About
The Isley Brothers, Seven decades of soul and funk starting in Cincinnati.
12 albums on vinyl from 1959 to 2017, including stereo and mono LPs, sought after worldwide with rare pressings.
The Isley Brothers began as four brothers learning to sing in church before evolving into a trio after the loss of Vernon Isley. Their early sound centered on doo-wop and R&B, leading up to the 1962 hit "Twist & Shout". They founded their own label in 1964 and briefly worked with Motown, achieving hits like "This Old Heart of Mine" (1966). Their style shifted in the late 1960s toward funk and soul, boosted by the addition of younger family members playing guitar, bass, and synthesizer.
Through the 1970s and early 1980s, they released a prolific series of albums on Epic and T-Neck labels, blending up-tempo funk/disco and slower soulful ballads, with instrumentation highlighting Ernie Isley's guitar and Chris Jasper's synth work.
