I love The Righteous Brothers and the way they do this song! In exploring the '60's I hope you won't skip over Elvis Presley who changed music as we knew it back in '55. He and Bill Medley were friends, and when they were both performing in Vegas in the '70s Elvis sometimes showed up during a Righteous Brothers performance, just walked across the stage, said hi to Bill and kept on walking. Anyway, I hope you'll react to: Elvis Presley You've Lost That Lovin Feeling Live 1970 (4:13). I know it's not the '60's but close enough? Elvis's interpretation makes it sound like a completely different song.

She was 16 when she was part of Phil Spector's wall of sound. We who grew up with this music and the clean cut style of the entertainers have it way over what is happening now. This is a 1964 live performance. This was the way the lighting was done then. No smoke, no flashing lights. You could actually enjoy the performance without ending up deaf for 3 days afterwards and a migraine that went on for weeks.

For now, only one of them has passed. Bobby Hatfield, the shorter, blonde one with the higher-pitched voice, died in 2003 shortly after the two of them were inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Bill Medley (the taller one with the deep voice) still performs under the name Righteous Brothers with a new partner, Bucky Heard. They're not bad together, but it ain't the same. Bobby was special. You should seek out his performance of "Unchained Melody" (where he's wearing the pink suit). It is one of the most remarkable live performances ever captured on videotape. And oh, by the way, 1965 was not that long ago. There are plenty of us around who were alive back then. Millions of us. Now, 1865, that was a long time ago. But that was back when Lincoln freed the slaves, and I'm pretty sure that is just as relevant and widely accepted today as it was then. I'm frankly insulted by the notion that just because something happened in the past, it has somehow become "distant" to us. I would argue music like this is just as relevant and alive today as it was then.

For those of us who grew up with this music, it is a shock for me to hear someone say they've "never heard of... (whatever from my era)." I understand, and it gives me a sense of pride to hear young people such as yourselves, getting into the music of two generations ago, with such enthusiasm and honesty. It only proves how really good "our" music was and still is. This is all very nostalgic for someone my age (73), who still claims we had the best stuff. All that said, I would like to suggest (if you haven't yet) that you react to Alan Price's rendition of "I Put A Spell On You." kzitem.info/news/bejne/uIdqwHt9rV9ipag - live recording of the former organist for The Animals ("House Of The Rising Sun"), and he was the second best singer in that group, so you can only imagine Eric Burdon's voice!
