About Isley Brothers - Isley Brothers Greatest Hits 1
For more than 40 years, the Isley Brothers have preached the sexy, salty gospel of R&B. With stinging rock & roll guitars (supplied by Ernie) and satiny, seductive vocals (courtesy of Ronald), this family from Teaneck, New Jersey, has been responsible for some of the most popular and groundbreaking hits in rhythm & blues. Their songs are not only classic jams, but, as this collection proves, hotter than most current radio fare. The funk is brought on the throbbing "That Lady" and the fiery "Fight the Power." The love is made on lilting ballads "For the Love of You" and the heavily sampled "Footsteps in the Dark"; the party starts on the finger-popping "It's Your Thing." All of it makes this album a must for lovers of soul. --Amy Linden Amazon.com

These guys know how to rock......and they know how to put you in the mood too. It is a collection that i treasure!!
November 2, 2007I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY HUSBAND AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT AND HE LOVED IT.
July 10, 2006Overall, this album is amazing. There are seventy songs, all of them Isley classics. It is a perfect example of the beauty of Isley Brothers voices and I love listening to it. "Between the Sheets" and "Groove with You" are two of my favorites, and show the signature velvet voices of the group. The sounds of the brother's Rudolph, O'Kelly, Ronald, Marvin, Ernie & Chris Jasper are truly like no other. I know it may sound silly, but Ron Isley's voice is just one step below Elvis Presley. I know they aren't usually compared, but they both have velvety beautiful voices that you just cannot turn off. To me, these are the best slow songs off all time. If you are in love or have ever been in love, as we all have been, this CD is a must. It does not matter how old or young you are, the Isley Brothers are wonderful to hear!
May 18, 2006I'm a fairly new Isley Brothers fan and this compilation is great.. it's fun to be able to hear these 70 songs because I've heard them sampled by both Tupac and Biggie.. Ronald Isley has an amazing, flexible and powerful voice... the musicianship is also fantastic!!!
April 22, 2006A good album with most of their classic hits. But I just don't understand how you can have an Isley Brother's Greatest Hits album without including one of their best songs, "This Old heart of Mine". A very serious omission if you ask me.
