Live It Up is a 1974 funk album released by The Isley Brothers on their T-Neck imprint via distribution with Epic Records. After the runaway success of their first sextet project, 3 + 3, the five Isley brothers and in-law relative Chris Jasper returned to the studio to record their follow-up. This album yielded the top ten R&B hits such as the title track and "Midnight Sky" and featured radio-only hits, the cover of Todd Rundgren's "Hello It's Me" and their own, "Brown-Eyed Girl" (not the Van Morrison song of the same name).
