Classic Soul LP Series Isley Brothers - The Heat is On Released in 1975AD the Isley Guys spend 4 weeks at on the Soul charts with this now classic LP.
The Heat Is On (Parts 1 & 2) (Album Version).
The Heat Is On is the thirteenth studio album by American soul and funk group The Isley Brothers, released June 7, 1975 on T-Neck Records and Epic Records.
One of the 3 + 3 gems that no Isleys fans should be without is The Heat Is On, which is best known for the sweaty funk classic "Fight the Power" and the sexy quiet storm slow jam "For the Love of Yo. Lead vocalist Ronald Isley is as convincing on the funk scorchers as he is on caressing ballads like "Make Me Say It Again Girl" and "Sensuality. Meanwhile, "Hope You Feel Better Love" is brilliant because it contrasts those two sides of the 3 + 3 lineup - the verses are sweetly melodic, but the chorus is forceful and explosive

The Isley Brothers first appeared on Billboard in 1959, when "Shout (Part 1)" made its way to 47 on the Hot 100. They last cracked the charts in 2006, with "Just Came Here to Chill" petering out at 25 on the R&B charts. Few other artists can match that kind of longevity and, fittingly, the band's biggest hits still resonate. What the Isley Brothers achieved can't be contained in a single album nor can it be adequately summarized in a hits collection. They seized all the tumult, all the excitement, all of the sounds of their time and turned it into enduring commercial art whose endurance and depth is best appreciated in a set like this, where the actual records can be heard in their entirety.
The first decade mentioned in the set's title is represented only by the Isleys' sole RCA album, 1959's Shout!, and a collection of early-'60s singles on which the then-unknown Jimi Hendrix was their guitarist (a spell on Motown is omitted). This box's story really begins in 1969, when the vocal trio of Ronald, Rudolph and O'Kelly Isley brought in their teen brother Ernie, became a tough funk band and quickly scored a string of hits, beginning with "It's Your Thing," released on their own T-Neck label. As of 1975's double-platinum The Heat Is On, The Isley Brothers played everything themselves, and were writing all their own songs again: half ferocious dance music, half lascivious slow jams.
