Soul Alone is a 1993 album by Daryl Hall released on Epic Records. Distinct from the sound of Daryl's successful duo Hall & Oates, this album features a more soulful and jazzy feel. However, Epic failed to find a marketing niche for Hall's new sound, and the album was not a commercial success.[citation needed] Soul Alone featured singer Mariah Carey and producer/multi-instrumentalist Walter Afanasieff as composers.[2] One single was released from the album, the track "I'm in a Philly Mood".[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. In addition to being a longtime musical collaborator of Hall's, she was the sister of his longtime girlfriend Sara Allen.
