One of the most beautiful records to come out of the early 70s – a tremendous indie effort from a young Weldon Irvine!

A great mix of heavy funk and sweeter ballads from the Isley Brothers – and a record that's filled with two-part tracks that really let them stretch out and groove!

T Neck, 1981. Near Mint- ... $8.99
A strong extension of the Isley Brothers' funky 70s style – moving into a more compressed mode that had been taking hold of the group's style over the past few albums – giving them a smoother finish in the end, but one that actually brings out a deeper level of soul in the music!
