Blue-Eyed Soul and New-Wave Pop Duo Dominated the Charts: Enjoy all the group’s signature songs from the 1970s and 80s, from “Sara Smile” to “Maneater”.

Other compilations have longer track lists and go farther back into their career, but no Hall and Oates greatest-hits collection surpasses Rock ’n Soul Part I. Originally released at the height of the duo’s career in fall 1983, the 12-song set functions as a time machine back into an era when Daryl Hall and John Oates dominated the charts with songs that have long since become standards. While a majority of the anthology draws from the group’s trio of mammoth RCA albums spanning 1980 through 1982, it also includes the pair’s only three Top 10 smashes from the 1970s: “Sara Smile,” “She’s Gone,” and the chart-topping “Rich Girl.” This music remains the prototype intersection of blue-eyed soul, edgy new wave, and dance—blueprints for pop mastery. One-stop shopping for the absolute best of Hall and Oates doesn’t come any easier.

Mastered from the original master tapes, Mobile Fidelity’s 180g vinyl LP and SACD reissues present nine Top 10 Hall and Oates singles with awe-inspiring detail and palpable realism. Lifelike tones grace the array of guitars, pianos, basses, and voices placed against synthesized backdrops. Each member’s singing claims enhanced intimacy and balance. The collective harmonies sound sharper, the dynamics richer, and the soundstages wider and deeper. With just one listen to these definitive-sounding versions of Rock ’n Soul Part I, you’ll understand why the duo’s music not only ruled radio and record stores in the Reagan era but continues to be referenced by influential artists today.
