iTunes Review
From its opening cymbal taps, “Fight the Power” is one of the most thrilling statements of the Isley Brothers’ 40-plus-year career. A growling synthesizer leads the way as Ronald Isley connects the dots between his neighbors’ complaints about loud music and the larger struggle. (It works, honestly.) Effective enough that it helped take 1975’s The Heat is On to the Number One spot in Billboard, it’s not the only hard-funk nugget here. “Hope You Feel Better Love” showcases Ernie Isley’s guitar heroics (some of the truest black metal of the era) in the context of Ron’s crooning reassurance. The album’s second half brings the kind of creamy stuff that helped build the Quiet Storm world as certainly as Smokey Robinson did. This remastered edition contains a live-in-studio performance of “Fight the Power” as a bonus track.

A classic
by MaxieHThat was a good review, but the reviewer failed to acknowledge that "For the Love of You" is one of the greatest Cha-Cha songs ever! Man to this day,you go to any old school party or club and everyone gets on the floor when that record come on. smile
