John Oates poses exclusively for the New York Post as he embarks on a solo career with his new album, “Reunion,” after his falling out with Hall & Oates’ Daryl Hall. “The irony behind the title has nothing to do with what was going on with Daryl and I in terms of not working together,” he says. “It really was inspired by my 100-year-old dad [Al].”
