Soul Alone is the third studio album by American singer and musician Daryl Hall, released in 1993 on Epic Records. Distinct from the sound of his successful duo Hall & Oates, this album features a more soulful and jazzy feel, with production by Hall with Peter Lord Moreland and V. Jeffrey Smith from R&B group The Family Stand, and Michael Peden. Soul Alone features singer Mariah Carey, Alan Gorrie from the Average White Band, and producer/multi-instrumentalist Walter Afanasieff as composers.[2] Four singles were released from the album: "I'm in a Philly Mood," "Stop Loving Me, Stop Loving You," "Help Me Find a Way to Your Heart" and "Wildfire."[3] The Japanese version of the album came with an extra 12th track, "I've Finally Seen the Light."
Songwriter Janna Allen, who co-composed "Written in Stone" (the only song on the album Hall didn't have a hand in writing), died two weeks before the album's release.[citation needed] In addition to being a longtime musical collaborator of Hall's, she was the sister of his longtime girlfriend Sara Allen.
