The Isley Brothers - Live It Up (LP)

Live It Up is one of the most famous albums by The Isley Brothers, released in 1974 and it marks one of the key transitional moments for the group from its classic trio into the fully integrated six-member family band that would define their most celebrated era. Some tracks, such as "Need a Little Taste of Love," show how the younger members' instrumental contributions had begun to reshape the group's sonic identity, blending spirited funk with intricate melodic interplay. The album sits at the convergence of early-70s funk, soul and rock, feeling both polished and explosive, balancing emotional depth with sheer, kinetic groove, rich arrangements, rhythmic guitar lines and crystalline keyboard textures. This vinyl reissue is the first since 1975.
