one dot com. I'm Russell Ford, Coast one O three point five.
(03:58):
It's a camp miss morning here onthe l K Morning Know holl Of Oates
Public Rivals. We just heard fromDarryl Hall. He's got new music coming
out called d and here he isthe other half locked in. All right,
John Oates, how are you doingwell? How about you guys?
Hey, We're doing great, soyou are on the road, and congrats
(04:20):
on the new music. Thank you, thank you. Yeah. We think
we spoke about this about a yearago when you were in studio and we
knew that you were coming up ona super busy time. But I'm loving
reunion. I just lost my fatherat the age of ninety and my mother
had passed five years before, andhe died suddenly, but his toughest days
(04:45):
were living without my mom. Well, my dad told me that he was
going to be reuniting with our momand who passed away a number of years
ago. So that was really thecapitalist that was the inspiration where it hit
home to me, and I startedthinking about the idea of reunion and reuniting
and you know, considering what's what'sgoing on with me and there Hall,
(05:05):
and you know the fact that we'renot going to be working together anymore after
fifty years. I started really thinkingabout that, and I said, you
know what, it was time forme to reunite with myself and get back
to the essence of who I wasas who I am as a man and
a person. And you know,it's easy to lose yourself in a partnership,
and you know, any kind ofrelationship, whether it be you know,
(05:28):
marriage or whatever it might be.So and so it's been it's been
a very powerful and interesting time forme. And what did you discover about
yourself or rediscover that you thought,wow, I missed this part of me
so much? Was it just themusic making? It was a combination of
the freedom to make my own schedulebecause I've been making solo albums, you
(05:51):
know, I well, this islike seventh or eighth solo album, and
I've been doing it for over twentyyears. But I've always had to compromise
and shoehorn it in between all andoesmitments and things like that. So now
I can stay home when I wantto stay at home. I can travel
when I want to travel, Ican. You know, I can work
when I want to work, writewhen I want to write. It's it's
a it's a real sense of freedom. That's that's completely different. Do you
(06:15):
sometimes think yourself, I deserve thislike I like I am, I'm John
Oates. I deserve to be ableto do what I want when I want
it. Absolutely, I think I'veearned it, you know, I've you
know, I put in a Iput in fifty years of hard work,
commitment and you know, being youknow, trying to be a true professional,
being on time. Never I've nevercanceled a whole notes show in my
(06:38):
life. I really felt like Idid everything I could to make it as
as successful as it could be.And I'm very grateful for that success and
the legacy of music that Daryl andI created. But at the same time,
I realized that that success has enabledme to have creative freedom, and
I don't want to waste that either. So it's a it's a it's a
(06:58):
it's a new time and a veryexciting time. It's reunion. It's John
Oates, a tale of love,loss and personal rediscovery. I love that
you must feel so good. I'mfeeling good. This is a good time
in my life. It's a veryexciting time. But I'm really getting a
chance to spend a lot of timewith my wife, and we're traveling together
and doing things together, and it'sa really it's the payoff after as I
(07:21):
said, a fifty year you know, I took about it. I said,
it took me four years to graduatefrom high school, four years to
graduate from college, fifty years tograduate from Holly Oaks. So I think
you know what we're gonna do.We're gonna play pop in circumstance right now.
Don Oates, all right, thankyou so much, Kingingrats. Okay,
(07:44):

Oates didn't hold back, So he'sfree and Oates will be touring the rest
of the year and all next year. They both have new music out,
and what a coincidence that it comesout so close together. And also Daryl
(08:07):
