Givin' It Back is a 1971 album released by The Isley Brothers on their T-Neck imprint. After years of having white rock acts covering their most famed material, particularly, "Shout!" and "Twist & Shout", the Isleys decided to do the same to music made famous by white artists such as Stephen Stills, Eric Burdon and Neil Young. Among the songs they covered was "Spill the Wine", "Love the One You're With", the social commentary medley of "Ohio" and "Machine Gun" (from the Isleys' former guitarist, Jimi Hendrix), "Fire and Rain" by James Taylor and the Bob Dylan gem, "Lay Lady Lay". The Isleys' perseverance paid off when their covers of "Love the One You're With", "Lay Lady Lay" and "Spill the Wine" became charted hits. Bill Withers plays guitar on the Isleys' cover of his single, "Cold Bologna".
