Judith totally took command of the "boys". She keeps them on track and in sync. The sheer column of her choice overtakes them and bursts with energy and life. Fantastic voice, happy to have found them and that they continued to produce songs and performed together until Judith's death. What a legacy she left behind for all of us to discover anew.
The world loves Judith, she is fine wine! What s stunningly beautiful lady! Along with Dame Shirley, the greatest female singer ever! You are one of the wonders of the world Judith.
Oh how beautiful... one of my Seekers' favorites. That crystal-clear, clean, strong, sheer MUSICAL voice of Judith's - I love her. God bless you, Judith, may you sing for many years yet!
Can't really disagree , the guys back Judith so well ... but she IS a truly great singer , and great singers like this will always stand out from the pack.
A friend turned me on to The Seekers a few months ago and am I so grateful for that. This performance has become my favorite particularly when not only hearing Judith but watching her body motions. Every inch of her exudes music moving in rhythm with each note. Even though I was around when they were in their prime, I missed knowing of them and that is one of my biggest regrets with now only being able to hear and see them on recordings like this. Thank's you so much Denny.
Their harmony and great musicianship represented a perfect vessel for accomplished and aspiring songwriters to write songs for. The song "Massachusetts" was written especially for them by the Bee Gees, but the members of the group never knew this at the time. This particular song would have immediately introduced and endeared the Seekers to the American audience in a most fundamental and significant way. Judith would have had thousands of red blooded American males interested in her and she surely would have had to change her phone number.
Whoever posted this concert (almost in it's entirety!), a deep 'thank you.' HD's stunning, as is the sound. This was the 1st record I owned when I was little (my dad worked at a radio station, and brought them home). Not gonna bemoan how the music, life was better (it was), but, it brings back wonderful, memories, for me - and, apparently many others. THIS is what 'sharing' on the internet's about. Not 'tweeting' every bit of nonsense. But sharing with others. Cheers!
As several below have commented, Judith Durham's voice is displayed here classically....such incredible range. She is truly one of the greatest all-time female singers. Don't think there is anyone today who can hold a candle to her.
Hear hear - U N Owen - my sentiments exactly - I don't do tweet and I don't do Facebook - this is my site - I love listening to 60's music - it was and still is the best!!!
+Chris Yau My fellow humans, if you are sad and down for whatever your reason listent to Judith and The Seekers sing you this song and all your pains and miseries will vanish.
As a musician I can hear that while her voice is magic, without the harmonies and carefully understated guitar riffs it simply wouldn't have worked so well. Generally I despise strummers like those buskers you see (and unfortunately hear) everywhere, but in this band they blended it as part of the overall sound and it works. Jimi Hendrix needed his guitar to sing for him because he couldn't. They have someone who can. The Seekers are so good because they've got it exactly right.
Agree. Note she never prospered as much outside this setting. A soloist is as much an actor as a singer, and after she left it took her awhile to develop a stage presence that matched the quality of her voice. She was, after all, still quite young.
I am not a musician but I have listened to a lot of operatic singing. There is no doubt that even great singers need instrumental accompanyment to voice. Rare pieces can be sung without it. With Judith Durham the same happens. As said in other comments, in the seekers case outstanding results are obtained, thanks to Keith's work on the harmonies and their remarkable guitar playing. Many people also highlight Athols bass playing.It seems clear that the natural direction of Judith's career in the 1970s should have been the musicals in the east end on London and elsewhere but she never tried that. I wonder there was a permanent threat of her lung condition to worsen if she did musicals but there are no comments about this in her biography. She opted for small venues accompanied by her husband or their jazz band collaborators. This was a road that would not lead to celebrity but Judith was clearly happy with that since she never sought for a celebrity lifestyle.
The Seekers are such great musicians. They never cease to amaze me - there is so much talent there. Their repertoire is so vast and they are so good, I can listen for hours!
Me too. Sometimes I'll just start playing their songs on youtube in the evening and before I know it, it's late and I've had a WONDERFUL evening smiling, singing and bopping away. I LOVE them!
Mine too! There is only ONE Judith Durham and ONE SEEKERS! This is because the world can only take so much pure talent at one time! I LOVE THE SEEKERS!!!
When I found this on RUclips a short while ago it was the first time I ever heard it. I was only 10 at the time of this performance but I had already been listening to music for a couple of years (thanks to an older brother). I remember Georgie Girl on the radio, and most of their other hits I heard over the years. I cannot believe that I missed this gem. Did it not get air play in Canada?
Oh Judith unbelievable two years had past since youv'e been gone. You are so missed beautiful lady.♥♥♥🌹🌹🌹😭😭😭
The Seekers -unforgettable and irreplaceable!
Love this RIP Judith
Those wonderful The Seekers. Unforgettable atmosphere of the 60's goombay

