The apple clearly doesn’t fall far from the tree as Stuart has musical talent much like his dad.
Stuart even released two albums, “The Apple Tree” and “Clean Slate.”
There, he and Michael Thomas Jeremy Clyde became friends and they formed a band.
“When I met Chad, I could play six chords,” Jeremy stated on theirwebsite.
“And gradually, he got me playing 12, then 18, then 24.”
Their band was called The Jerks, and they had a lead singer named Stephen Holder.
It was just the start of their musical journey.
However, Ember couldn’t keep up with the major labels so Barry departed.
However, tensions got so tough between them that they eventually took a break.
Their songs would never achieve the hit status of previous ones, and they finally split up.
However, by 1982 they hooked up with producer Rocky Davis.
“I think Jeremy was missing the musical part of his life,” Chad explained on theirwebsite.
Sadly, Stuart died of pneumonia in December 2020 at age 79.
Gone in physical form but his memory continues to teach me and helps me navigate life.
I will always rely on his influence."
