Biography

The six sons of Sally and O'Kelly Isley became one of the greatest soul and funk bands of the 60s and 70s, with many classic tracks to their name including "Shout!", "Twist and Shout!", "It's Your Thing", "That Lady" and "Summer Breeze".

Editorial Reviews

The Isley Brothers left Motown in 1968 and re-launched their T-Neck label through Buddah Records early the following year. This album was the first release for their revived imprint and it celebrated the group s newfound artistic freedom in the album s title. The album became a smash as the single 'It s Your Thing' rose all the way to #2 on the R&B charts. The success of that single catapulted the album all the way to #22 on the pop album charts. The band s instincts to move towards a funkier feel and a more prominent horn section appeared to intersect perfectly with popular tastes at the end of the sixties. 'It's Our Thing' has never before been issued as a stand-alone CD, and this Iconoclassic release marks the first time that the majority of this material has been remastered from the original master tapes. --This text refers to an alternate Audio CD edition.

Format:Audio CD
This is the Isley Brothers first release on their T-Neck label and it turned out to be a classic by them too. Besides the obvious track "It's Your Thing", I also enjoyed the track "I Know Who You Been Socking It Too". So glad to see that it is now available.

Early old school soul February 28, 2011
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This one of many perfect Isley Brothers recordings. This is the early part of their career before the 70's funk becomes the common sound for the Isleys. The old school soul is nice and familiar, not a bad song in the bunch. The funky Isleys are much more fun, but the early recordings will not disappoint.
