Reviews
"Oates offers a memoir that might lead even his greatest critics to revisit the '80s icons. . . . Charm and curiosity distinguish him from the standard-issue pop star....Plenty of entertaining anecdotes on such topics as having Hunter S. Thompson for a neighbor." -- Publishers Weekly "An exceedingly entertaining, somewhat rueful chronicle of his life . . . . Andy Warhol, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Lou Reed, Quincy Jones, Miles Davis, and Edgar Winter all make appearances." -- Booklist , starred review, "[A] fascinating memoir. . . . Highly recommended for fans of Hall & Oates and those interested in how much work it takes to be a hit act in the music business." -- Library Journal "Oates offers a memoir that might lead even his greatest critics to revisit the '80s icons. . . .

Andy Warhol, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Lou Reed, Quincy Jones, Miles Davis, and Edgar Winter all make appearances." -- Booklist , starred review "Oates has reason to boast, but his prose is workmanlike and modest; more than anything else, he comes off as a fan of many artists of the day, from the Beatles to the Temptations and the earliest manifestations of Elton John and David Bowie. There's some Zelig-like right-place, right-time things happening here, too, such as a residence at LA's famed Tropicana Motel: as he writes, nicely, 'can't say I wasn't blown away by the fabulousity of it all because I was.' There's some sex and drugs along with the rock 'n' roll, but Oates emerges, like Hall, as a pretty sensible guy who recognized when he was going off the rails; in the end, he emerges as a seeker not of pleasure but of wisdom . . . Oates' musical admirers will find much to like here." -- Kirkus Reviews, "His story stands on its own, and it's one that Oates delights in telling. . . . A charming, almost breezy retrospective. . . . Change Of Seasons is Oates' moment in the spotlight, which he handles with aplomb." -- AV Club "[A] fascinating memoir. . . .

It took lots of effort to look that smooth to the tune of 80 million copies." -- Austin American-Statesman "[A] fascinating memoir. . . .

Oates' musical admirers will find much to like here." -- Kirkus Reviews, "Hall & Oates never garnered critical respect. In their 35 years of recording, the two have never taken home a Grammy. Yet their influence - the strong R&B inflections in unabashedly slick pop arrangements - can be heard in the platinum music of such contemporary acts as Robin Thicke, Justin Timberlake and Gym Class Heroes. Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie and Brandon Flowers of the Killers have name-checked Hall & Oates in interviews. Hip-hop stars such as Kanye West and Wyclef Jean have sampled their grooves and lyrics." - Baltimore Sun

Synopsis
Includes an exclusive EP as a companion to the book! John Oates was born at the perfect time, paralleling the birth of rock 'n roll. Raised in a small Pennsylvania town, he was exposed to folk, blues, soul, and R&B. Meeting and teaming up with Daryl Hall in the late 1960s, they developed a style of music that was uniquely their own but never abandoned their roots. John uncovers the grit and struggle it took to secure a recording contract with the legendary Atlantic Records and chronicles the artistic twists and turns that resulted in a DJ discovering an obscure album track that would become their first hit record. This is not your typical rock and roll story. John was focused creating great music. Along the way he achieved incredible success, battling the ever-changing pop music landscape and coming to terms with complex managerial, business, and personal challenges. Daryl Hall and John Oates have over 20 albums together, more than 60 million records sold, and 29 Top 40 hits. They are the most successful pop duo in the world and members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. And yet John's story has never been told. Relying on his many hand-written journals, he brings to light many fascinating stories spanning his entire life with a journalist's eye and a poet's heart. In Change of Seasons, John shares his highs, lows, triumphs, and failures. He takes the reader on a wild ride through all the eras, personalities and music that has shaped him into what he is., Includes an exclusive EP as a companion to the book John Oates was born at the perfect time, paralleling the birth of rock 'n roll.
