- Hall and Oates -
Daryl Hall Diagnosed With Lime Disease
July 8, 2005 - Although many of us may suffer this summer from "Tequila and lime" disease, Daryl Hall has been felled Lyme Disease. First identified in 1977, Lyme disease is spread by ticks. After a brief incubation period symptoms such as severe headaches, painful arthritis and swelling of joints, cardiac
abnormalities, and central nervous system (CNS) involvement leading to cognitive (mental) disorders present themselves. It is treated with a variety of antibiotics. Hall is expected to make a complete recovery, but Hall and Oates has so far cancelled or postponed six dates on their current tour. The tour which was launched last month is in support of their latest release "Our Kind of Soul". - by Liz Rivard

Hall & Oates On Hollywood Rock Walk
Aug. 8, 2003 - They are the most successful duo in rock history and now Hall and Oates have found a space on the Hollywood Rockwalk. The duo were immortalized in cement via handprints and signatures on Tuesday August 5th. In April of 1984, the Recording Industry Association of America announced that Hall & Oates had surpassed the Everly Brothers as the most successful duo in the rock era earning a total of 19 gold and platinum awards. In other Hall and Oates news John Oates has finally regained control of his first solo CD "Phunk Shui" and is re-releasing it on his own label, PS Records.

Hall & Oates Not Blue-eyed Soul
April 28, 2003 - For years critics and fans alike have called Hall and Oates blue-eyed soul but John Oates(left in picture) of the band disputes the idea. He likes the ``soul'' part, but he's got brown eyes. Oates says no musician wants to be labeled because creative people try to avoid that. He says their music is about soul because it touches you adding "soul'' isn't exclusive to race or nationality or anything like that. What do they call themselves? ``Rock and soul.'' Oates says it's soul music with an aggressive edge. Both the first single '
Do It for Love' and "Forever for You' are getting airplay on Smooth Jazz radio.
