Man... is this a killer set... Can anyone tell me who the other guitar player is next to John Hall.. Im wondering if it's a young GE Smith.

@willrobm That's Todd Sharp on guitar next to John Oates.

Eddie: Wasn't this the tour that Billy Joel opened up for you guiys on? I remember he had just put out "The Stranger" and nobody knew of him at the show.

[ezyne]

I can't remember all the acts that we shared billing with (I do remember some acts like Shawn Phillips, Gary Wright and Leo Sayer) but I do remember meeting Billy Joel's band in the hotel lobby before a show and finding out how long his drummer had been with him. But I can't really remember the show itself so I don't know if it was a single night or a string of them. Sometimes there's never enough time to get ready for the show back at the hotel after a sound check and making it back in time.

[mypsmells]

Was his drummer Liberty Devito at that time?

Leo Sayer? Wow!!! There's a blast from the past!

[ezyne]

Yes, it was Liberty. The Leo Sayer billing happened at The Bottom Line in NYC probably in 1975.

@scubarulz You're so lucky you grew up in Philly listening to Hall and oates. I was a teen in the 90s and I the crap I heard on the radio. I love H2O since I was 12 and I still love them. Blue eyed soul! Lol @ the artistic license comment.

[talpajam]

what kind of humbucking pickups in that Strat...??..Oates is ahead of EVH in this dept methinks..

Music Man Amps...Heart was using them in this same timeperiod...underrated methinks.

[scubarulz]

@mypsmells I concur with all your points: growing up in the Philly area during the mid '70s, many of us loved the H and O sound. The silver album was perplexing to us, tho...driving to senior yr. high school that tape played constantly, but a couple of the dudes just couldn't get past the artistic license used for Daryl's facial features...please pardon the "gay" slam, but they were being called "queer and quaker" by some. I was glad to find out they were straight, cause their music was awesome

[ainegs]

what cool lyrics

[willrobm]

@ezyne thanks 4 the get back... Nice old epiphone he's playin... yeahya

[Hokdonfonix]

Thank-you sooo much for sharing this video!!! You guys have a chemistry that can't be duplicated!!! I had an opportunity to see Hall & Oates play in '06...FINALLY...but they didn't play much of the old stuff. Wish I was a little older in '76....Maybe a reunion??? Canada??? Stratford, Ontario is nice!!!! Anyways, thanks for making me smile for 35+ yrs...Love you guys!!!

@metalXhao 1st one? I guess anything on the Whole Oates album (no ones ever heard any of it). I guess you mean "She's Gone"--- from the Abandoned Luncheonette album.
