Listening to Bobby Hatfield sing is like listening to a whole choir. His voice goes anywhere he wants it to and it is pure and simple and sincere and rich. God took him from us too soon. Rest in peace Bobby, Your singing will live forever and you were this soul of the righteous Brothers

@@EmmaGS I know what you mean. I don't understand why he had to write such negativity about Bobby. It just didn't matter. Anyone who knew Bobby personally or professionally said that he was the nicest guy you could know. So I would ask Bill, "Are you perfect?" Bobby was a good husband and father. He took such good care of Linda, she suffered from lupus, and he always saw the she had the best care. All of his four kids adored him. He organized a golf tournament to raise money for lupus research, which brought in almost a million dollars. Yes Bobby had some issues, who doesn't? But besides being a great singer and loyal friend, he was simply a great man, and I miss him. It's easy to forget that he's gone.

“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 73 key piano. No other male singers can do that. Legendary. “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’’ was the most played song on radio in the 20th Century "Unchained Melody" - Bobby Hatfield Live 1965 Andy Williams Show . Considered by most as The Greatest Live Male Vocal Performance In History... I agree. Bobby’s use of “Runs” is masterful. He created the style and set the table that all others have fed off of for decades. 7 notes just to say the word “I” is melodic brilliance. Their name came from doing a show near a marine base in So Calif and a black marine said to them…. You two guys are Righteous Brothers. 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 Feeling" - "Soul And Inspiration".... They were perfect, awesome, amazing, incredible......

Zanhar has done some research recently, and the initial report that Bobby was attacked is correct. It was a bartender at the Hop who Bobby tried to stop from driving drunk while inside the club. When Bobby and his wife were walking to their car, he tackled Bobby from behind causing him to fall face first doing extensive damage to his face and knocking out his teeth and splitting his palate. Linda, Bobby's wife, filed a police report late the next day after he got out of surgery.

I've become a huge fan of the Platters and have been reading about their experience singing live in the 50's. That's not long before the Righteous Brothers became popular. In the 50's black singers could perform for a white audience but they weren't allowed to look a white person in the eye. Concerts were segregated. Fences divided Negroes from the white audience. When they toured they were aware that the KKK could be waiting for them at their next stop because their performance dates were sent ahead. You're disgusted about no air time on black radio stations? I hope I've put things in perspective for you.
