I was at Rick's home Recording With Him (80's) & He Played His Original Song Downtown Life That He Had Just Written. When The Record Was released I was amazed at the lack of Credit Applied. (Not To Mention countless other songs). Sadly I I Just Learned Of Rick's Passing online. We were to get together and I was about to call him & found his obituary online and I Am deeply Saddened & Shocked. We Wrote A lot of songs together that he will get credit for should they ever become well known, Although He Kept Insisting He Did Not Want Credit.And Most importantly I Wish to Extend My DEEPEST CONDOLENCES TO Ricks Family....I Spoke with Rick a couple of years ago & he was excited about his new home & He also expressed to me he had married his high school sweetheart. Any time we spoke it was always great conversation and it was always uplifting. Some of my songs are now getting airplay Largely In Part From What I Learned From Rick. "The Difference Between A Demo & A Record" I could continue On & On About Rick but any time I would ask his advise He Would Always Reply. "Tom Take The Path Of The Least Resistance" Heartbroken.....

Your brother did a great job on this song. It was kinda lost in 80s production but its a very well crafted song, great chords, love the way the middle section goes back into the outro choruses. Daryl sung a killer vocal on the studio version too - must be a treat to hear the rehearsal versions. RIP to your brother buddy.

@nopethegeek, Thank you. There is more interesting back story. Rick recorded a career retrospect and in it described about how that song came about, two different songs written at the same time. The other one (by Daryl & John I believe) didn't make the cut, this one made it instead. I actually have a partial cut of that unreleased song that I just found in some tapes Rick left behind. On it is also the initial phone conversation between Rick and John planning to write this one-Pretty cool stuff.

I too thought Tony was awesome. A shame he didn't stay with the band.

That was their trademark back in the 80's! Built up the energy, starting with percussion, then bass, then keys, then guitar, then John and finally Daryl hitting the stage!

Sorry to hear of your brothers passing. This is one of my all-time favorite tracks by H&O. I remember when it was released as a single, and I figured it would shoot to #1. I was very sad when it petered out at #31 on the US charts. I know also that the song was originally intended for the Beverly Hills Cop II soundtrack, but after hearing the final mix, Daryl and John wanted it all to themselves (or so the story went in an interview back in the day)

This song was written by my late brother, Rick Iantosca ( ref: allmusic com - Rick Iantosca) together with John Oates. Rick recently passed away this past March. I've been listening to private tracks of this song while the vocals were being practiced by Darel in the studio. I think this was the best song they ever did, but I am not biased at all :-) RIP Rick, you were terribly under-credited for the immense amount of songwriting and rewriting of so many hit songs for so many major artists.

I'm only 19 but I'm telling you these guys are one of my favorite groups ever. I grew up with my Dad playing Hall and Oates all the time, I've seen them live myself twice, and I simply can't get enough of them!

I just watched this for the 1st time and it just floored me with memories, this is one of those basically unknown gems in their vastly underrated yet vast catalog. Thank YOU, lonekoxox, for posting this. I'm sure to watch it a zillion times again!
