<p>The Isley Brothers are an American R&B/soul group from Cincinnati, Ohio. Formed in the early 1950's, the original group consisted of O’Kelly Isley, Rudolph Isley, Ronald Isley and Vernon Isley (who tragically died in a 1956 automobile accident). They gained popularity with their early hit “Shout!” in 1959. In 1963, they established their own label T-Neck and even had the talented Jimi Hendrix on lead guitar for a while. Signing on to Motown in 1965, they recorded the classic “This Old Heart Of Mine." Leaving Motown in 1968, they relaunched T-Neck and released another hit "It's Your Thing" in 1969. Adding Ernie and Marvin Isley as well as Chris Jasper to their lineup in 1973, they continued to release hits like “Between the Sheets," “Choosey Lover,” or “For the Love Of You” until 1983.</p>
<p>In recognition of their immense contribution to music, The Isley Brothers were rightfully inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame as performers in 1992.</p>

Led by the legendary Ronald Isley on lead vocals and the album's main producer/arranger Carlos Santana on lead guitar, rhythm guitar, percussion and background vocals, Power of Peace covers songs first made familiar by the Chambers Brothers ("Are You Ready" "Love, Peace, Happiness"), Swamp Dogg ("Total Destruction to Your Mind"), Stevie Wonder ("Higher Ground"), Billie Holiday ("God Bless the Child"), Eddie Kendricks ("Body Talk"), Curtis Mayfield ("Gypsy Woman"), Muddy Waters/Willie Dixon ("I Just Want to Make Love to You"), Dionne Warwick/Jackie DeShannon ("What the World Needs Now is Love Sweet Love"), Marvin Gaye ("Mercy Mercy Me - The Ecology"), Leon Thomas ("Let the Rain Fall on Me") and Sy Miller and Jill Jackson ("Let There Be Peace on Earth"). Power of Peace also premieres a new song, "I Remember," written and sung by Cindy Blackman Santana.
