Judith Durham, R.I.P.
- Thread starter Darts
- Start date
On a day skiving off school probably in 1965 I crossed paths with them walking down Oxford Street looking just like this. The guy on the left wasn't with them.
My mum liked them. The guy with the horn rimmed glasses looks like an Australian banker.
RIP. Judy.
We are all getting old. I thought her signature song was I'll never find another you. or even Georgie girl.

You are correct, Mr Mugabe. The Seekers' #1 hit was "I'll Never Find Another You, written by Dusty Springfield's brother, Tom." A couple of years later, "Georgy Girl," from the Lynn Redgrave movie of the same name, was #1 in the U.S. and U.K. "Georgy Girl" was also written by Tom Springfield. What does "Waltzing Matilda" have to do with the Seekers, Darts? It's an Aussie folk song that all Aussies sing. If you were around in the sixties, you would know that the Seekers were a big group in the folk genre in the 60s, right up there with Peter Paul and Mary.
Over the last few years, Judith Durham has been beset with several health issues such as a broken hip, a stroke and chronic lung disease.
I collected all of their LPs during the sixties.
