"It's Out Of The Question" is an incredible song, not a candidate for a 45 release, but smokey being Smokey.
I have posted this before, the Isley Brothers Anthology from 2-3 years ago is almost insulting. The paucity of notes, who, what, where, when, and why almost seemed too much to ask for. Ronnie Isley never sang a bad note during his Motown stay, they deserve a better anthology than this. Haven't they suffered enough already? The "This Old Heart of Mine" cover,......Really?
Sadly, I thought I read somewhere that there isn't much left in the vaults of The Isley Brothers.
