    Everton is correct.

    It's Paul Stewart and you can also add North East and Old Firm to that list.

    Bros and The Isleys contained 2 brothers, The Walkers had none - Scott Engel I believe is the real name of one of them - Isley, Jasper, Isley later reformed and made a song called Caravan of Love - now how on earth would I know that Mr Henry...

    You'd know that cos it was covered by one of the Beatiful South when he was in the Housemartins.

    I'm sure that one of the Isley's was cousin.

    Yes he was - and I've never heard of a band called the Beatiful South! However, the mighty Paul Heaton, accompanied by Dave Hemingway, went on to form a quite handy band called The Beautiful South with Dave Rotheray, former guitarist with The Velvetones (from whence Hemingway emerged, replacing Hugh Whitaker on drums, who had left to rejoin The Gargoyles with Ted Key, The Housie's original bass player, in turn replaced by someone called Norman Cook).
