Hall & Oates 2004: 20 years since the last major hit but still around
...these are photos from the duo's "official" web site. Oates looks pretty much the same, minus the mustache (he kind of has a Chico Marx vibe going on here) but Hall looks kind of ragged (for the record, he just turned 56 on October 11th):



D&J with Lite FM Program Director, Jim Ryan.



D&J with Lite FM DJ, Valerie Smaldone.



D&J with Tommy Mottola (the ex-"Mr. Mariah Carey") and wife, Thalia.

For me, these guys hit their peak with "Big Bam Boom" and the song "Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid," which STILL packs a punch. (The hits from this one were "Out of Touch" and "Method of Modern Love")

They've had seven albums since 1984's "Big Bam Boom" but this one is still considered by many to be the "career best."

1. They still sound great too!
How ironic "Sara Smile" was playing in my iTunes when I saw this post. (Cue Twilight Zone music)

5. Well good for them... seriously.
Though one wonders--what else would they do? ;-)
