Daryl Hall and John Oates met as teenagers in Philadelphia and released their debut album 'Abandoned Luncheonette' in 1973. Their commercial breakthrough came a few years later with the 1976 album 'Bigger Than Both of Us,' which included the singles 'Sara Smile' and 'Rich Girl.' Through the late 1970s and early 1980s, they had a string of hits that defined a certain pop sound of the era.
