Jeremy Clyde is an English actor and musician who, during the 1960s, was one-half of the folk duo Chad & Jeremy! It was awesome getting to speak with Jeremy about his friendship with his now touring buddy Peter Asher who was on the show a few weeks ago, how he and Chad Stuart started working together which lead to their first hit song in the UK with "Yesterday's Gone". That became a hit in the United States in the following year as part of the British Invasion.
We also talk about his classical acting background his appearance with Chad on the Dick Van Dyke Show and his bottom drawer sessions he’s been doing all through the pandemic to great success! Enjoy!
