HAROLD
MELVIN &
THE BLUE NOTES
While many music fans may be unfamiliar with the group Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes, they would have heard at least 1 of the songs they originally recorded. These soul classics include: "Don't Leave Me This Way", "If You Don't Know Me By Now", "Wake Up Everybody" and "The Love I Lost".
Melvin formed the 1st line-up of The Blue Notes in 1954. In this early incarnation, he took on lead vocal duties. Teddy Pendergrass was added as lead singer in the early 1970s. The group signed to Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff's Philadelphia International label in 1972. That year, the group achieved its 1st R&B Chart #1 with "If You Don't Know Me By Now", which later was a pop #1 hit in 1989 for Simply Red. In 1973, the group topped the Soul Chart with "The Love I Lost". The group enjoyed 2 more chart toppers in 1975: "Hope That We Can Be Together Soon" (with Sharon Paige) and "Wake Up Everybody".
Pendergrass quit in 1976. The group persevered for decades in various combinations. Melvin had a stroke from which he did not recover. He died in 1997.
