Between the Sheets is a 1983 album released by The Isley Brothers on their T-Neck imprint. Yielding the top ten singles, "Between the Sheets" and "Choosey Lover" including the radio hits "Let's Make Love Tonight" and "Ballad for the Fallen Soldier", the album gave the Isleys another platinum record. It was a series of lasts for the group: it was the last album to be released under the T-Neck name, the last album the group recorded for Epic, and the last time the "3 + 3" lineup recorded together. By the end of the year, younger brothers Ernie, Marvin and Chris Jasper left the group to form Isley-Jasper-Isley while Ronald, O'Kelly and Rudolph continued on as a trio. "Between the Sheets" has become a heavily sampled R&B classic as is "Choosey Lover", which was re-recorded by Aaliyah for her 1996 album, "One In a Million" & by Cleveland rap group Bone Thugs-n-Harmony for "Buddah Lovaz"
