He was the shorter, blonde Righteous Brother. He sang the solo on Unchained Melody, their most recognizable recording.

EDIT: BTW, it was recorded in the mid-60's. You may not be old enough to remember it the way I do. Then, too, I married a Righteous Brothers groupie. She insisted that we travel all over the States to see them in concert.

Their music was commonly referred to as Blue-Eyed Soul.
