Do you know who played guitar on this song? I tried to Google it & couldn't find anything. Muddy Waters released this song first & of course, played the guitar. The style of the guitarist, on this recording, sounds familiar to me, but I can't place the artist. Thanks.
This is called blue-eyed soul. These guys were the best. Bobby Hatfield with his beautiful tenor voice & Bill Medley with his deeper voice. They were magic together. Other great songs by them is "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'", "Soul & Inspiration", "Just Once In My Life", "Ebb Tide", "Rock & Roll Heaven" etc.
Hey baby girl that's bill he's got the deep voice!! And that check this out this is the mid-sixties it was Elvis and The righteous Brothers and they gave all the props to black rhythm and blues and spiritual gospel.
Your hearing what they grew up on. Britt your correct. They grew up listening to Little Richard, Ray Charles, BB King. And yes, they were mistaken for being Black because they sang with so much soul in their voices! Their music was labeled, " Blue Eyed Soul and they were proud of that. Love those two! RIP Bobby Hatfield! And keep on singing Bill Medley!!
No, you are confusing them with Buddy Holly being invited to play at the Apollo Theater. They were playing at a club in Santa Ana, Orange County, CA. Black Marines from the El Toro Marine base heard some white guys were singing R & B and decided to check them out. It was the Marines who started calling them righteous brothers during the months they appeared at that club, while they were on stage and off. When they recorded Little Latin Lupe Lu, as a duo, they needed a name to put on the record. They couldn't use The Paramours since it was only the two of them. Bobby suggested they use the name the marines were calling them.
@@1perfectpitch No, it's definitely you. The nightclub was Jon's Black Derby in Bill Medley's hometown of Santa Ana. The rest is as I said in my other comment.
Elvis has great Blues songs too - Mean woman blues, Steamroller Blues, etc. You’d also enjoy Elvis’s gospel side (How great thou art, You gave me a mountain, and with his daughte Where no one stands alone). BB King said Elvis was an excellent blues singer.
Part of what made these two so great was their differences both physically and musically. Bill (tall and dark bass-baritone ) was a blues singer and Bobby (short and blond first tenor) liked doo wop. They both sang Rhythm and blues with all their heart and soul though and their catalogue includes everything from hard rock to ballads. In the mid sixties they were the hottest group out there … still performing in 2003 when Bobby passed. Bill has continued to sing to sell out venues at the age of 82.
The Righteous Brothers are not brothers. They are Bill Medley, the baritone (singing this song) and Bobby Hatfield, the tenor who sang "Unchained Melody". Early in their career they struggled with what to call themselves but somebody from the audience yelled, "that was righteous, brother" so they became the Righteous Brothers. My two favorite songs from them are "Soul And Inspiration" and "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling". You may have heard Bills voice in the theme song to "Dirty Dancing" called "The Time Of My Life" which he sang with Jennifer Warnes.
@@localnetsolutions I knew it was a Marine but did not know where he was stationed at. There are multiple bases in the state of California and a couple near there also. Thanks for the clarification though.
I heard that she is thinking of doing another duet with Bill about a year ago, I haven't heard anything since but I hope it happens. She was someone I knew back in the early 70's.
73 year old wb who was weened on "motown"...just found this channel, lucky me!! darling you react so fine with voice, face, and body...truly heartfelt...new sub here, I'm hooked.... you are the complete package for real.....if I was 50 years younger< I would be chasing after you, you are so cute...........
These two heartthrobs from the sixties were not biological brothers but rather soul brothers. We were so fortunate they came together. Hence the term: blue eyed soul. Wait till you hear Bobby 'Ken Doll' do his solo Summertime. They each have solos's and numerous duo's that hit the charts: You'll never walk alone, Just once in my life; Soul and Inspiration; Justine and You've lost that loving feeling to name a few.
Willie Dixon wrote this tune and everyone has done a cover of it from Muddy Waters to the Rolling Stones to Etta James , just a freaking cool tune but even at my age of 71 and a musician and a Huge Righteous Brothers fan i have never heard their version
Hi Britt, Look at you putting on that "Stank-Face" look so early in the reaction!!! The Righteous Brothers have that affect, they are in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and IMHO they have "G.O.A.T. STATUS!!!"
