They weren't really brothers, but Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield were most definitely righteous, defining and perhaps even inspiring the term "blue-eyed Soul" in the mid-'60s. Bobby Hatfield was born on August 10th, 1940 in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, and Bill Medley was born on September 19th, the same year in Santa Ana, California. When Medley and Hatfield combined forces in 1962, they emerged from regional groups The Paramours and The Variations. In fact, they kept The Paramours billing for their first single. Thinking of a new name, the pair remembered the night they sang in front of a group of U.S. Marines. After their set, one of the Marines shouted out, "That's righteous brothers!" and the name stuck.

Whenever I find somebody that has never heard of the righteous brothers, I always recommend their video for "You've Lost That Loving Feeling"... The Black and White version, not the later version in color... I firmly believe that that is the perfect intro to this iconic duo... They start out in shadow, and you only see their silhouettes... Then Bill (The tall one) starts singing in his rich, deep baritone voice... Then they bring the lights up and shows them... I have seen several first time reactors lose their minds when they see they are white... Then they really lose their minds in the last verse once Bobby stops singing back up and steps up to show off his own vocals... Even the ones who noticed Bobby can sing too are totally blown away... Priceless to see... It is the ultimate introduction song, better then ANY other song they have for this purpose... Just for those revelations in that performance... Sets them up perfectly for the greatness that lies ahead in this rabbit hole... An entire arsenal of killer songs/performances... Also, the song you heard before was "Unchained Melody"... Most people who say they don't know it recognize it once they hear it... They just didn't know the name of the song... Bill didn't think it would be a hit, so he didn't "Waste his time" with it... Bobby made it the best known, most successful cover of that song... Literally thousands of artists have recorded it. The original version was from the 1955 movie "Unchained"...

Bill Medley did a duet with Jennifer Warnes for the soundtrack for the hit film “Dirty Dancing”, which was titled “I’ve Had The Time Of My Life”. It’s great. Bill is the only one still with us. Bobby Hatfield died in 2003 at the age of 63. He had a fatal heart attack, brought on by years of cocaine abuse. My favorite song of theirs is actually “Rock N’Rock Heaven”. Bill Medley changes the lyrics slightly in live shows-he now says BOBBY has a hell of a band! Bill’s still touring at 83!

What nonsense. I find it interesting that those close to him family and actual friends never saw him using or under the influence, but Internet gossips have their crazy imaginations. His cardiovascular issues were those of countless older men. The autopsy found he was a serious need of bypass surgery. The need for that surgery is caused by genetics and diet, not cocaine or anything else. As fate would have it, he had a doctor's appointment for after that tour. If it was before the tour, possibly, he would be hanging out with his grandchildren now instead of in his grave 20 years. That cocaine found in the autopsy (if it was actually there) was described by the medical examiner as a trace amount. But, hey, you go ahead and malign a good man. He was a fantastic singer, but I like that he was a devoted, loving husband and a loving, caring father even more.

OH Britt, you have yet to hear their number one hit You've Lost That Loving Feeling which became the most played radio song in music history. It is the 1965 black and white version that is iconic. Don't make yourself suffer any longer and do a reaction to it right away. Also, you need hear their version of I Just Want To Make Love To You, probably the best panty dropping song of all time. My wife and I saw them twice in concert in the sixties in Anaheim, and Bill Medley solo at his own club in Huntington Beach in the eighties and they were all exceptional performances. These guys were the best of the best in their day.

They look so suave and handsome. Early days they played the late shows in Vegas. Frank Sinatra took a liking to them and used to bring his friends to watch the brothers after he was done performing for the night. He took them under his wing and referred to them as " the boys". The Righteous Brothers said that is how they learned to be entertainers and not just singers. They got to know the Rat Pack. A some juicy tales in Bill Medley's book about their early times in Vegas.

The tall one is Bill Medley and he’s a bass-baritone, the blond is Bobby Hatfield and he’s. A tenor-countertenor. They were dubbed “Blue-Eyed Soul.” No auto tune, none of the tricks used today, just pure talent. You’re right when you say they sound like Smokey Robinson, the Platters, the Commodores-all those smooth-singing , do-wop groups. I have had a thing for Bill and his deep, sexy voice for over sixty years.

I saw Bill in concert last month, and even got to speak to him afterward. Not only has he still got “it” but he’s very nice and genuine. Total swoon!

Absolutely love your reaction to this classic by one of the best, if not the best, duos from the 60s; my teenage years. Yep, they got soul in their voices. They were close friends with one of my favorites from back then, James Brown.

Remember in the 60s a large number of songs told a story of love in a way everyone could understand and relate to.

“ You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling’” was the #1 song played on the radio and tv for the 20th century-BMI

My mom listened to this growing up therefore i listened to it as I grew up. There is nothing like it. Anytime I’m in a funk, put some oldies on and your soul responds.

Perfect reaction. If you have not done "you've lost that loving feeling" you should. Also the supremes (after diana ross) "up the ladder to the roof".
