Bill Medley is a seminal figure in the history of American music. He is best known as half of the unmistakable duo, The Righteous Brothers. Their raw emotional rhythm and blues sound essentially created the genre “blue-eyed soul.” In the mid-1960’s, the Righteous Brothers became a fixture on Top Forty radio with hits like “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin,” “Just Once in My Life,” “Unchained Melody,” and “You’re My Soul and Inspiration,” creating an ultra-dramatic take on Sixties pop romance. Their partnership lasted four decades, though Medley explored his solo options apart from the duo on occasion. He went on his own in the late-60’s for six years. Medley shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon, keeping to a rigorous tour schedule so he may share is love of music night after night with all of his loyal fans. |
