This might shock a few of you, but I have no use for their Motown era, and I certainly have no use for the older cats after the younger ones left.
Favorite albums:
It's Our Thing
Brother, Brother, Brother
Live It Up
Fight The Power
Harvest For the World
Go For Your Guns
Showdown
Go All The Way
Inside You
Broadway's Closer To Sunset Blvd.
Caravan Of Love
When Chris Jasper left The Isley Brothers and formed Isley-Jasper-Isley, the Isley Brothers never again wrote or played their own music. That is because brother-in-law Chris Jasper was the composer behind all of those Isley Brothers and Isley-Jasper-Isley hits. If you want to know where the "Isley Brothers" sound went, just visit Chris's website where you can hear his solo music following the IJI breakup to present... more than 12 solo albums with all great music, including 4 gospel albums! And his new CD will be released this September...it is spectacular! So if you are missing that classic Isley Brothers/Isley-Jasper-Isley sound, please follow Chris Jasper and please spread the word!
