I wouldn't slag off Daryl Hall (no relation) so quickly. Sure most of his
stuff with Oates is pure pap for modern morons, but the tunes he sings on
on _Exposure_ (You Burn Me Up I'm a Cigarette, North Star, Chicago <--(does
he sing this one?)) are first rate. His solo album _Sacred Songs_, produced
by and featuring Fripp, also has great stuff on it, like "The Farther Away
I Am", "Why Was It So Easy", "Babs and Babs" and "NYCNY" (the transition from
the tranquil "Urban Landscape", a nice little piece of Frippertronics, to the
frenetic "NYCNY" is great for getting people to jump out of their chairs).
"At least I know what's happening
and I know where I stand."
