No one masters covers like Ron Isley... from back in the day, onward. He takes tunes from non-soul genres and moves into them, literally, with his accompanying sensual band. He squeezes notes into a place no one else can and throws us down!

One of best groups to ever exist,they cannot be duplicated.

Bruh! How can you duplicate those smooth vocals by the Ron backed smartly by Rudolph and O'Kelly (RIP) , those crisp guitar licks by Ernie and Marvin (RIP) that stout keyboard work by Chris Jasper...you can't! And you know this...

I'm 61yrs old and listened to all the black groups in the 70's but was a teenager doing my own thing, but now just really listening to the music of that era and truly enjoying it...the Isley brothers, FB & Maze and Al Green are 3 of my favorites...Ahhhh🤗 the good days...
