	The Isley Brothers
		Having been a family-based group since their inception, the Isley Brothers originated with four gospel-singing brothers: Ronald, o’Kelly, Rudolph and Vernon (the last of whom was killed in a bike accident in 1955).
		As a historical footnote, a pre-psychedelic Jimi Hendrix played guitar for the Isley Brothers in 1964, and his style can be heard in the playing of younger brother Ernie Isley, who joined the group at the end of the decade.
		Throughout the Seventies, the Isley Brothers’ rock-disco fusion - driven by a propulsive beat, Ernie Isley’s snaky funk guitar lines and the smooth, sinuous vocal blend of the three elder Isleys - generated considerable crossover appeal.

	Isley Brothers \| SoulTracks - Soul Music Biographies, News and Reviews
		The amalgamation of siblings and in-laws known as the Isley Brothers has withstood time, vast changes in musical styles, revolutionary developments in race relations, and age to become by any measure one of the most important groups of the last half-century.
		Formed in the mid-50s by brothers Ronald, Rudolph and O'Kelly Isley in their hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio, the brothers struggled for several years as teenagers to score a hit record.
		The elder Isleys continued on, scoring several minor hits over the next few years, most notably the midtempo number "Smooth Sailing Tonight." Sadly, brother O'Kelly died of a heart attack in 1986, and Rudolph left two years later to become a minister, leaving Ronald as a solo act.

		But this one is. The Isley Brothers have been part of the musical landscape for such a long time, it's almost as if they had existed forever.
		Their influence extends to the Beatles and to Jimi Hendrix, who served time in the Isley Brothers' band when he was still a scuffling youngster.
		As great and influential as the Isleys and their music have been these many decades, they have unfortunately never achieved the crossover success of Motown artists and other lesser lights of RandB.

	All Things Deep - Reviews - Isley Brothers : Eternal
		In a music industry that seems to dispense with artists after five years, it is truly amazing that the Isley Brothers are entering their sixth decade of recording.
		This cut also features a classic guitar line from Ernie Isley, who seems to finally be getting his just due as one of the best guitarists of the past thirty years.
		On "Ernie's Jam," Ronald Isley distills the essence of the Isleys to a simple lyric: "I was born to sing this music/ My brother was born to play his guitar." And Ernie responds with an explosion of controlled power that is an addition to his already extensive catalog of classic solos.

		But then my brother took the tape and it has never been seen since.
		Also did he do a little set, i also heard that the Isley brothers perfomed, I love Ronald isleys soulful voice, absolute class, i never forget that track,'For the love of you' what made that song extra specail is that kind of 'You and I ' synth keyboard sound.
		I'll never forget the time I met this wonderful, gifted brother backstage, at Motowns 25th Anniversary (Pasadena Civic Center), when I was playing with The Commodores.
