Subject: RE: 1960's Australian Folk Albums
Well, there were The Seekers, and The Seekers.... Originally just the 3 guys, then Judith joined them (for a while they were known as Judith Durham & The Seekers), then again just by their original name.... I recall being one of only 12 people in the audience (matching the number of performers on stage, BTW) at what was their final Austraian concert - Emerald hill Theatre, South Melbourne - before they sailed off to England in hopes of making it big.... And almost 40 years ago replacing Bruce Woodley at The Reata in Prahran to score my first 'residency', not to mention replacing Judith Durham as the vocalist with Frank Traynor's Jazz Preachers....
