Daryl Hall's solo debut
Yet another masterwork deemed uncommercial and shelved by music executives. This might be my favorite platter of wax Daryl's ever made. Check it out if you haven't already done so. | |

"Why Was it So Easy" is my favorite song from this criminally unappreciated album. It's certainly one of his most emotional and tender songs. | |

I have downloaded it some years ago but I've never really listened to it, now I want to do so.. , "3 hearts in the happy ending machine", his second solo album was a great underrated one too , certainly more commercial. | |

I have to find this. I love Daryl Hall, and I'm a huge King Crimson fan, so to see Robert Fripp producing this is intriguing. Change it one more time.. | |

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Interesting interview with Daryl where he's asked about working with Robert Fripp. God, I can't stand the music business.
