I've always loved the Righteous Brothers!😁 It's so interesting to hear what these people say about what they didn't think would work! Obviously, these people didn't know a whole lot about the rest of the world!😄
The thing that was the absolute best was we were born into the best music of all time!🥰 Thank you for these stories that mean so much to us.🥰
Bill has a treasure trove of fantastic stories. So cool, funny, gives tons of praise to others, and he was there.
I could listen to Bill's stories all day. Personable, classy, so talented.....Wow!! I love hearing the history of the songs. Thanks for doing the interview, Bill!!
I love these back stories. So many intertwined artists lives. These interviews should be placed in the rock. Artist perspectives. Especially those that are still living. Wow I love it.
THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS ARE A LEGEND.....I love their music. Good to hear and see Bill, looking so handsome and sounding so great. GREAT INTERVIEW!!! P.S.......I think most of the baby boomers and even later, have a story regarding the amazing, beautiful voices of Bill and Robert. Please keep producing beautiful music with your blessed voice Bill. THANK YOU, FROM MY HEART.
Great interview, and what memories. Though only age 8 in '64 (Lovin' Feeling), I was a huge fan of these two, even more so after their appearance on the TV show, Please Don't Eat the Daisies in '67. Twelve years later (age 23), Undercover Angel writer/singer/friend Alan O'Day (who coincidentally wrote the RB Rock & Roll Heaven) steered me to his music publisher, where my first song covered as a songwriter was by Bobby Hatfield. Talk about a happy kid!
Incredible memories...priceless!
Lovely stuff, thank you for posting it. The hits and the misses....what stories. Bill sounds like such a lovely guy.
We miss Bobby Bill but we have to move on. Love you Guy!
I love this series of interviews.
brilliant post love bill and bobby, j vincent edwards
The guy doing the interview is the best I have ever heard (or not heard). He should conduct a class on how it is done. Of course with Medley you don't really have to pull anything out of him.
love this man always!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CRAZY STUFF !
You are right, it was The Cinnamon Cinder
"without you baby, what good am I?" lead to "God only knows what I'd be without you"
i heard you've lost that lovin' feeling was pitched to the everlys who turned it down-but that story may be wrong
Bill Medley was born on September 19, 1940
in Santa Ana, California, not Los Angeles.
another great interview; man how many are there?
I HEAR BILL SANG A SONG I MADE A DEAL WITH THE ANGEL OF MUSIC...BUT I HAVE NEVER HEARD IT..DOES ANYONE KNOW THE SONG?
This is interesting, as the Righteous Brothers had a great sound that I still enjoy. But I blush when I hear about all the songs they turned down that became hits for others. Decisions were made about songs all the time. I like the uptempo numbers, but I cringe when I hear Bill talk about the album filler-songs, the ballads, since those are the ones that I really wanted to hear. For me, they had an R&B/soul sound, not a rock 'n' roll sound, and the "ballads" as he calls them, are the soul end of their sound. Early on, their sound was a little more bluesy, and from this interview, I don't know that Bill gets it as far as song material goes, in that the ballads should not have been throw-aways or filler.
I agree, those older songs were really good and deserve more credit.
I am trying to remember which interview it was on, but, he gets it regarding ballads, etc. He produced a lot of their music and albums.
Just one in my Life was the gem on 15 Big Ones! Beautiful harmonies at the end. Was Bill M. involved in the BB version? Does anyone know? That was a great interview btw. Spector must have really been good!
Too bad Phil Spector threw his life down the toilet. He was a strange little guy to begin with.
