'For The Love Of You' is one of my favourite all time slow ballad/groove songs of all time

i havent really heard any of Ron Isley's recent albums. Apparently R Kelly handled most of the production.

Has anyone heard what theyre like?

I've been getting into old school soul and R&B lately too, the Isley's are definately something I'm gonna get into. Right now I'm getting my Marvin Gaye stuff together, but yeah the Isley's... Gotta get on that too. I mean you bump into these tracks every now and then, and you realize you already know them and you're feelin' them. Same thing with Gaye.

Better late than never lol. The Isleys have timeless classic soul.  They've managed to stay relevant for over 4 decades for a reason ;)  It's a breath of fresh air to sit back and enjoy some of that school music.  My collection is nowhere near where I want it to be, but it's definitely something I'm working on building.

'For The Love Of You' is one of my favourite all time slow ballad/groove songs of all time
