My show's moniker is The Quest for Silver - songs from a bygone era that were NOT number one but we fondly remember them and want to hear them and some of the stories around them. So if you are a fan of the best era in pop music you have come to the right place. I'm Chris Tuffer and I started broadcasting these old tunes back on the 1960's so I and you remember them well. Anything from The Beatles, The Stones, The Mamas and the Papas, The Monkees and well the list is almost endless. Please come by and check out my podcast with mostly music and a modicum of chatter.

Aretha Franklin Chain of fools after an interview by me Chris Tuffer. Freddie and the Dreamers are next with I'm Telling you now. Next is Count me in by Gary Lewis and the Playboys. Stay tuned to hear more secondary sentimental songs.

    Gimme Gimme Good Lovin' - The Spencer Davis Group followed by The Electric Prunes and I had too much to dream - Then Martha Reeves and the Vandellas and their number two selection Jimmy Mack. Before we hear Neil Diamond and you got to me we have Sloop John B by the Beach Boys. The Capitols and Cool Jerk was recorded and released in 1966 and of course was a bona fide number two. Sonny and Cher with The Beat goes on is just ahead of the next silver song entitled Words of love by the Mamas and the Papas - and not to worry there is more for you.
