Biography Bill Medley

One half of the popular soul duo the Righteous Brothers, Bill Medley met his singing partner Bobby Hatfield at California State University. By 1962, the pair had released their first single, "Little Latin Lupe Lu." They followed this with a chain of hits over the coming years, including "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling," "Soul Inspiration," and "Unchained Melody." After the group broke up in 1968, Medley went on to cultivate a solo career, scoring a number of hits including the 1987 duet with Jennifer Warnes "(I've Had) The Time of My Life," which appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dirty Dancing. He also co-wrote the themes for TV shows like Growing Pains and Just the Ten of Us.
