Soul on the Rocks is the fifth studio

The Four Tops, whose styles were more polished than the Isleys, got more promotion. One of the album's tracks, "Behind a Painted Smile" found chart success and made them popular in the United Kingdom, as the Isleys found out on a tour of the country during this period. Motivated, they eventually left Motown and re-formed their T-Neck
record label.
