A - Not necessarily upset. Q - Bobby, did you ever get upset when your music was referred to as 'Blue Eyed Soul', whatever that was. If There's A Rock And Roll Heaven. Less than a year and a half later, on November 5th, 2003, Bobby Hatfield passed away. On that day I had the opportunity to interview Bobby Hatfield.

Hatfield was involved in a traffic accident that turned deadly.“Unchained Melody” is a 1955 song with music by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret. Misty for Me and beloved Arrested Development star with a long resume, dies at 80. Niet alleen heeft zijn collega, bariton Bill Medley, het toch tot enige grotere bekendheid geschopt, het is vooral wraakroepend dat één van hun grootste hits, “Unchained melody” uit 1965, de geschiedenis is ingegaan als “van The Righteous Brothers”, terwijl Bill Medley daarop niet eens te horen is! Postume hulde dus voor Bobby Hatfield!. Enkel “specialisten” zullen hem herkennen als de tenor uit het vocale duo The Righteous Brothers.
They were often told they sounded like African-American gospel singers and chose the name after black Marines remarked of their singing, “that’s righteous, brothers”.In 1964, they met the music producer Phil Spector, who signed them to his own label Philles Records. In 1962, Hatfield joined force with Medley who was in a group called the Paramours, and formed a five-member group using the same name Paramours.Later they performed as a duo and named their singing act The Righteous Brothers. He eventually encountered his singing partner, Bill Medley, while attending California State University, Long Beach.Bobby Hatfield initially was in a group called the Variations.
The new partnership released an album but did not have much success. However the duo broke up in 1968, and Hatfield teamed up with singer Jimmy Walker (from The Knickerbockers) using the Righteous Brothers name on the MGM label. Another two of the last songs the duo recorded with Philles Records, “The White Cliffs of Dover” and “For Sentimental Reasons”, were also performed solo by Hatfield.In 1966, the Righteous Brothers left Spector and signed with Verve/MGM Records, and had a hit with “(You’re My) Soul and Inspiration”. Both “Unchained Melody” and “Ebb Tide” were songs he had performed with his first group, the Variations. After the success of “Unchained Melody”, Spector then started recording older standards with the Righteous Brothers such as “Ebb Tide”, which Hatfield also performed solo. The follow-up hit was “Unchained Melody,” which was actually a Hatfield solo performance, as I’ve said several times.
In 1990, after the success of the 1990 film Ghost where “Unchained Melody” was used, Hatfield re-recorded “Unchained Melody”, and Hatfield remarked to friends that he had not lost any of the high notes in his tenor range since the original recording, but had actually gained one note. However, MGM was in financial trouble, a scheduled single “The Promised Land”/”Woman You Got No Soul” was not released, and with little promotion the album largely went unnoticed.Hatfield and Medley reunited in 1974, and had another hit, “Rock and Roll Heaven.” A hiatus followed between 19 when Medley retired from music after his wife died, but they reunited for an anniversary special on American Bandstand in 1981 to perform an updated version of “Rock And Roll Heaven”. In 1971, he released a solo album, Messin’ In Muscle Shoals, recorded at the FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals in August 1970. In 1969, Hatfield also appeared in a TV movie, The Ballad of Andy Crocker.
They had two children, Bobby Jr. Show and Where the Action Is. The Righteous Brothers were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in March 2003 by Billy Joel.In his personal life Hatfield had a short marriage with Joy Ciro, who appeared as a dancer on the T.A.M.I.
The couple had two children, Vallyn and Dustin.Hatfield died at the Radisson Hotel in downtown Kalamazoo, Michigan on November 5, 2003, found by an employee at the hotel.
