My Take

Ernie Isley sits at the heart of one of American music's great dynasties. As a member of The Isley Brothers, he helped shape decades of soul, funk and R&B, and his guitar work gave the group a rock edge that set them apart. I always appreciate when a family band has a player who can genuinely shred, and Isley's playing carries that weight. The splinter project Isley-Jasper-Isley shows he wasn't content to just hold a slot in a famous lineup. Born in Cincinnati in 1952, he's a songwriter as much as a guitarist, and that dual craft is what I find most enduring about him.

Overview

Ernest Isley (born March 7, 1952) is an American musician best known as a member of the musical ensemble The Isley Brothers, and also the splinter group Isley-Jasper-Isley.
