Freedom

Freedom
[1970]
Scritta e prodotta dagli Isley Brothers per la loro etichetta T-Neck
Nell’album “Get into Something”

I temi della libertà e dei diritti civili furono molto praticati dagli Isley Bothers i quali, prima ancora del loro esordio, quando giovanissimi già cantavano e suonavano insieme, videro morire un loro fratello, Vernon, investito sul marciapiede da un camionista ubriaco. L’investitore era un bianco, il bambino, tredicenne, un nero...

Fight The Power Pts. 1 & 2

Fight The Power Pts. 1 & 2
[1975]
Scritta da Ernie Isley insieme agli altri fratelli.
Primo singolo dall'album “The Heat Is On”

"Fight the Power Pts. 1 & 2 is a 1975 protest funk song by The Isley Brothers, released on their T-Neck imprint. The anti-establishment song was originally thought of by Ernie Isley while the group was recording for another socially-conscious song, Harvest for the World. [...]
The Isleys inspired a rap version of its "fight the powers that be" battle cry by Public Enemy in their even more militant version fourteen years later."

Il brano uscì come singolo, ma si trova anche incluso nell'album del 1975 dal titolo "The Heat Is On"-

Harvest for the World

Harvest for the World
Un brano del 1976.

One of their socially conscious singles (about world peace), the song was composed by Ernie Isley, who wrote most of the lyrics, together with Marvin Isley and Chris Jasper, with additional lyrics and musical arrangements added by the three original members O'Kelly, Rudolph and Ronald. The song was recorded on the same day as Fight the Power (Part 1 & 2) and was originally intended to go on The Heat Is On (album) as the lead single but Fight The Power ended up being the lead single by a group vote and was saved to go on the harvest for the world LP, and as on many Isley Brothers records, Ronald sang lead on the song while his older brothers O'Kelly and Rudolph usually backed him up.
