It's about time The Righteous Brothers made the H of F. DW and I have seen them several times and they still put on a great show, for two 62 year old guys. Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield had great hits in the sixties and early 70's. "Unchained Melody", "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'", "(You're My) Soul and Inspiration", "Rock and Roll Heaven", "Little Latin Lupe Lu" etc. They were christened "blue eyed soul". Bill Medley did a duet with Jennifer Warnes, "The Time of My Life" in 1987, it was an Oscar-winning theme, from the movie Dirty Dancing.

"Unchained Melody" for the second time, became a big hit, when it was featured in the movie "Ghost".
