Description
Summer Breeze captures the Isley Brothers at the height of their creative and commercial powers, blending gritty funk, smooth soul, and an extraordinary gift for reimagining other artists’ material. Their electrifying version of “That Lady” remains one of the defining moments of 1970s funk, while the title track — originally by Seals & Crofts — is transformed into a languid, deeply soulful showcase for the band’s sensuous groove. The CD also includes “Harvest For The World,” a socially conscious epic that reveals the group’s ambition and emotional depth. From the hard-driving “Pop That Thang” to the tender reading of James Taylor’s “Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight,” this collection demonstrates just how wide and masterful the Isleys’ range truly was…
