This box features newly remastered versions of The Isley Brothers' 21 albums released for both labels, nearly all of which are expanded with rare mixes and tracks making their CD and digital debuts. In total this new collection includes 84 rare and previously unreleased bonus tracks.
One of the most significant inclusions is the 'lost' live-in-the-studio album Wild In Woodstock: The Isley Brothers Live At Bearsville Sound Studio 1980. This is newly restored and for the first time it is being released in its entirety.
All the CDs come in card sleeves accompanied by a booklet with everything residing in what looks like a clamshell box. This Isley Brothers anthology was compiled and produced by Leo Sacks, with the help of Jeffrey James and Jeremy Holiday. The music has been newly remastered from the original analog tapes by Mark Wilder at Battery Studios.
