Summer Breeze

Recorded at Record Plant in Los Angeles for the 3 + 3 sessions, with Malcolm Cecil and Robert Margouleff engineering. The original album credited Ronald Isley, O’Kelly Isley, and Rudolph Isley as producers. The track closed the Isley Brothers’ 1973 3 + 3 album as a cover of Seals and Crofts’ song, highlighting the group’s move into a fuller band sound. It became one of the album’s best-known songs and reached the charts in both the United States and the United Kingdom. The song remains a signature Isley Brothers cover and a durable part of the group’s catalog, appearing on later hits collections and continuing to be referenced by listeners and compilers. Its chart life and repeated reissue have kept it in circulation well beyond the original release period.
