Review by David Dadekian

The Essential Isley Brothers is a compilation album that showcases the best of the legendary R&B group. From their early hits like "Twist and Shout" and "Shout" to their more soulful tunes like "For the Love of You" and "Harvest for the World," this album offers a comprehensive overview of the Isley Brothers' impressive career.

The album features 35 tracks, spanning over four decades of the group's music. It includes classic songs like "It's Your Thing," "That Lady," and "Summer Breeze," as well as lesser-known tracks that are just as impressive. The album also features collaborations with other artists, such as Santana and Ronald Isley's duet with Rod Stewart, "This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You)."

"FUNK SOUL BROTHERS"THE ISLEY BROTHERS-ESSENTIAL ISLEY BROTHERS:Few compilations offer such a worthy summation of the Isley Brothers' multi-faceted, incalculably influential career, which continued for a half century after their first hit, the gospel frathouse anthem SHOUT. Nearly every phase pops up here...their raw, early RNB successes (TWIST AND SHOUT, RESPECTABLE)...soul/pop smashes (IT'S YOUR THING, THIS OLD HEART OF MINE)...smooth interpretations of others' work (LOVE THE ONE YOU'RE WITH, SUMMER BREEZE)...funk-infested chart-stranglers (FIGHT THE POWER and THAT LADY, the latter showcasing second generation Isley Brother Ernie's Hendrixian guitar bravado)...slick, silky ballad work (BETWEEN THE SHEETS)...and most recently, a string of popular R. KELLY productions that brought Ronald (aka Mr. Biggs) to yet another generation. Ronald Isley possesses some of the mightiest soul-searing pipes in the biz and the group had songwriting chops to spare...just ask the multitude of artists, from Joey Dee and The Doobies to Joan Jett and Joss Stone, who tackled their material. THE ESSENTIAL ISLEY BROTHERS deserves a treasured spot in any serious-minded rock, funk, or RNB fanatics' collection. RATING: FIVE SHOUTS!

This is a great money song ?❤?
You ain't got to work hard all you got to do is get rid of your mayors that are not working for you that's the only thing you should do if your mayor is not working for you when you're homeless or when you need help and the mental health department then get rid of that bald headed mayor ?
I'm taking care of business woman can't you see
I get so much done when listening to this song. It's motivating. The Isley brothers. What more is there to say. So glad I grew up listening to these legends.
These Mayors got a lot of work to do because they're not changing their cities we've been I've been here since 1957 and these Mayors are not doing anything and so is this government I wouldn't vote for none of them I wouldn't vote for top to bottom I would have to find a place to build myself me and God and see if we can make it right who raised these cornball mayors they're cornballs until you get rid of these corn boiled mayors and try to put someone in there that really cares about your city you will always have a cornball world ????
Gotta say, it’s a toss up for me who does it better, the Isleys or AWB. This is a more laid back feel than AWB with Steve Ferrone on drums. They’re both a blast to play.
I love how this songs starts
Yeaaaaaaaah
I like to spend a lot more time with you but I have work to do I got to try to figure out these mayors that are working around the country why they not doing nothing for your city why do you have these week leaders why do you have these weak Mayors around the country no wonder you vote for these week people and what do they do they don't give you nothing in return so why do you vote for these leaders that don't give you any housing in return have a blessed day these leaders what's wrong with your corn balls ✍️?????
Keep your love life burning and don't forget your Mayors around the world are not really protecting the people they're not really caring about you the only caring about what they can get from you after they get what they want from you they throw you out in the street what mayor will consider having all these people homeless I can't understand why all these leaders that are supposed to be Mayors why is your country so corrupted you're not doing your job as a mayor yo you need a step down cuz all you doing is carrying water on the brain ??????
Work 2 do. I gotta make it for you an me!.! Ha! Lee, London
First heard this jam on a 9-11 documentary and fell in love with it. What a great song that speaks truth!
