Some of their best work can be found on the album Brother, Brother, Brother, but the seminal "Footsteps in the Dark" is not to be missed either. Among other accomplishments, they toured with a young guitarist named Jimmy James (later known as Jimi Hendrix -- his work can be heard on the single "Testify"). From Doo-Wop songs to Soul tracks, Funk grooves to Disco beats, the Isley Brothers have always remembered how to inject a memorable melody into every number they record. - Jessy Terry]]>

Art Neville fronted the band, bringing his keyboard and occasional vocals to their mostly instrumental songs. On tracks such as "Sophisticated Cissy" and "Look-Ka Py Py," guitarist Leo Nocentelli and bassist George Porter provided raw unison lines and turned them into pristine models of Funk. Indeed, the Meters knew more about subtleties of rhythm and space than just about anyone. Driven by the slick grooves of drummer Zigaboo Modeliste, the Meters have been sampled by more hip-hop artists than anyone this side of James Brown. They can still be found touring together in different personnel arrangements, keeping crowds on their feet all night long. - Jessy Terry]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3411&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Adult Contemporary Thu, 3 Sep 2009 10:33:52 -0700 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3411 art.3411 El DeBarge art.3411 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3411&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3411&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6171&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Funk Fri, 13 Nov 2009 12:39:03 -0800 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.6171 art.6171 The Bar-Kays art.6171 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6171&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.6171&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Breakin' soundtrack rocks the house. - Jon Pruett]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.207&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss New Orleans R&B Sat, 19 Sep 2009 12:58:27 -0700 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.207 art.207 The Neville Brothers art.207 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.207&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.207&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Yellow Moon (1989) became a crossover hit. Each family member brings a separate strength to the band's sound, showing the richness of New Orleans culture. Their songs are full of Funk grooves, R&B guitar licks, jazz saxophones, and soulful vocals, and though Aaron's dynamic, quivering voice has made him the group's breakout star, each member gets his deserved moment in the spotlight. Lately they've dropped some of their Worldbeat flourishes and returned to a more traditional Big Easy sound, only to find that the public has deserted them. Since they still brew the tastiest music around, this is simply due to the public's negligence. - Nick Dedina]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.8474&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Soul Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:51:20 -0800 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.8474 art.8474 Billy Paul art.8474 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.8474&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.8474&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss 360 Degrees of Billy Paul, which spawned the hugely successful single "Me and Mrs. Jones." He continued to release excellent material throughout the '70s, with help from Philly songwriting/production gurus Gamble and Huff. Blurring the lines between jazz, funk, blues and R&B (and later disco), his albums continued to sell well, earning him an international fan base and multiple Grammys. His output slowed in the '80s, and he announced his retirement in 1989. Since then, he has reemerged and toured extensively around the world. He released the concert album Live: World Tour in 2000, and in 2003 he received $500,000 in unpaid royalties for "Me and Mrs. Jones." - Brolin Winning]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3754&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss New Orleans R&B Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:50:59 -0800 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3754 art.3754 Allen Toussaint art.3754 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3754&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3754&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4267&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Motown Sat, 24 Oct 2009 12:06:41 -0700 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.4267 art.4267 Edwin Starr art.4267 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4267&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4267&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3174&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Classic R&B Fri, 11 Sep 2009 10:25:47 -0700 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.3174 art.3174 Esther Phillips art.3174 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3174&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3174&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4132&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Doo-Wop Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:51:34 -0800 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.4132 art.4132 Little Anthony and the Imperials art.4132 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4132&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4132&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1186&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Teen Beat Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:54:28 -0700 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.1186 art.1186 The Jets art.1186 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1186&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1186&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.43247&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss '50s Rock 'n' Roll Fri, 13 Nov 2009 12:39:08 -0800 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.43247 art.43247 Screamin' Jay Hawkins art.43247 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.43247&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.43247&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.44168&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Blues Jazz Sun, 4 Oct 2009 09:42:33 -0700 Top Classic R&B Artists on Rhapsody Online art.44168 art.44168 King Curtis art.44168 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.44168&variant=play&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.44168&variant=data&rws=%2Fsoul-r-b%2Fclassic-r-b%2Fartist-chart.rss Imagine, for instance -- until he was murdered outside his New York apartment in 1971. -
