In 1964, music producer Phil Spector conducted the band at a show in San Francisco, and he was impressed enough with the duo to want them to record for his own label, Philles Records. All the songs previously produced by Spector for his label featured African-American singers, and the Righteous Brothers would be his first white vocal act. However, they had a vocal style, termed blue-eyed soul, that suited Spector. The result "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin" is cited by some music critics as the ultimate expression and illustration of his Wall of Sound recording technique. The song was released in November 1964 and reached no.1 in the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada.
