Today is Daryl Hall’s 77th birthday and to celebrate, we go back to 1976 for today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45 for a song you can hear again on American Top 40 this Saturday morning, from Hall & Oates it’s “She’s Gone”.
The Philly duo formed in 1970 and mixed rock, soul, and rhythm & blues to become one of the most decorated duos in music history with 29 top 40 hits between 1974 and 1991. “She’s Gone” was their second hit, reaching #7 on the charts that year from their 1973 “Abandoned Luncheonette” album. The song was re-released and became a hit after the success of “Sara Smile”.
Members of the Songwriters Hall of Fame, this song still holds up after all these years, it’s Daryl Hall & John Oates with “She’s Gone” today’s Forgotten 45!
