simple without auto tune.
Guess that's why he's so poor…. damn bootleggers
Portable Radio...its only ultr matic, viva la
Whatever you say, Daryl Hall is, in my opinion, one of the most complete singers of all time and without a doubt beautiful💕❤️💝🇧🇷
He's not really complete unless he's with John Oates though. They were meant to be together.
I love Hall and Oates, I listen to their music everyday and see their videos. I raised my son to love them too! Thank you both for your wonderful music and giving us so much joy for such a long time. Timeless. Ann
same here ☺️
One of my all time favorite singers. Glad to see he is looking healthy.
This interview was 9 years ago.
You could see more of recent Hall from videos of Live at Daryl Hall's House.
@@alexsdb9712 Thank you!
@@Tuinuiski You're welcome!
This guyvlook so great to be 75 !! Its so hard to believe he is so youthful
He today sounds greatsinging and playing .Dan rather looks great too ! Glad he did this interview
Two incredible musicians
One
@@ChosenWonStop it 😂
My first concert was a Hall and Oates concert at a 5000 seat arena in Glens Falls, NY in 1980 when I was in 7th grade. I took a good friend of my girlfriend without telling her, and when my GF found out she dumped me immediately the next day. Still a great show and lifetime memory for me. Thanks to you both for all the great tunes!
Mine too around 1980, in MI. We actually had really close seats, something I never managed to replicate more than once in my life
Ron, so when they asked about your GF, did you answer “she’s gone”? 😂😂😂😂
juggling women in 7th grade.
How can a pimply-faced 7th grader be a panty-dropper and juggling two girls at once?
SEVENTH GRADE! MAN, that's a core memory right there!
A legendary musical partnership
Dan being such a great listener makes him the wonderful interviewer that he is! Darryl rocks!
Saw them in the mid-80s for the Big Bam Boom tour in Puerto Rico. Show started with Out of Touch. Great show.
Love his honesty.
Hall and Oates were Brilliant
Top class 👍🇬🇧
man, can you imagine those early 75-person shows with them on just a wurlizter, a mandolin and a guitar? I bet they were fire.
These guys were and are a hit making machine.
Fascinating to hear Daryl Hall in this interview! I hope he finds it in his heart to bring back Live from Daryl's House and put up all the older episodes 💖 As it turns out, I just saw John Oates here in Austin at a fundraising performance at a very small venue (Z Tejas Avery Ranch) and he brought the house down!!!!!! 👏👏👏
I really enjoyed Live At Daryl’s house.
Their music is beyond words, their vocals are certainly harmonically amazing.
I love love LOVE them!!!
Need I say more?
Thank you Hall & Oates for doing what you do….
Great description of the music business.
this guy is one talented dude..
Saw Hall and Oates in concert 3 times! Washington, DC, Atlanta, Nashville! Love them then and still!
I saw them in concert in the early 80s. They sounded great!!
Philly Proud !!!! These guys influenced Rock, rap , and hip hop… when you have an impact across categories that’s Elvis / Beatles level …
And that's why they're in the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame.
1200 murders in Philly last year and a half. Great city!
I love Hall & Oates, one of my favorites back in the 70s & 80s. Never saw them live, hope one day I will. I still listen to they music.
They are amazing live.
Fabulous music , gave us unforgettable memories. ❤❤❤
I would carry my Walkman in a Fanny pack and would go jogging with their music. Loved Hall & Oats; still do. ❤
Great interview. I feel like I could talk to him all day.
I remember Live from Daryl's House; it only ran for Two Seasons on MTV 📺 🎶
I loved them and saw them in concert twice as a kid! The music of my youth.❤
Darryl Hall is a VERY underated musician. Great voice and writer .
“The most successful pop duo of all time/in Rock n Roll history.” I read that somewhere. One of my favorite artists. My favorite songs are Family Man, Private Eyes, Method of Modern Love, Say it Isn’t So, and Out of Touch!! I’m a big fan!! ❤❤❤❤🎼🎤
The notion that The Beatles' last album was released without their consent or control says all you need to know about how little power even the biggest bands had.
Appreciate his honesty and amazing voice. TY H&O
Abandoned Luncheonette is one of my fav albums
He has every right to blame the label, and so do thousands of othe musicians, and it still goes on today. The only difference between organized crime and the music business is you know the deal going into organized crime. Lastly, I had a promo copy of that original LP. Loved it.
Precious Man your gift of singing and performing by yourself and with John is priceless. We loved growing old with you. You have touched my soul for years. Thank you❤
Saw them in 1980 at my high school we won a Wrigleys Gum contest to get a free concert at the school. We got to be roadies and help set up. Was fun.
