%) VISIT AMAZON.COM'S PAGE | Editorial Reviews : VH-1's Behind the Music may signify the final curtain for some acts, but Hall and Oates aren't so easily confined to the dustbins of pop history. With a chart run that spanned most of the '70s and '80s, Philadelphia's most enduring purveyors of blue-eyed soul went on to keep a fairly low profile until 'Do It for Love,' a newly recorded track for their 2002 VH-1 retrospective, crept up to the top of the adult contemporary charts. Nearly a year later, the duo reprises the track and title on a full album that aims to recapture the best aspects of their glory days. Among its highlights are a sublime cover of New Radical's 'Someday We'll Know' that teams them up with War Babies collaborator Todd Rundgren, and the funky 'Miss DJ,' a playful pop confection that avoids the excessive novelty of their more calculated '80s hits. After three decades, Hall's remains one of pop's most expressive voices. And while the album as a whole may lack the edge and energy of the pair's earliest work, it's still a promising collection from a rock duo that's earned a place in Philly soul history. --Bill Forman
Buyer Reviews : The addition of TODD to this TRio is incredible as witnessed in the song 'SOMEDAY WE'LL KNOW' these ThRee should have recorded more in the past than what they have. Anyone that saw these ThRee perform TogetheR in the summer of '02 would agree.
