Cool: The Isley Brothers
Top! They sound poppy but I've just loved them and loved them over the years for no apparent reason 'cept they're uplifting. A good enough reason to be sure.

Hendrix reminds me of Bird: better when he slowed down a bit.

Fabulous. Starting with sweet soul and wild RnB and later burning psychedelic soul courtesy of the god-like Ernest Isley on guitar...

Re: Cool: The Isley Brothers
I was in a shop with my wife the other week, looking for a suite. Not a favourite occupation of mine, that kind of shopping. 'Summer Breeze' came on the radio and everything seemed a whole lot better.
