The Isley Brothers Appreciation Thread

[Taadow]

Chris Jasper is by far the most unappreciated element in regards to the Isley Brothers success but the IB are GOAT tier

I agree...but they made classics without him.

I agree...but they made classics without him.

Of course.

But a majority of the songs that still get airplay and are most remembered were penned by Jasper.

Objective top 5 group all time


Taught Jimi how to play

 

[I love Latina women]

This another favorite of mine. I could just sit somewhere in the park and just listen to this all day.

 

[The M.I.C.]

My personal favorite, Harvest for the World....Footsteps In The Dark, Between The Sheets, Voyage To Atlantis, Don't Say Goodnight, Make Me Say It Again, That Lady, Groove With You, Brown Eyed Girl, For The Love Of You, Fight The Power...all penned by Jasper. Breh helped keep the Isleys going through the 70's into the early 80s.

It's not just the pen, doe...Chris was a good arranger and melody man.
As we can see from this.



And it's no secret that Ron needs somebody to write him a song. But when he gets one, he gone KILL it.
He come off even when fuccin' wit' that Bachrach catalogue to the R.Kelly work.

 

[Marc Spector]

Was always crazy to me this wasnt in any of the Guitar Hero games.

All facts btw.

 

[Marc Spector]

One of my faves. Repped @stomachlines cuz the Isleys are my favorite Old School act and were so far ahead of their time. So much of their sound influenced and sampled so many classic RnB/Rap Songs.

 

[The M.I.C.]

shyt has a nikka having flashbacks.

The McDonalds I used to work at as a kid used to play nothing but Isley Brothers in the restaurant..Footsteps In The Dark used to have me going through emotional turmoil trying to make Big Macs and keep the fries from burning.

 

[Seven1986]

The Isley Brothers have so many classic songs

 

[The M.I.C.]

Real nikkas anthem.
