"Unchained Melody" - Righteous Brothers

I think most of the sales on the 1990 rerecording was
due to misinformation by customers. They probably ask
for the song by the Righteous Brothers and that's what
the record .. er cassette dealer sold them. So as you
stated they probably didn't get the one they heard in
the movie or on the radio. I never liked the 1990
version it pales in comparison to the original.

Tom mentions the AFM recording contract, but it does
not list a producer,(or Bill Medley)only 13 musicians
and that is probably the basic session..with overdubs
later for sweetening. The Mike Patterson Band is
credited on the Just Once In My Life album along with
joint production credit of Phil Spector and Bill
Medley.
