Hall & Oates - Live At The Apollo [1985]"Hall & Oates resurrected the fading careers of ex-Temptations stars David Ruffin and Eddie Kendricks. H&O took them on tour, paid them regularly, and arranged a record deal for them with RCA, but the relationship soured for unknown reasons.

No, no....not that. But, maybe some of you are thinking, "Hall & Oates? Can't you find some serious music??"
