I Miss You (later reissued as Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes) is the debut album by Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, released on Philadelphia International in August 25, 1972. Produced by Kenneth Gamble & Leon Huff, the album was recorded at Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia.

Review by Andrew Hamilton

... "Be For Real" is one of the finest recorded pieces in R&B history; it's not a song, it's a pleader where a guy admonishes his woman for looking down on people. They dusted off "Let Me Into Your World" for the Blue Notes; this one was not written for the Dells, as Gamble & Huff had recorded it a few years earlier with the O'Jays for Neptune Records. A hard-hitting package that established Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes as a force to be reckoned with.

A song which was initially intended to be a lavish ballad, just like their single which showed up for my last birthday, except this latest number ended up instead as an uptempo funk number; predicting the things to come with Disco...