Kiss on my list is one of the songs of my early working life at 18 years ❤
Daryll halls vocal range is amazing but he is a true genius as he could write some incredible music
I ❤ Daryl Hall. I love Hall and Oates. Daryl Hall is a talented, beautiful soul!!
Darry Hall is one of my favorite singers!
Alot I like about this video.. 1st and foremost how candid the responses are to the questions which were very poignant.. 2nd you see the journey of a musician we all know and love.. grinding away doing what he loves while wrestling with corporate music bullshit. Good stuff. Love axs
Daryl Hall thanks for keeping it real about the music "cult" business
I remember seeing them in the 80’s Big Bang Boom tour. They were amazing 🤩
They wrote so many hits! I grew up with them. So many memories.
Thanks to Daryll Hall & John Oates for making great songs!
Much love to Daryl Hall & John Oates for their music. I hope they are getting paid by Spotify and other online music outlets where people can listen to their music. It bothers me that some of my favorite artists have to continue traveling and performing to earn a living after they get older. It's ok if they want to do that, but it's tough if they would like to stop traveling but have no choice.
My last name is Hall. So I always got jokes about Hall and Oates.... As a kid I didn't even know who they were! As an adult I WAS AMAZED how many hit singles one band can create... These guys ARE the 80s.
Seen them live about twenty years ago they are amazing Ns actually sound great live
I've always loved Daryl Hall & John Oates, & I always will!! 💜 💜 💯
loved them back in 76 and love them now...got to see them perform in Durham, NC in 2012. Memorable!
Dudes got soul!
i saw hall and oates in 2021. i saw daryl in 2022, and im seeing john in 2023.. may 25
Jeez, Daryl, you are my biggest inspiration and I didn’t realize it until I got close to retiring from a very successful career as a gigging live musician. You influenced the way I sing and you made me carve a sound modeled after your vocal style. Thank you.
Their music is timeless. Very interesting John words on music business.
Daryl was my hearthrob as a 80s child.❤
Always great 👍 to learn more about this great composer/musician/singer/entertainer. Always puts on an A Class show and his music 🎶 is timeless. 😎 💘
Love Hall and Oats!!saw them 4 times in concert!!would see them again!💖💖
Good interview! Love their music!
These guys: hit after hit after hit. I love their songs.
Lawddd!! Lovee me some Daryl Hall❤❤❤
In 1970 I went to concert. But there was more people on stage than in audience. Hall an Oats asked us our names an information. Then they would sing, then ask more about us. It was a very person an fun concert! I thought about this small informal concert when Tom Cruise gave kid, trying to make unlimited power battery, a Hall & Oats button for his shirt.
As Daryl says, the first time around for "She's Gone" wasn't a big deal. I don't know how much airplay they got elsewhere but in my town it would only get played late at night. So night birds like me felt we had our own little band in Hall & Oates.
When they did break and "She's Gone" went big along with "Sarah Smile" I felt a little ownership of that.
After all these years these two guys are still great songwriters and performers and have always been a class act.
Not bad for a couple of guys from Philly.
Saw H&O perform at Celebrity Theatre with my mom! I can’t remember when but was in the later years! Great show!
Big fan of this great and handsome singer... He is over 70 migh... Still soo smooth 😍
From Bangalore, India.
They played “She’s Gone” before 20+ in the Student Union at BGSU early seventies during a bad blizzard. I called DJ friend working at a rock station in Toledo ( WIOT ) and asked him to give it some air time. He did. Then Cleveland picked that airplay up and the rest is history. Great song, great band.
My favorite group. I got to see them perform in Las Vegas ❤
Thanks Mr. Rather and Mr.Hall.
Love Daryl Hall ....amazing person .... great talent.....fantastic how he looks at 76 years old.....😊wow ....♥👍
No, he's a complete arrogant jack wipe!
Love Daryl & Daryl's House ❤🔥
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Hall and Oates. Yes the artists do all the work and the label takes all the money
Darryl is from my town of Pottstown, Pa but his last name was different and he has his show name he uses . He walked by me at a place called zerns in Gilbertsville some years ago and i didn't pay attention till my brother said who it was . One of the famous from Pottstown and also Taylor Swift
These two guys had some super hits during the 80's and 90's, and I have them all!
Very good interview & the truth on the music business....
Can't believe he's now 76 😮
Richmond, Texas 1980, at that time unheard of. Epic
Nothing better than Daryl's house so many great jams with great artists
I believe it was New Year's 1990 down in Florida I saw them in concert. I have seen a lot of concerts but I never heard someone do singing like Daryl Hall in his prime. It was the most amazing concert I have ever heard in my life.
This was great!
