One of the few groups to chart a single in 5 consecutive decades, The Isley Brothers, gave Jimi Hendrix his start in their band. They have released a lot of important songs and defined the Quiet Storm Genre; their music is captivating and pleasing to the ear. Please take a listen here and have a good day: Shout , Twist and Shout , This old heart of mine (is weak for you) , It's your thing , Who's that lady , Fight the power , For the love of you , Between the sheets , Testify ft. Jimi Hendrix , Love is a wonderful thing , Love the one your with , (At your best) you are love , Smooth sailin' tonight and Voyage to Atlantis
