There's another great version of this tune that was sung by Billy Stewart be sure to checkout his version of it. That song was written in 1934 by Gershwin. Probably one of the most covered songs in history.

@@1982nsu Reuben, Bobby did Not die of a cocaine overdose!! He died of a massive heart attack. He and Bill flew into the city, and Bill says in his book that Bobby looked very bad. He just wanted to go to his room and have his dinner before the show. He was found on his bed with the TV remote in his hand. No drugs in the room. The press went away disappointed because their was no scandal. Bill worked with him for over 40 years. He saw no evidence of drug abuse. H said he would done some intervention. The best evidence is Bobby himself. Every performance over more than 40 years. Perfect. Never missed a note or a beat. Clear eyed, steady, flawless. Drugs? Nope! Just reporting by people who wanted sensationalism or...plain jealousy.

Bobby was amazing. A counter- tenor, no falsetto here. Besides the Big Three, their most reacted to, there are so many great ones. Ebb Tide byBobby. . Brown eyed Woman by Bill. I Just wanna Make Love To You. Bill leads on that one. It'll blow you away. Very bluesy. You must hear Bobby's "Stay With Me" recorded when he was older. The raw emotion and feeling these two projected in their music was very real. Duo or solo, they were amazing!

There was more to it than that,but basically the truth. Everything they said to Andy W. was a comedy routine. Some people even thought Bill was telling the truth about thinking Unchained Melody was not going to be a hit. Hogwash. Bill wrote a book you know and I'm sure the real story is in the book. Haven't bought my copy yet. But I did hear him tell real story in an interview. Most all performers on those old variety shows had a little comedy routine during introductions. And the audience gave rapt attention during the talent with applause AFTER. The screaming and carrying on started with Elvis and continues today. Although it was 1940s when girls were acting crazy for Sinatra...but evidently they were paid to do so.Or so I've read and my Mama said.

A mutual friend (the late guitarist, Barry Rillera, aka the 3rd righteous brothers) introduced them. At that time they were in different groups. Barry would play in both groups and his own. Barry knew Bill from working with him delivering furniture for a store in Santa Ana. He knew Bobby from Long Beach State University where they were both students. They were playing at John's Black Derby in Santa Ana with the Paramours for several months. Bobby's group the Variations had broken up, and he had joined the reorganized Paramours. Marines from the El Toro Marine base would go to hear them and, yes, they would call them righteous brothers all during their time at that club. They took the name Righteous Brothers when they made their first record as a duo.
