Jay Mumford x Soul Supreme: “The Heat Is On” (The Isley Brothers) Cover

The Isley Brothers’ “The Heat Is On” with the one and only Soul Supreme. I first heard this cut when I was four years old; my mom bought the cassette tape from Bluebird taxi stand in the New Rochelle Mall. Bluebird had a small selection of tapes on the back wall to squeeze extra bread from you while you waited for a cab 😂. The album itself was already six years old by then but it was special for me from the first listen. Salute the great, generation-spanning Isleys (and Chris Jasper) and Grap Luva for the Mt. Vernon music alum t-shirt since we’re talking about New Ro and it’s long defunct and demolished dead mall I grew up in.
