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.Soul Alone featured singer Mariah Carey and producer/multi-instrumentalist Walter Afanasieff as composers. One single was released from the album, the track "I'm in a Philly Mood". 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.

The album's single, I'm In A Philly Mood, went to #82 on the Hot 100 on October 2, 1993 and remained on the chart for two weeks.