A really great cover of a Muddy Waters Song. Shout out and Respect to all the AWESOME Blues Musicians who laid the foundation of what would become Rock & Roll.
I remember THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS from my youth, but I had never heard this one before. The group FOGHAT does a nice rock-n-roll version of this song as well! Thanks much! 😊
We saw them at least four times in the seventies in our home town of Chicago! That's what my boyfriend/husband used to sing to me and still does!! Lol!! What a nut!
I never heard this version either. I heard the Etta James version & she sure could belt out those Jazz/Blues songs. I'm so glad that her Son had her sing & record those types of songs. Unfortunately, in the 50s & 60s, some singers were pigeonholed into a certain genre of music & were never really able to show everything they had & could do. Going from "At Last" to "Damn Your Eyes" ("Seven Year Itch" album) was a far stretch that Etta James did flawlessly. RIP- Dear Lady.
New subscriber here. I really like your reactions. I'm a fan of the Righteous Brothers, not real brothers but I never heard this before, I'm loving it!!
2 great legend's and so many great songs a young gentleman taking TH-cam by storm is ren -hi ren this video has had 3 million views in 2 weeks and it is pure genius worth a look love and respect from the UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍
That was the other half of the pair BILL MEDLEY both were some of the greatest soul singers of that time , this is self evident by the fact that 50 years later people are still playing it .The other half of the pair is Bobby Hatfield .the name of the pair came from a gig in a club where they were singing and a customer yelled that's righous brother and so the name stuck also Angelina sang this song in concert age 12 , try it ,you'll like it
Hahahaha seeing young peoples reaction to The Righteous Brothers, from music from when we was kids. Priceless. the tearm was given toi the Blue Eyed Soul. Hahahaha. Love seeing peoples reaction makes it even more enloyable for me. Thanks.
Such a great (and appreciative) reaction to Bill (lower voice) and Bobby (higher voice) - and your Ray Charles reference was spot-on in my opinion!! They brought grit/soul/R&B to their music in so many different ways - Bobby joining Bill in this song is always a show-stopper for me - so "Righteous!!" And I completely agree with ClandOp: you are on the fast trip to 30,000 that I have seen, and deservedly so. Thank you for the very enjoyable reaction!!
I love your commentary and glad you enjoy Bill Medley also inviting in Bobby Hatfield to harmonize with him. Also announcing in the lyrics this man singing to his lady love desires to help her in the home chores...sharing the responsibilities so an outdoor interlude of super closeness will respectfully take place....he really treasures his woman...yes with TRUE LOVING.😂
First time hearing this. Rather loving it. Wondering why I've never heard any Righteous Brothers music other than Unchained Melody. No idea that Bill Medley was a blues man. Gorgeous. Adding this to the playlist.
For future reference "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" by the Righteous Brothers was the most listened-to recording of the 20th century, according to BMI.
According to Bill Medley, [the tall one,] they adopted the name The Righteous Brothers for the duo because black Marines from the El Toro Marine base started calling them "righteous brothers". At the end of a performance, a black U.S. Marine in the audience would shout, "That was righteous, brothers!", and would greet them with "Hey righteous brothers, how you doin'?" on meeting them.
When that song came out the parents were outraged. It was too sexy for young people to be listening to. Of course, that only made us want to listen to it more. That was my generation and the music we listened to then.
You need to do a review of “You lost that loving feeling “ next. These blue-eyed soul singers were heartthrobs in their day. The 50s and early 60s had a lot of Ken dolls. The Time/Life magazine people coined the term “Teen Idol” when they did a feature article on Ricky Nelson. I bet you’ll swoon wh n you see him perform “There will never be anyone else but you”. “Garden Party” was performed later and is a response to being booed off stage. He died in a plane crash shortly after that song went big.
