Live It Up! is Holly Woods's final album. It was recorded in 1986 after Toronto's label, Solid Gold Records, went into receivership forcing the band to split up.

Two of the members, Holly Woods and Scott Kreyer, regrouped and continued on to a studio in Atlanta to record new tracks with producer Sonny Limbo. The album was shopped around but labels shied away, fearing repercussions from Solid Gold. With the unexpected death of Sonny a few years later, any hope of finding a home for the recordings died with him. The tapes were shelved for over twenty years.

In 2007, these "lost masters" were found and released, with the tracks remixed by Cyclone Records' founder Brad Trew.

Vex Magazine states: "Forget all about looking for that retro-80s music you love so much. This album IS 80s music! Originally recorded in 1986 and all but lost until now, the former member of the iconic rock band, Toronto, has released a collection of songs that will have you kicking back with a beer, while fondly reminiscing about the days of mullets, Mustang 5.0s and ‘Res-parties’. Party on!"[1]CD Reviews By You says "Live It Up!" is "all classic eighties rock - cowbell, keyboards and all; sure to satisfy the fans of the old band. So get out the hairspray and leg warmers and enjoy this great trip down memory lane." [2]

Keith Fraser wrote in CDReviewsByYou.com: ""Holly has a level of styling that only pure talent and years of professionalism can bring. The entire CD fits together like jigsaw pieces with both the production and lyrics strongly pounding out song after song. Live It Up shows Holly certainly has the vocal chops and charm to stand on her own." [3]

Rock Aces says Live It Up! "is a pure connection with the past. A perfect example to listen and understand the music, the song writing and the feeling of 80's rock! Holly's songwriting and the great range of her voice, which can really touch your heart, brought us back from the past a very good rock-soul album with a great production." [4]Toronto Exclusive Magazine says "Holly Woods is back, quite possibly better than ever with a powerhouse performance on eight rock and blues tracks that comprise "Live it Up!" For those old enough to remember the distinctive sound of ' Toronto', you will be transported back in time. It's pure 80's power rock with a dynamic voice that commands attention. Track #4 is titled "Win" – very fitting, as this CD is a definite "Win" for Holly."[5]
