Just as James Brown commanded the stage at Harlem's Apollo theatre 20 years previous, so Daryl Hall and John Oates took to the very same stage in 1983, producing a similarly captivating and soul-packed show.

Performing a powerhouse of songs from their first ever 'best-of', the duo tore through 16 of their greatest numbers - including four from 1982's H2O album. From the flirtatious 'Italian Girls' and the moody 'Art Of A Heartbreak', to the jubilatory 'Maneater' and 'Private Eyes', what we witness on this DVD is essentially two men (aided and abetted by four of the tightest musicians in town) at their peak, which betrays a duo as skilled in close soul harmonies as they were (and are) at rocking. Hall & Oates' songwriting needs no introduction.

Their live performances are a tour de force and you have one of their very best here.
