Eleven Top 40 Hits During the '60's! |
|
|
|
|
Chad Stuart and Jeremy Clyde became a
sensation in America on the wave of the
British Invasion charting 11 Top 40 hits
including the smash "Summer Song,"
"Yesterday's Gone," "Willow Weep for Me," and
"Distant Shores." The duo made appearances
on numerous TV shows in the 60's including
"Dick Van Dyke," "Patti Duke," "Batman" and
"Danny Kaye." They also appeared on "Johnny
Carson's The Tonight Show," "Andy Williams,"
"American Bandstand," and "Hullaballo." They
continued to rack up the hits and tour
throughout the 1960's, but have rarely
performed together since then, as an ocean
and many acting and musical projects diverted
their life paths.
