Daryl Hall – Sacred Songs. As featured in this month’s Mojo, been meaning to check it out for ages. Tis surprisingly nice, even if there’s a weird force-fit of sounds occurring at times.
I bought this last year after reading about the Fripp Trilogy (Exposure, Peter Gabriel II, Sacred Songs), and found myself enjoying Darryl Hall for the first time since I heard Maneater at age 5 (I used to pretend my stuffies were a rock band, and made a mix tape of their "album" from Hall & Oates and Huey Lewis....I even drew leather pants on my stuffed bunny, and gave them safety pin earrings, as they "toured around in my Tonka Jeep....apparently this was uncommon for my age...who knew?).In fact, I'm pleasantly surprised at how much I like all 3 of these albums, something I never thought I would given my lack of enthusiasm for King Crimson and Genesis.
