I saw your previous reaction to The Righteous Brothers. I'm white and I don't think your comments were racist. They were honest. I grew up during the Motown period and black artists had a distinctive sound that we called Soul. The Righteous Brothers actually got their name from fellow performers who were black who told them "You're righteous, brothers!" A real compliment back then. I think people can be too touchy about this. It's important to be careful not to offend, but I think we need to be a little more tolerant of each other's differences, including figures of speech and expression. Especially when they are clearly innocent and not meant to be offensive.

I have never heard that! Medley is playing the piano on it. He later said, "If I had known the song was going to be such a hit, I would have brought in a better piano player." Hatfield, after is last studio take, said, "I can do it better." Medley told him, "No, you can't." He must have been thinking about putting these final high notes onto the record (which they are not--that ending is a surprise here that radio listeners had not heard--WOW).

Then when their popularity soared, they were seen on television and concerts and record album sleeves. When we first heard them, all of us, of every color or nationality or cultural background assumed they were black gentlemen. Theis was not racist. We simply had never heard white gentlemen produce that beautiful sound. Then when we finally saw them, everyone was astounded. Please keep doing your excellent reactions and ignore those who want to see it racist in either direction. Those who assume that, should actually study the rich history of music. Well done.

Some say it is the best live performance of a pop song of all time. Anyone who hears a group from the 60s named the Righteous Brothers singing soul and doesn't expect them to be black, well they're just not paying attention. Great reaction; it's how everyone feels when they first hear the song.

The people of the mid to late fifties an early sixties when Motown was just picking up steam and the best radio stations were out of Chicago and they played music by people of color. So you will hear elements of Soul in a lot of White music from that period. Even Elvis Presley’s early music had elements of some Black artists like James Brown. To ignore that is to miss a huge element of the music of that period. So if you are not watching the Righteous Brothers they sound like Black artists. It was a big deal to parents in the south because the young people were gravitating toward Black music. It should never be racist to notice the soul influence of that time. It was new to a lot of people and they were experimenting with the sound. The very early rock and roll music also had elements from Black artists.

They had a coin toss, bobby won that toss. Bobby was a tenor/counter tenor. This was a live performance Andy Williams show 1965. No autotune, no gimmicks, one take. What a beautiful blessed man, with such a voice. We are going back 50 + years on this live performance. Bobby made this song his own. I don't believe anyone could match his range/octave (s). Happy that u enjoyed this presentation.

They played his version in the movie Ghost in the 80s. This was covered by several people but no one has matched him. His range was unbelievable and he did it so effortlessly and without straining. This was a B side on a 45 record and the other one, Bill Medley, let him do it solo. They were both great. There is an intro to this performance on the Andy Williams show that talks about it.

They would take turns doing solos every once in awhile. They flipped a coin on which one of them would get to sing this and Bobby won. Bill played the piano for it. Bill joked and said if he knew this was going to become so popular he would have hired a better piano player to do it justice.

“The Righteous Brothers” are considered by most to be the Greatest Male Vocal Duet Of All Time. I agree. Between Bill Medley’s Lows and Bobby Hatfield’s Highs they can hit every note on an 88 key piano. No other male singers can do that. Legendary. "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" was the most played song on the radio in the 20th Century. "Unchained Melody" - Bobby Hatfield Live 1965. Considered by most as The Greatest Live Male Vocal Performance In History... I agree. Bobby's use of "Runs" in his singing style has inspired countless others in their own music. Nobody has ever done it better. 5 notes to say the word "I".....Early in their career at a small venue after the show a black man said to them.... You two brothers are righteous.... the source of their name. In 1983, in Newport Beach O.C. Calif. Bill and Bobby at the Jolly Roger Restaurant . I was 13 feet away for... "Unchained Melody"- "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" - "Soul And Inspiration".... They were perfect, awesome, amazing, incredible......

Unchained Melody" is a 1955 song with music by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret. North wrote the music as a theme for the prison film Unchained (1955),[1] hence the song title. Todd Duncan sang the vocals for the film soundtrack.[2] It has since become a standard and one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, most notably by the Righteous Brothers in 1965.[3] According to the song's publishing administrator, over 1,500 recordings of "Unchained Melody" have been made by more than 670 artists, in multiple languages.[4]

Bobby Hatfield did this as a solo and it reached all kinds of hearts, of all cultures. You keep your comments and views out there. We need more of that. As I understand it, the duo got their name from a studio rehearsal where other musicians were playing, a few were black and once they heard the duo sing, one of them said "That was righteous, brother!" They took the name and the rest is history.

I think it's absolutely fantastic that you admitted your surprise and followed through by liking them & playing more. The Righteous Brothers, as I'm sure other people have told you, began the "Blue Eyed Soul" genre. They helped to bring Black music to middle class white suburban kids. Now you are bringing these white soul singers to a wider audience, both Black & white. I appreciate you! Renee
