stamp date on md5sum

I know this is a stupid question but ....im stuck ...
I have 2 files were i have to perform a md5sum check , the results (hash string) output to a file were must be stamped with the date and time the validation was performed .

I got the first part :
md5sum file a file b > results.txt
But how do you stamp those files with the time and date ??

Any help will be appreciated

Something like this, perhaps?

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. md5sum filea fileb > results_`date "+%Y-%m-%d"`.txt
