The Vinyl Countdown # 266 

Daryl Hall & John Oates, Voices (1980) Just a great run of singles here – but also some weird folly-stuff too. Oddly a cover of You’ve Lost That Lovin Feeling (which no one really needs) was very popular. And yet their own Everytime You Go Away had to wait to be covered to really be a hit. Strange.

Hall & Oates, X-Static (1979) I’m revisiting Hall & Oates – not only that I’m learning on the job. This album is a bridge between the end of their soul (and rock) days and the start of their full-onslaught 80s pop. (That’s the stuff I grew up with). Here we have them stopping over at the new wave […]
