1. Footsteps in the dark!

[Kahuna]

2. Harvest For the World... A 70s joint...

If you haven't heard it, you must do so ASAP. It's got a peace and anti-war theme. And it rocks!

[Richardo]

6. Harvest for the World - my "Other" vote too...gmta Kahuna

Check it out... :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Second chioce would be "Fight the Power"

[GOPisEvil]

3. In these times, FIGHT THE POWER!

*raises fist*

[NYYFan]

4. Fight the Power- and actually- The Isleys will be here

in Winston-Salem, NC in two weeks.

[never cry wolf]

5. Summer Breeze

Kicks Seals and Crofts ass 2 ways to sunday!!

[NightTrain]

7. Love that guitar riff!

Bringing their younger cousin(s) into the band in the early '70s was a sound move!

8. If you're talking guitars and relatives,

the guitar player is ERNIE ISLEY, the youngest BROTHER.

And while were one the subject of Isleys, as much as I love Ronald, I think the "Mr. Biggs" shtick is getting TOO old. All of his songs in the last 3, 4 years are all about the same thing: much younger woman cheating on her much older man -- who has given her the world and more. Besides, the women Ronald's singing to and about are young enough to be his GRANDDAUGHTERS -- the hell with daughters! (Ronald is in his late 60s.)

11. I agree

I love the guitar part on that song! My other favorites are "That Lady", "This Old Heart of Mine", "Footsteps in the Dark", and "For the Love of You", but there is a lot by the Isley Brothers that I haven't heard. They do a nice cover of Todd Rundgren's "Hello, It's Me" as well.

10. I dug and found this

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!


How can you not have Footsteps In The Dark, For The Love, or Between The Sheets on here??????????!!!!!!!!!!????????????

Most people who like soul, old school, and r&b think that's their best 3 songs!!!

Sorry for the outcry, but I'm a huge Isley fan.

Ronald Isley said For The Love is one of his favorites, but I personally vote for Footsteps In The Dark.

12. I agree on all three...they practically define the whole 70's deep

R&B movement.
