 Though musically different from "It's Your Thing", the lyrics to "Keep On Doin'" didn't differ from the song as did several songs they would record for the albums, "" and "Get Into Something".This song was recorded in the summer of 1969 with the group's session musicians that they had hired to play on the recordings.Ernie Isley, who had played drums for the band during live gigs starting at age fourteen and had played bass on "It's Your Thing", continued to provide bass guitar work on this song.