Righteous Brothers (not biological) Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley. You should to react to "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling" their biggest hit. By the way the Righteous Brothers appeared at my Los Angeles area High School in the 1960s ~ (So did The Drifters, and even Tina Turner)
Britt, you've got to dig up their earliest rockin' hits on the Moonglow label -- Koko Joe, My Babe, Little Latin Lupe Lu, Try To Find Another Man, B-Flat Blues. Great stuff that is hardly played at all these days. The reaction videos I've seen so far on You Tube on the Righteous Brothers always seem to be from their career on the Philles label, when they were given a lot of old, slow standards to re-do. The Philles songs were bigger hits for them than the Moonglow days, but the music is very different. Play those early rockers -- that's where they got the name "Righteous"!
They got their name because they played a lot of clubs down by Camp Pendleton in California. The soldiers would yell out “that’s righteous brother”. It is the music of my teens. All of our music was not the bubble gum stuff people think of. Look up the top selling songs of 1965.
No, they were not biological brothers. They got their name when singing in front of a crowd, and someone jumped up and yelled RIGHTEOUS BROTHER!!! Bobby Hatfield was a tenor, and Bill Medley is a baritone. Obviously, it is Bill singing in this song. It was Bobby singing "Unchained Melody", which was the first song by them you reacted to.
IF you love the Righteous Brothers' 'Blue-Eyed Soul', you should try another 60's artist, Timi Yuro. She once opened for Frank Sinatra and Elvis came to see her when she played Vegas. Try "Hurt", "What's A Matter, Baby", ""Make the World Go Away", or her cover of Patsy Cline's "She's Got You".
Now we know who taught Tom Jones how to sing! 🌹😀😇 You got me thinking, since you seem to like gutsy blues, you might like The Blues Brothers, "She Caught the Katy". Amazing how two guys as funny as Dan Ackroyd and John Belushi turned a skit from Saturday Night Live into a motion picture, album and recording success!✌️🌹🕊️
Oh you want some blues give Marc Broussard a listen....that's Southern Bayou Blues . Home is debut and its fantastic but for some bluesy soul try his cover of Cry to Me (Solomon Burke).
Oh yeah, you need to watch the video for You've lost that loving feeling. You'll see them together. People thought they were black before they saw them. That's blue eye soul. Have a great day!
Their music created the term Blue Eyed Soul. Also, because I know you'll react to You've Lost That Loving Feeling, notice at the start of the song they're sitting while hitting the notes and harmonizing. To do it while sitting takes a different kind of talent.
Hey Britt, seeing R&B gets you in the feels, you should check out Beth Hart + Joe Bonamassa - I'd Rather Go Blind. I do believe it will make your playlist. Both these artists have amazing solo careers, but together they are phenomenal.
You were spot on with Ray Charles comment. Bill Medley does a set of Ray Charles music during his show. More specific Ray Charles soulful version of Hank Williams country classics.
Music from the best generation ever!!
A prime example of "Blue-Eyed Soul"
When the RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS were in concert in your city - 9 months later there was a spike in births...
I love how you reacted to the song. I LOVE the Blues. So glad you do, too. LOL These guys were so great together. One of the best duos ever.
Do you know who played guitar on this song? I tried to Google it & couldn't find anything. Muddy Waters released this song first & of course, played the guitar. The style of the guitarist, on this recording, sounds familiar to me, but I can't place the artist. Thanks.
This song wasn't played on the radio because the censors thought it was too raunchy.
This is called blue-eyed soul. These guys were the best. Bobby Hatfield with his beautiful tenor voice & Bill Medley with his deeper voice. They were magic together. Other great songs by them is "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'", "Soul & Inspiration", "Just Once In My Life", "Ebb Tide", "Rock & Roll Heaven" etc.
Np, _this_ is blues - in its purety
they did different stuff
Missed Bobby Caldwell
Hey baby girl that's bill he's got the deep voice!! And that check this out this is the mid-sixties it was Elvis and The righteous Brothers and they gave all the props to black rhythm and blues and spiritual gospel.

