Skin color does not always equate soul and Daryl Hall & John Oates are evidence of that.
Direct descendants of & heavily influenced by the Gamble & Huff sound, their music can easily be classified as Rock’n Soul — a mixture of pop with underlying layers of soul. With this one, they apply their own arrangements to give a H&O take to Teddy P’s “Love TKO.”
My favorite white boys.

Great post. Remember when your boy tried to hate on them in his “guilty pleasures” post…?!
“Serah Smile” always reminds me of that one Boondocks episode with usher.
The Average White Band was better but I can dig this.
AWB made better rap samples but that’s about it… “Kiss on My List” s one of the best songs made in the entire 1980s…
