“There’s never been any kind of feeling of competition.” Photo-Illustration: Vulture and Photo: Lynn Goldsmith/Corbis/VCG via Getty Images Rock and roll and soul music are brothers from another mother, and few performers have dedicated their careers to accentuating the closeness of the genres as much as Daryl Hall. He cut his teeth on the Philadelphia soul scene in the 1960s before meeting John Oates, a fellow Temple University student who sang and played guitar.
Best album you ever made There are parts of many of them that I think are the best parts, but I don’t think there is one best Hall & Oates album. Truthfully, the most impactful albums to me are my solo albums. They’re the ones that matter the most to me because I liked the people I worked with. My favorite albums I’ve ever done are Three Hearts in the Happy Ending Machine with Dave Stewart and the Sacred Songs album with Robert Fripp. I find no fault with either of those albums.
Best Hall & Oates single “She’s Gone.” Because we wrote that song together. All the other songs, I wrote. Also, there was Arif Mardin, who was a genius producer and arranger. John and I, we were new to that world. We’d just started with the Atlantic Records group of people. “She’s Gone” represents a true Daryl and John collaboration.
Inspirations behind 1985’s Live at the Apollo with David Ruffin and Eddie Kendrick My life inspired it. In Philadelphia, my first records were R&B and soul songs. I met the Temptations back in the mid ’60s, when I was a kid, and became friends with them. The reason I brought them along when I was asked to reopen the Apollo in 1985 is that I felt they were the impetus and the engine that drove me in my early days.
Opinion on being categorized as “blue-eyed soul” I don’t really like it. There’s a certain kind of racist tokenism that is an underlying connotation with that. I’ve said this before: Nobody ever talks about brown-eyed opera singers. It would be offensive. I find it offensive.
