Review by Syed Gilani

Masterpiece by Isley Brothers is a soulful and groovy album that showcases the band's musical prowess and creativity. Released in 1985, the album features a mix of upbeat and slow-tempo tracks that highlight the Isley Brothers' signature sound and smooth harmonies.

The album's title track, "Masterpiece," is a standout with its infectious rhythm and catchy chorus. The song is a testament to the Isley Brothers' ability to create timeless music that transcends generations. Another standout track is "Choosey Lover," a romantic ballad that showcases the band's vocal range and emotional depth.

Throughout the album, the Isley Brothers experiment with different genres, incorporating elements of funk, rock, and R&B. Tracks like "Bedtime" and "Let's Fall in Love" are soulful and romantic, while "Young Girls" and "Party Night" are upbeat and danceable.
