"If You Don't Know Me by Now" is a song written by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, and recorded by the Philly soul musical group Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes. It became their first hit after being released as a single in September 1972, topping the US R&B chart and peaking at number 3 on the US Billboard Hot 100. "If You Don't Know Me by Now" has since been covered by a number of other artists, most notably the English pop/soul band Simply Red, who took their version to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1989.

Of COURSE I know this tune even though it was WAY before my time. LOL. I love that chord at 1:01 and you harmonizing with yourself is very cool. Really nice job, Mitch.

Please give me a heads up when you post a song.

Also..... It would be fun to do a collaboration sometime. We probably know a lot of the same songs . Think about it .
