The Isley Brothers album Givin' it Back is a great listen. It was released in 1971 and all seven tracks are cover versions, theres a reason why they did a covers album the clue is in the album title. Apparently they were more than a little bit pissed of with Hendrix at the time, Im sure you all know Hendrix had been the lead guitarist in The Isley Brothers earlier in his career. He seemed to forget all about his influences and the people that had helped him on his way before his success happened, or at least thats how many black American artists saw it at the time. Anyway.......... if you havent heard it before give it a listen, its a great album.