You are quite simply the most authentic reactor to music that I have ever seen.
Each "Brother" had top of the mountain vocal talent. To experience the two of them performing together must have been one of life's best times.
They got booked sight unseen into a black club and when they finished their set someone shouted "That's Righteous Brothers" and the name stuck.
No, you are confusing them with Buddy Holly being invited to play at the Apollo Theater. They were playing at a club in Santa Ana, Orange County, CA. Black Marines from the El Toro Marine base heard some white guys were singing R & B and decided to check them out.

@@Aurora-tp3dy No, I am not confused but you certainly are.
@@1perfectpitch No, it's definitely you. The nightclub was Jon's Black Derby in Bill Medley's hometown of Santa Ana. The rest is as I said in my other comment.
They got their name because they played in a black nightclub and the other performer's said you brothers are righteous. True story.

Yep, it's funk, nasty, down & dirty. Love it it.
A really great cover of a Muddy Waters Song. Shout out and Respect to all the AWESOME Blues Musicians who laid the foundation of what would become Rock & Roll.

That was my favorite Cosby episode. Rudy was singing a song from Ray Charles. She was sooo cute and " Cliff Huxtuble" finished it off. Classic!!❤❤
First time hearing this. Rather loving it. Wondering why I've never heard any Righteous Brothers music other than Unchained Melody. No idea that Bill Medley was a blues man. Gorgeous. Adding this to the playlist.
Yes! It does feel like and even the voice is like Ray Charles!

Summertime (live) is absolutely insane, bobby vocals are just out of this world !
That is Bill Medley singing. Bobby Hatfield sang Unchained Melody on your other video. Try You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’! 😊
Bill Medley recorded the song "I've had the time of my life" for the Dirty Dancing movie.
This time it's Bill Medley. Who later had a solo career. Bobby Hatfield died quite young, in the 90's I believe.
Simply Gorgeous, thank you.
Now listen to "Summer Time " with Bobby sings it alone. It's great and SO Different from " Unchained melody ".
Never knew they did this Muddy Waters cover.
Great reaction! If you want to get to some of their more 'duet' type songs, try Soul and Inspiration or Just Once In My Life!
gotta watch them perform You Lost that Lovin Feeling.
Never this song n, just awesome! Love your reactions❤❤❤
Bill medley sang 'The time of your life' in the movie dirty dancing. You may want to check that one out.
Bobby Hatfield is considered a counter tenor than just a tenor.
When that song came out the parents were outraged. It was too sexy for young people to be listening to. Of course, that only made us want to listen to it more. That was my generation and the music we listened to then.
And while they 'took their inspiration' from black blues music, they made it 'acceptable' to a wide-stream, white audience.
The tall one with the dark hair is Bill Medley. The blonde is Bobby Hatfield
"Ebb Tide" will have you climbing the walls towards the end!
Blue-eyed soul at it's finest during 60s. Please react Bobby Hatfield on his rendition of "Summertime" during 1965
When, Motown’s first A&R man William Mickey Stevenson says that these guys had soul! What more need be said!
You need to check out Ebb Tide sung by Bobby Hatfield(the shorter blonde 👱♂️ haired one)and the ending......
Never heard this one sung by them before. That might just qualify for a position on my i-pod. Other music storage and playback gizmos are available.
Best reaction ever! Glad you enjoyed your introduction to the dark haired 'brother'
Willie Dixon wrote this song in 1954, and a host of soul/blues singers have covered it.
Damn good reaction and analysis of this song Britt! Great music.
Teskey Brothers "Rain" is amazing soulful
Love your reaction to this song Britt.

Rock and Roll Heaven is great!! Another great artist is Steve Winwood “Higher Love” and/or “Roll With It”. Sooooo soulful!!! That blue-eyed soul!
Yes, deep rabbit whole, enjoy!
Wait till you hear " you've lost that loving feeling " !!! . Your reactions are great by the way.
