    John Oates...what the hell? The guy for decades who took a backseat to Daryl Hall for years just threw it down for us. You are more than just a guitar player an back up singer as portrayed in every article.

      ​@@jasonfeathers7958Haha, it seems it's not about performing but selling his copyrights to a third party. The breach of contract case is about John sharing their private business-contracts without Daryl's permission. Hopefully they work it out with the lawyers....

    • @HungryForHeat

      You should listen to their EARLY, earlier stuff from the 70's. One of their least favourite albums they recorded, but one of my favourite, Beauty On A Back Street has two songs John wrote and sang, "The Girl Who Used To Be", and "The Emptyness". Him and Daryl definitely had different writing/singing/performing skills, but found ways to make it work. And. I guess that meant that John was kind of the second man. Even though, I never saw it that way. But, it's hard to argue that Daryl really was the front singer for most all of their songs. I was 10 years old in 1981, and not only became a huge fan of theirs because of Rich Girl, Private Eyes, Can't Go For That, You Make My Dreams, etc, but I became a huge fan, even at that age, and for many years to come of their earlier stuff, because I was that nerdy 12 year kid who bought ALL of their albums from old shops that carried everything from Voices, at that time, all the way back to Whole Oats. I have every album, Past Times, Abandoned Luncheonette, A Live album from the 70's, War Babies, all of it. I think you will really enjoy the two I mentioned from Beauty On A Back Street by John if you haven't already heard them. Check them out!

      Yeah, he's so underrated that he sold millions of albums. Was one of the top acts of the 80's. He was inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, and he and Daryll Hall sell out concerts tickets at every show.
      Sure...

    John displays fine musicianship here, great delivery, embellishments and arrangement. Often times partners in a band do their own version that sucks compared to the original, this is not the case here or in any song John has reimagined. Perfecto, keep giving us more interpretations John your performances are enhancing the catalog and your persona as a man and a musician. Daryl should be proud of you. The legal battle between the duo confirms the realities of life. I hope both parties come to a good resolution soon. This from a Diehard Daryl Hall and John Oates fan as a duo and as solo acts. John keep showing us how its done musically and how to keep the music playing.
