Give It Away

From HitStory, the pop encyclopedia of School of Rock · Work

Give It Away is the debut album by the American soul group The Chi-Lites. It was released in 1969 on the label Brunswick and was produced by Carl Davis and lead singer Eugene Record. It contains seven original songs and four covers: three Motown songs and The Twelfth of Never.

The album was well received and sold reasonably, especially in the R&B market, where it reached number 16. Five singles were released from it, four of which reached the R&B top 50 and two the Billboard Hot 100. The title song did best, with a tenth place on the R&B chart: the group's first top hit. In 2004 British television viewers heard the song What Do I Wish For in an advertisement for the fast-food chain KFC.
