Chad & Jeremy - Yesterday's Gone (1964)

From the 60's era, another chart buster. Talk about feel good music, not only good music, good times as well, a great throwback song to yesteryear....

[@JohnCee754]

I know today's young folks hate to hear this all the time but MAN OH MAN am I glad I grew up in the 60's and had all those great tunes like this one.. songs you could sing along to and they never got old! Ah memories!

[@aspirecan4829]

Same for the '80s. Hubby and I go to a restaurant near us where they pay videos and music. It's a lot of "music" from the '90s through today. It seems like no matter how songs they play from that time frame, it all sounds like one run on song. The videos also make no sense and don't really apply to the song. Give me music from '60s-'80s any day! That was the era is really great music!

[@harrodsfan]

The 80s didn't really have any quality music. A lot of heavy metal and boy bands.

John, you're not the only one.I grew up,played all the songs on bass and guitar all throughout the years and never regretted it! I had fun and still to this day, people are asking me to play guitar to certain songs.

[@davidshirley6947]

Everyone my age likes to remember “when.” But you know, those weren’t just the good old days for us. Things in society have changed. And not for the better. Our generation might have had “old fashioned values,” but those are timeless. We were not a violent generation. There were no school shootings in those days. We had bullies. But that was the extent of it. Our youth, in my humble opinion, was a more innocent time. The music reflects it. We were starry-eyed. And in many ways, a lot of us still are.

Yesterday's Gone, and now today Mr. Stuart has too. I have been a massive Chad and Jeremy and Peter and Gordon fan since they started. Now each of them has lost a partner. The hardest part of old age is you keep losing more than you gain, family, friends, heroes, icons, favorite entertainers and sports figures. 2020 has been especially rough in the last few mentioned areas. It seems almost very day this year, or at least every week someone has past that made me laugh, brought me joy, soothed me with song, inspired me, or in some form brighten my 71 years. To Mr. Stuart and all those others Thank you, I am sorry I put off writing to thank you, I look forward to the day I can thank you in person. My sympathy to Mr. Clyde on the loss of your mate, (as you British say), and your partner. Rest in Peace Mr. Stuart. You will be deeply missed.

Chad Stuart, of the English singing duo of Chad & Jeremy, died on December 20th, 2020 at his home in Hailey, Idaho of pneumonia. He was 79 years old... Between 1963 and 1966 the duo had eleven records on Billboard's Top 100 chart, one made the Top 10, "A Summer Song", it peaked at #7 {for 2 weeks} in October of 1964... They had two Top 20 records, "Willow Weep For Me" {#15 in 1964} and "Before and After" {#17 in 1965}... Surprisingly, they had only one charted record in their native England, "Yesterday's Gone", it reached #37 in 1963... May Mr. Stuart R.I.P.
