I've changed my mind, Judith was the tops!

Just read that she has died.

A very long way from the sort of thing that I usually listen to which obviously makes up the majority of my record collection, but I've always liked some of The Seekers stuff.

Sad news. For many of us hers was the music of our youth. There seemed to be in those days rather more of what you might call ‘folk music’ in the charts.

Seems strange I was only listening (and singing along) with a load of their songs the other day, they came up on a Youtube recommendation, I was surprised how many of the words I knew

Sad to hear this news.
She had a wonderful singing voice. Another part of my childhood /youth gone.

A wonderful, pure voice.
Some good memories from the 60s for me.

I have them on my old ipod and was listening to one of their albums last evening.
Takes me back a long time.

The very first record I owned was “World of our Own”. 😢

PS. If I’m not mistaken, “Sinnerman” was on the flip side.
