The Isley Brothers - Winner Takes All (T-Neck Records - 1979)



The Isley Brothers - Winner Takes All

Another one from my favorite band of brothers. In fact, I am trying to collect their entire discography actually so you might find them often posted. This one wear the title of capitalism system number one rule. It allowed the Isley Brothers to capitalize on their sole name. They didn't want to break the rules, with their double album Winner Takes All: they just wanted to make money, doing what they've been known for doing well. Ernie Isley, Marvin Isley, Chris Jasper, Rudolph Isley , O.'Kelly Isley and Ronald Isley released very well executed and nice love downtempo songs for the ladies with a few funky and disco joints just for the charts and the clubs. A classic and unavoidable strategy in R&B, that still works nowadays.