Unchained melody
Britt, you've got to dig up their earliest rockin' hits on the Moonglow label -- Koko Joe, My Babe, Little Latin Lupe Lu, Try To Find Another Man, B-Flat Blues. Great stuff that is hardly played at all these days. The reaction videos I've seen so far on You Tube on the Righteous Brothers always seem to be from their career on the Philles label, when they were given a lot of old, slow standards to re-do. The Philles songs were bigger hits for them than the Moonglow days, but the music is very different. Play those early rockers -- that's where they got the name "Righteous"!
Britt, this was the original PDC duo for my parent's generation...
The raspy singer is Bill Medley, the blonde is Bobby Hatfield
They got their name because they played a lot of clubs down by Camp Pendleton in California. The soldiers would yell out “that’s righteous brother”. It is the music of my teens. All of our music was not the bubble gum stuff people think of. Look up the top selling songs of 1965.
The beginning rasp is Bill Medley. You previously listened to Bobby Hatfield singing Unchained Medley. Listen to them sing "Rock and Roll Heaven".
No, they were not biological brothers. They got their name when singing in front of a crowd, and someone jumped up and yelled RIGHTEOUS BROTHER!!!
Bobby Hatfield was a tenor, and Bill Medley is a baritone. Obviously, it is Bill singing in this song. It was Bobby singing "Unchained Melody", which was the first song by them you reacted to.
Although they did an album called "The Sons of Mrs. Righteous."
The story of their name was one night they were singing in a little club and when they finished someone said that was 'Righteous Bother" !
What you are trying to explain about the feeling in the earphones is sometimes referred to as an eargasm.
Willie Dixon wrote this song in 1954, Muddy Waters was the first to record it, Foghat realized a version in 1972
The song unchained melody was played in the movie Ghost the pottery scene.
They are great! You should try You've lost that lovin feeling. Slow tempo and features both of them.
First, you heard Bobby (Unchained Melody) and now you've heard Bill. Hear them together in "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling." So Good!
You're adorable.. Bill Medley laid it out there & Bobby Hatfield cranked it up too.
Blue Eyed Soul. Greatest Duo ever.
IF you love the Righteous Brothers' 'Blue-Eyed Soul', you should try another 60's artist, Timi Yuro. She once opened for Frank Sinatra and Elvis came to see her when she played Vegas. Try "Hurt", "What's A Matter, Baby", ""Make the World Go Away", or her cover of Patsy Cline's "She's Got You".
this song is fire :)
Now we know who taught Tom Jones how to sing! 🌹😀😇
You got me thinking, since you seem to like gutsy blues, you might like The Blues Brothers, "She Caught the Katy". Amazing how two guys as funny as Dan Ackroyd and John Belushi turned a skit from Saturday Night Live into a motion picture, album and recording success!✌️🌹🕊️
Oh you want some blues give Marc Broussard a listen....that's Southern Bayou Blues . Home is debut and its fantastic but for some bluesy soul try his cover of Cry to Me (Solomon Burke).
Oh yeah, you need to watch the video for You've lost that loving feeling. You'll see them together. People thought they were black before they saw them. That's blue eye soul. Have a great day!

Their music created the term Blue Eyed Soul. Also, because I know you'll react to You've Lost That Loving Feeling, notice at the start of the song they're sitting while hitting the notes and harmonizing. To do it while sitting takes a different kind of talent.
Try jimmy barnes and john farnham "when something is wrong with my baby" live performance in particular the "hey hey it's Saturday" version.
Hey Britt, seeing R&B gets you in the feels, you should check out Beth Hart + Joe Bonamassa - I'd Rather Go Blind. I do believe it will make your playlist. Both these artists have amazing solo careers, but together they are phenomenal.
I advise you to make a reaction to the Russian artist Shaman. You will be pleasantly surprised! SHAMAN - ВСТАНЕМ
Beautiful reaction
Bill is lead vocal on this song, Bobby you can hear in the background vocals. You should hear them sing " What I say" .
You were spot on with Ray Charles comment. Bill Medley does a set of Ray Charles music during his show. More specific Ray Charles soulful version of Hank Williams country classics.
