The duo's first single, "Yesterday's Gone", was their only real UK hit; revelations of Jeremy's upper-class upbringing hurt their popular image. However, Chad and Jeremy's sensitive, strings-backed sound held a greater appeal in America, where they perhaps 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" and "Before and After" reached the top 20, and altogether Chad and Jeremy had seven U.S. Top 40 hits during 1964-66.