They are all phenominal! Glasgow 50th concert was a wonderful night and we were privileged to be there.
RIP Judith. You will be missed.
My heart is truly broken now that Judith has passed us by. Her voice will never be forgotten.
Beautiful guitars
And yes, their harmonies and arrangements are gold standards!
I love that cushion of sound accompanying them for this performance!
Ma'am you had so much laughter in your eyes.
The lads and this beautiful lady Judith are awesome. God bless them
Makes a change especially in the 60s a woman takes the lead and the best voice ever
This performance is magic wow !!!
Oh how beautiful... one of my Seekers' favorites. That crystal-clear, clean, strong, sheer MUSICAL voice of Judith's - I love her. God bless you, Judith, may you sing for many years yet!
Magic ! .. Nothing else to say 🙏
The wonderful Aussie Group!~~~The Seekers!! Love is Kind Love is Wine!!!
the clarity of judiths naturally musical voice allows you to hear every single word she sings. amazing and beautiful
Judith Durham and Agnetha Faltskog...the best female voices ever!
I haven't heard this song in a hundred years (exaggeration). Excellent performance. The seekers are the best.
Love the double bass n chorus
NOBODY sounds as good this or looks as good as Judith Durham these days long live the Seekers
Justifiable praise for Judith's voice but please give the lads more credit; their harmonies are superb!
absolutely!
Can't really disagree , the guys back Judith so well ... but she IS a truly great singer , and great singers like this will always stand out from the pack.
As is Bruce Woodley's songwriting ability.
Beautiful harmonies. The Seekers we love you
This is the only group I've ever heard that still sounds as good as they did back then. Simply amazing! Great song...
I agree and then some. I think they sound better today than in the 1960's !
I agree they are amazing, but my heart ached when I heard that Judith had departed this life.
What a song,I could listen to it all day long,long life to the Seekers !!
Thought I was alone on it!
In Australia In 1963 there was Sony Liston and Cassius Clay, president Kennedy, Polly Farmer and the Seekers!
so beautiful
This brings chills of thrills.

Judith wouldn't give a Sepo the time of day, SDhe has class
Thanks: Judith is just wonderful. A treat for my Brain.
What a Sound!!!

One of my favorite Seekers songs. It has a good "beat" and they seem like they really like performing it.
What a great catchy little tune.
Let's get a million views for this special lady
I love it
Forgotten this one! Great song.

Love Keith's part at the end.
So ein schönes Lied! Das erste, das Jörg mir geschickt hat - kannte ich The Seekers vorher nicht so bewusst.

When Australia was reaching its peak optimism.
Her version of Danny Boy is so beautiful and pure if you can look it up.
Gledao stotinu puta❤
1:28 and here.
Judith was a powerhouse!!! What a pure, beautiful voice she packed so much in he small frame. Great group, thanks for sharing them again.
She truly has the voice of an Angel.

They were and still are the most enjoyable musical group to listen to. Thanks for who ya'll were to your fans.
The Seekers are such great musicians. They never cease to amaze me - there is so much talent there. Their repertoire is so vast and they are so good, I can listen for hours!
I'm just thankful for RUclips for making it possible for us to hear this marvelous voice even after Judith has left us, her voice hasn't.
they seem to be enjoying this performance as much as iam listening to it x
THE SEEKERS💖👸🕺👬🌟🤩
Great!🎼🎵🎹🎸🎻🎤📀👍👏
From Hong Kong🙋♀️🌏💝🌺🥰
They always bring my mood up: an incredibly gifted group
Me too. Sometimes I'll just start playing their songs on youtube in the evening and before I know it, it's late and I've had a WONDERFUL evening smiling, singing and bopping away. I LOVE them!
@@tulinfirenze1990 me too!
I was 12yrs old in 1968 what a song I am 67yrs old I play three times a day .
Amazing 🎉
I can hear all day their songs
For my parents who would be about 75 if they were alive.
They knew how important true love and loyalty is is.
Patience,kindness and passion in loyalty
I love how Athol Guy is almost dancing with his bass the whole time. It makes the performance come more alive for me.😊
What a find!
No voice like Judith...love her beautiful voice,it rings like a bell.❤
I can't get enough from this wonderful lady.Fortunately she left us many songs.
Amazing! Can't tell where Judith's voice rests--seems comfortable throughout the entire range of human singing.
It's love is kind love is blind I think
Mine too! There is only ONE Judith Durham and ONE SEEKERS! This is because the world can only take so much pure talent at one time! I LOVE THE SEEKERS!!!
Where did that natural vibrato come from...Only the heavens know.
And it got better as she got older.
Such wonderful harmony.
Having heard this for a few short months (I missed it growing up) I think this MIGHT have become my favourite Seekers song.
Set this as the ringtone on my phone for when my wife calls. The words ring so true.
RIP Judith. You will always be immortal and never be forgotten.
So, that was probably why Jesus turned water into wine.
