    No theatrics, no boob and butt-baring costumes, no pyro, no auto-tune - just very talented people playing and singing. My favorite kind of music. And at the end of the day the only kind of music that matters, and that will last.

      Amen! Music was the focus of the talent then, not current (and near-past) corporate creations with minimal talent designed to sell streaming subscriptions to benefit only the companies. Artistry and talent ruled until "disco" in the 1970's and it has all been largely downhill since. "Auto-tune" = farce.

    The Seekers were a great Australian folk pop band from the 60's. And Judith Durham had such a beautiful voice. They had so many great hits including "A World Of Our Own", "Georgy Girl", "The Carnival Is Over", "Morningtown Ride", "Someday, One Day" etc. They have beautiful voices & harmonies. They don't make nostalgic music like this anymore. Reminds me of a simpler time.

    This was done at the abbey road studios, famous for the Beatles recording there. Judith Durham is a pocket rocket, with such a strong voice. Did you notice they all played this and sang it together, no layering or blending tracks, on a huge tape machine, that used reels of tape. The large instrument is a double bass. After Judith quit, she had self-esteem issues, the new seekers formed as a tribute band.

    These four make the original group. Judith left in 1968 to sing on her own. Various replacement singers made the New Seekers. In 1993 these four made a 25 year anniversary tour and in 2013 a 50 year tour. Over the years they maintained their friendship in Melbourne and were friends to the end. The three men were high school buds and thought of Judith as their kid sister (She was the youngest.)

    You should search for, “The seekers, 1994 AFL grand final.” They sing their top hit, “Georgie Girl,” which is an incredible song. Then if you want to talk about emotional, they also sing, “I am Australian.” Even your fellow Americans get choked up over that one. This is followed by an Australian classic called, “Waltzing Matilda. Then they do a fabulous job of singing the Australian national anthem. They are obviously a lot older in this video, but their sound has not changed one little bit.
    If you want to know about AFL, Australian rules football, the most exciting game on the planet, search for, “What is AFL?” Trust me, you won’t be disappointed.

    I just finished watching a Vocal Analysis Video of Judith Durham when I spotted this video. She definitely an Aussie Icon and out Original Pocket Rocket. At one stage they outsold The Beatles. They did make an unforgettable come back in the early 90's with one of their Biggest Hits in Australia. Many Aussies want it as Our New National Anthem "I Am Australian". Many reactions have recently discovered that song, which you don't have to live here to appreciate. Unlike America we don't Label People based on their decent unlike African American etc. No matter where you're from we're all Just Aussies. We also adopt people as Honorary Aussies as well, so long as they conform to our standards of behaviour. If you're a Modest, Down To Earth, Warm Friendly Person who'll stop to say "Hello!" or stop to talk with anyone your in. No matter who you are an Overinflated Ego will get you into trouble. This includes our Celebrities including Chris Hemsworth and Hugh Jackman. So long as your Respectful, don't Mob them asking before going for an Autograph or Selfie they're usually happy to give you one. Of course not everyone is like that unfortunately. But if we see or hear someone being Offensive, we won't let them get away with it. At the very least they'll got a firm talking to. I remember once when an Openly Racist Politician was running for office. A National News Crew turned up at His home 🏡 for an interview. They gave him enough rope and he hung himself. He wasn't elected.

    A truly beautiful song from the 60's. So much good music came from the 60's. There's a reason you hear many commercial that use 60's music, and even some from the 50's. Great review Jayvee😊

    There were two groups: the Seekers and the New Seekers. When the Seekers broke up, Keith Potger formed the New Seekers but they weren't as successful. RIP Judith Durham who died this year only days before the death of Olivia Newton John. xxx

    Soon after Judith went solo, Keith Potger formed 'The New Seekers', which had a few songs featured in radio airplay in the early 1970's. I remember just 2 of them; 'Where in the world', and 'All my life's a circle', out of several productions. I can't remember the female lead vocalist of them, but constantly wonder if it were Judith, would they too carry as much appeal as the original Seekers..?

    The Seekers were a great folk/pop group, from Australia, back in my day. I love their songs and used to sing some of them. I was told once that I sounded like Judith Durham, the girl here. I agree about songs back in the sixties being so much more profound. I was lucky to be young at that time. So many great songs, so much great music. Nice to see the old upright bass too. :) Try their The Carnival is Over. The New Seekers were a completely different band.

    So happy to see you continue to enjoy the music of my younger days. The Seekers were from somewhere in Australia. They had some other pretty good songs, too. The Seekers remind me of Peter, Paul and Mary, The Kingston Trio, and The Brothers Four.

    The New Seekers were a different band from a generation or so later; they may have had one or more of the original band.

    The New Seekers were put together in the belief that they could match The Seekers and fill the gap left, when they ended. They couldn't, they didn't, they never will. Judith Durham's voice is iconic. She did a farewell tour of Australia and New Zealand a few years ago. She was still recovering from a stroke, but her voice was the same. A truly lovely woman.

    The Seekers are the original band. Judith Durham left and Athol Guy and the other guys formed The New Seekers. Then they convinced Judith to come back many many years later to reform The Seekers.. The Seekers music is really timeless and Judith Durhams voice is stellar

      From Wikipedia "The group was formed after the disbanding of the successful 1960s Australian group the Seekers. Keith Potger, a member of the Seekers, put together the New Seekers in 1969, featuring Laurie Heath, Chris Barrington, Marty Kristian, and Eve Graham and Sally Graham (no relation), the latter of whom was a member of The Young Generation. Potger himself also performed and recorded with the group.["

    Judith Durham was 19 years old when The Seekers recorded this song, which went to Number 1 on the charts, ahead of a group called The Beatles and another group called The Rolling Stones. The recording engineers were clever (or lucky) to not allow Judith's voice to be overwhelmed by the rest of the music and accompanying vocals. Her subtle vibratto hooks me every time.

    released in 1964 - I was 6 yrs old and had a 17 yr old aunt that lived with us. I knew all the new hits...and still know them. Good memories. Judy Durham was the female member - she recently passed away (August 2022).
