  • Chad and Jeremy was a singing folk rock duo in the 1960s, comprising Chad Stuart (born David Stuart Chadwick, 10 December 1941, Windermere, Cumbria) and Jeremy Clyde (born Michael Thomas Jeremy Clyde, 22 March 1941, Dorney, Buckinghamshire). They were part of the British Invasion, a large influx of British rock and pop musicians to the American music scene. The duo's first single, "Yesterday's Gone", for the Ember Records label, which was arranged by John Barry, was their only UK hit. However, Chad and Jeremy's strings-backed sound held a greater appeal in United States, where they benefitted from an early 1960s strain of commercial folk music. Their second single, "A Summer Song", hit #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1964. Follow-ups "Willow Weep for Me" (a 1930s song that was recorded by Paul Whiteman, Billie Holiday and others; Chad & Jeremy's cover version went #1 on the Easy Listening chart) and "Before and After" reached the Top 20, and altogether Chad and Jeremy had seven U.S. Top 40 hits during 1964-66. In the fall of 1967 they released one of their most ambitious albums, Of Cabbages and Kings. This psychedelic, satirical album was very different from the previous mellow Chad and Jeremy offerings and was rated very highly by the music critics of the day but sold poorly, as did the follow-up, the also critically acclaimed The Ark. The duo appeared as themselves in the episodes "The Cat's Meow" and "The Bat's Kow Tow" of the television series Batman, in which the guest villain was Julie Newmar as Catwoman. They played a fictional duo called 'The Redcoats' on an episode of the TV sitcom Dick Van Dyke Show that satirized Beatlemania. They also had a guest appearance on the Patty Duke Show where they performed the song "The Truth Often Hurts the Heart. " They appeared as itinerant actors in "That's Noway, Thataway," a 1966 episode of the comedic western Laredo. Stuart voiced Flaps the vulture in Disney's 1967 film The Jungle Book. Clyde appeared as a bachelor contestant on the The Dating Game where he won. Chad and Jeremy later reunited, and are now doing concerts. Jeremy and Chad are the namesakes of Jeremy Duncan and his brother Chad in the comic strip Zits. In 2003 PBS reunited Chad and Jeremy with a 1960s Pop Reunion Special which also prompted a tour. They have been touring ever since. In 2008 a Greatest Hits album, Ark-eology was released and a new album Zanzibar Sunset as well as a documentary titled Yesterday's Back are due to be released in 2009. They performed at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah in January 2009. They will be touring all year.

  • Chad & Jeremy foi uma dupla de folk rock dos anos 60 composta por Chad Stuart e Jeremy Clyde. Eles foram parte da Invasão Britânica, um grande influxo de músicos de rock e pop britânicos para os EUA. O primeiro compacto da dupla, "Yesterday's Gone" foi seu único sucesso na Grã-Bretanha. Mas nos Estados Unidos seu som teve grande apelo, talvez devido ao sucesso comercial da música folk no começo dos anos 60. Seu segundo compacto, "A Summer Song", ficou em sétimo lugar na lista "Billboard Hot 100" da Billboard em 1964. Os seguintes, "Willow Weep For Me" e "Before And After" alcançaram o Top 20, e no total Chad e Jeremy emplacaram sete músicas no Top 40 entre 1964 e 1966. A dupla se separou em 1968, depois de Jeremy iniciar uma bem-sucedida carreira de ator. Website oficial
