A hard title to carry for most groups, but just about any release by the Isley Brothers is a masterpiece in our book! Even at this mid 80s point, the Brothers sound great -ndash; sliding along in some warm mellow tracks that make the album really worth owning 0ndash; the kind of laidback soul tunes they first started crafting so well in the previous decade, and which continue to sparkle here
