You are correct in that it is talent, but we had many talented performers in the 50s and 60s. Responding to each part of your message,,, auto tune makes a mockery of sound now, anyone can make a record that will be manipulated until it passes for ok quality. Next, sub-par sound systems,,, those were the best sound systems available at that time, analog, not digital. Lastly, singers then had to have real, well polished singing talents and vocal control. Today, most of those old style needs are not even considered because the industry would then offer only a few singers and groups that can actually sing well.

@janettewebster2151: I read somewhere that there was a rehearsal in the studio on the day of the show. I also read that the conditions in the studio (acoustics? temperature? humidity?) were so good that Bobby proposed to Bill that he (Bobby) could add those high notes at the end of the song that night - notes that were NOT on the studio recording (album) that had become a hit that summer. Thus, without that rehearsal, we likely would not have heard those high notes in Bobby's live performance later that night.

I think we are fortunate it was that way. Since he is in the middle of the audience, and if they had gone kind of crazy, we wouldn't have this amazing video. He would have been drowned out, and maybe even blocked from view. On a show like Shindig, made for teenagers, the audience could and did go wild. (There he is on stage a distance from the audience.) His performance of this song on Shindig is different, both his delivery/body language and the audience reaction. However, both performances are fantastic!

The late, great Bobby Hatfield. He had an incredible voice and range. The term "Blue-Eyed Soul" was coined for this group as they sang with so much soul. Backstory on this performance and song.....the recorded version is slightly different than this tv version. The song came from an old prison movie called Unchained. There were 3 recorded versions ( with Al Hibbler's being the best) until Bobby sang it. Now there have been over 650 covers of the song. For most of us though, Bobby's is the best. His recorded version is featured in the movie Ghost ( giving it a rebirth onto the music charts)and has been used in tv commercials. Bobby was 24 when he sang this. He had a cold, and was very nervous because his mother was in the audience. It was her first time seeing him perform. No pressure, right? His performance was perfectly flawless and is the gold standard that others who cover it try to meet. Elvis' cover of the song is very good. Even though his health was failing his voice was strong and he did an excellent job. The Righteous Brothers don't have a big play list together, but what they do have is great. They split up for many years but eventually reunited to do concert tours. Bill Medly ( the skinny one) did a duet ( her name escapes me) and the song was a big hit...from the movie Dirty Dancing: I Had The Time of my Life.

Bobby Hatfield on his own is amazing. But Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley together -- the Righteous Brothers -- are pure magic. Check out their big breakout hit, "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'," which is on KZbin in a black-and-white video. And their hit from a year later called "(You're My) Soul and Inspiration" is also excellent. That's the sound they're most known for. But their first hit was one I don't think any reaction channel has done yet. It was written by Bill Medley, and it's called "Little Latin Lupe Lu." More of a rock 'n roll song. There's another hit they had that Bobby sang solo called "Ebb Tide." Unfortunately, there are no live performances by Bobby of it on KZbin (don't be fooled, there's one by a guy who looks and sounds a lot like Bobby, but it's not him). But the studio recording is on KZbin, and it's excellent.

Beautiful reaction to an absolutely beautiful performance that I was fortunate enough to have seen when it was originally televised. Bravo, sir!

Great reaction! Another fantastic song by the Righteous Brothers is You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling. Even though the taller one’s voice is much deeper, they compliment each other perfectly.

Loved that you showed respect. Your intro showing the two Righteous Brothers together, reflecting that there are two singers with one singing a solo. Showcasing them on a popular tv show of the era. You made the effort to present the Total Package. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing this wonderful performance. Bobby's voice control and especially his effortless sliding of scale makes a difficult song seem magical. You are correct with his facial expressions, Bobby knew he was knocking it out of the park. Easy Peasy for a great artist.

I’ve listened to this since I was 12, I’m now 65, it never gets old. That’s a mark of great music.

This is an example of what we seniors of today called “blue eyed soul” back in our day.
