“Love Is Strange” (Peaches & Herb) #13 11/11/1967

The fifth and last Top 40 record for over a decade from Peaches and Herb. It was a remake of a Bo Diddley-written song that was a huge hit in 1957 by another duo, Mickey and Sylvia. There were many cover versions over the years but this was the most successful. Peaches and Herb wouldn't chart this highly again until "Shake Your Groove Thing" in 1978. Sylvia Robinson had a solo hit in 1973 with "Pillow Talk."
