Hey Drew,
Along The Red Ledge was indeed a legitimate release in 1996 on RCA. It was
in-print for at least two years, because I bought it at Virgin Megastore in
'98. An excellent album! I also love Beauty On A Backstreet, especially
the rockin' "You Must Be Good For Something", a song which finished in my
Top 5 in 1977.

There was a Hall & Oates box set slated for release in early 2002, but it's
apparently been scrapped. That's a real pity...
