    One of my all-time favorite songs. My dad played this a lot when I was growing up and I've loved it since I was a little kid (this came out in 1975). Ronald Isley's voice is the definition of smooth. The vocals, the lyrics, the music, this song is just great on all levels. You mentioned doing more Isley Brothers songs, there are a LOT of them that are great.

    The Isleys are probably the only act to have a hit single in each decade from the 1950s to the 2000s. Check out "Midnight Sky", "Fight The Power", & "Harvest For The World", "Shout (Part 1 & 2)", & "Work To Do". Also try "Caravan Of Love" by the offshoot band Isley Jasper Isley.

The Isley Brothers have been singing for decades & they are R&B Royalty. I think you will enjoy "Harvest for the World" It's relevant to what's going on today but literally any of their songs are good. Ron Isley is the one sitting with the orange outfit.

    the Isely brothers have been with me all my life I'm in my 50s. This particular Group at the time of this song was the 3+3 meaning 3 of the original line up the older Isely Bros plus the 2 younger bros and brother-in-law Chris jasper. The younger Group members produced and crafted the music that dominated the Mid 70s thru the 80s and They all sang with Ron as the main Front man. we even got to see the younger ones form a new Group with Chris jasper as the Front man and they had a string of hits with Caravan of love and Insatiable woman. The older bros still did there thing too as they continued to record various records, we even heard the oldest brother Okelly Isely before he passed lead a song where you couldn't tell him from Ronald!!! that's how talented this group is. Till this day they can still serve some heat lol and they do as they evolved with the times. So thankful for their music has inspired me.

    Guys, there is a deep rabbit hole of great music from the Isleys! The original three brothers had a very different sound in the 50's and 60's. The best known is probably "Shout!" because the Beatles covered it, but my favorite is a romantic upbeat song, This "Old Heart of Mine". Their 70's music is even more legendary!! great covers of their own, plus sweet ballads like this. Try "Voyage to Atlantis" "Footsteps (in the Dark)"!

    "Shout" was always a favorite at company parties 15 to 20 years after it came out. I think it was released in 59, especially side 2

    Hall of Famers, legendary group with hugely talented musicians. 🔥🔥 For an example of the Opposite end of the jam spectrum, switch up the pace to their classic, "Who's That Lady." Their catalog is full of r&b classic hits.😍 "Harvest for the world" is a timeless message close to your hearts.

    Back in the day, we called this baby-making music (with good reason).

    Ron and Ernie (lead singer and guitarist) are still performing today. Ron is on a current song with Beyonce. Jimi Hendrix played guitar for them back in the 60s. He also lived at their house for a while.

    Back in the day the Isley Brothers albums were labeled "Side A: Dancing," and "Side B: Romancing." Some Side A cuts to check out: "Living in the Life," "Hope You Feel Better Love," "Climbing Up the Ladder," and "Say You Will." On those songs you'll get to hear Ernie Isley kill it on guitar. A unique cut is "Ain't I Been Good to You." It starts out with a funky groove, then Ron Isley slows it down and repeats the lyrics in a bluesy vibe, and then Ernie comes in and makes his guitar sing with his brother's vocals.

    I almost got myself in BIG trouble at an Isley Brothers concert. It was about 1970 and they were doing a free outdoor concert on the riverfront. I had my pilots license before I graduated high school and I was just a dumb kid at the time. I buzzed the concert, luckily nobody took down my tail numbers and the only people who knew it was me were my passenger and a few friends he told. Word spread with the local kids but nobody could prove a thing.
