I wasnt around when the Isleys were groovin in the 60's and 70's but i can appreciate it. They show no signs of age with this release either. From start to finish this is an album that will please any true r/b fan. Here are my picks as best of the album;

Slow is the way excellent sex song. uses ron's infamous high voice to set the bedroom mood. beautiful background music and nice cameo by producer of the record keith sweat

Mission to Please R. Kelly makes a song that has been featured on the Isleys latest released geatest hits box set. Cant-Miss song with R. and Ron

Tears moves out of the bedroom and into to emotions with this Another cant-miss record

What else can i say? good to the last drop. pick it up if u like the Isleys and pick it up if u love r/b. Sleeper pick: Lets lay together another r kelly and Isley collaboration

this disc mixes comtempary r-n-b with the isley's trademark r-n-b really well. ernie still can rock on an axe with anybody in the business and ronald isley is singing better than ever.angela winbush-isley also showcases her many talents on this project writing&producing and singing great as well.

I had this CD before and it was stolen. I am buying it again because it is worth it. This CD will make you fall in love with your lady all over again.

I've had this cd for about a year and just decided to listen to it. I put it on one night while cooking dinner. The sensuality of the music and the body caressing lyrics just drove my wild with excitement. If you desire a sensual, romantic evening with someone special, light some candles, grab a bottle of wine, and lay back. I guarantee a lot of sparks will fly.

By far one of the best records out there. I loved every single on this record and listen to it daily.

This is a must have for any collection.

For all the hits that the Isley's enjoyed over the years this was the most complete album I've ever heard from these Superstars. Just when you thought the sun had set on their careers Ronald was never better as this was the ultimate set it and forget it cd. From the smooth I'm Ready to Slow Is The Way,which sould have been made a single, the message was clear let's Get Intimate. The title track Mission To Please is a lover's National Anthem and Make Your Body Shake was just smooth listening. Sorry no dance track.....didn't need it.....Not special Guest.....didn't need it.....This was Ronald and Earnie at their best....nuff said.

The ever-consistent Isley Brothers again prove that romance and sensuality is alive and well. Probably the greatest romance cd made, the YHWH-given gifts displayed by the Isley Brothers on "Mission to Please" is complete in lyrics, music and mood. If you have not shared this CD with your loved one, you are being selfish. You should have a "Mission to Please" your lover through this Isley Brothers classic.

It's no coincidence that 'Mission To Please' brought the Isleys back to prominence. Ronald was rejoined by Marvin and Ernie and with Angela Winbush contributing her voice and production talents to the album it couldn't fail (went platinum). The first 7 songs are pure soul. 'Let's Lay Together' is the killer slow jam on this cd while 'Floatin' On Your Love' is a duet by Ronald and Angela Winbush with Ernie firin' up the guitar. Also, the cover of 'Holding Back The Years' was surprisingly good. The last 3 songs I can do without. Ronald please drop the Mr. Biggs crap, don't let R.Kelly produce more than 3 songs an album, and Chris, Rudolph, and Marvin, come on back to the group.

Mission to Please definitely is not a mission. It was accomplished, when I heard this album. The Isley Brothers never disappoint when it comes to baby making music. My favorite songs on this album are Mission to Please, Make your Body Sings, and Let's get Intimate. This album is a classic. It will please you in every way.

I know what you are thinking. What does this young buck know about the Isley Brothers. Dont even play with me like that. I grew up listening to the godfathers of R&B so Im going to give them credit where credit is due. This is one of my favorite albums from the Isley Brothers. Songs like WHENEVER YOU'RE READY, LET'S LAY TOGETHER, TEARS, MISSION TO PLEASE YOU, HOLDING BACK THE YEARS(great cover of the old Simply Red classic), MAKE YOUR BODY SING and LET'S GET IMTIMATE show you that they still have it in them to make quality music after all these years. Bottom Line: This is another classic you can listen to from beginning to end without skipping songs. The Isley Brothers show that they can stlli make a solid album after all their years in the game. How many of the artists that they have inspired in the game can do that?
