Yes, even if the most recent (and probably famous) version of this song is by Mick Hucknall & Simply Red, this one was written in 1972 by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff:

What a brilliant cover - both musically and vocally. Nice to hear something abit more mellow too.  Another memory from my teenage years!

Never heard the Simply Red version...  ::) but I do remember the original by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes (I'm an old fart)...

Very nice interpretation, fellas - that's some fine playing, Alfredo and Jim, you can sing anything and add something new and interesting.
