Get Into Something is a 1970 album released by The Isley Brothers on their T-Neck imprint.[2] The album includes six songs that appeared in the top 30 of the Billboard R&B chart between late 1969 and early 1971 (most of which dented the lower reaches of the Pop chart as well): the title track, "Bless Your Heart", the horn and drum-driven "Keep On Doin'", which has won multiple awards including the Mid-Atlantic Soul Music award. (which inspired the instrumental cover by The JBs later that year under the title "The Grunt"), "Freedom", "Girls Will Be Girls", and "If He Can You Can".[3]
