    RIP Judith. The Carnival is Over. I’m so upset. Met you at the park near us with Bruce Woodley(a friend of ours) whiles Bruce’s and our dogs played. Lovely lady and a voice that never changed.

    Simply sublime. I was born in 1966 but some of my earliest memories were listening to The Seekers.

    so many great and inspiring loving and wonderful songs with Judith Durham's angelic, heraldic voice, from an era a half century ago but The Seekers music is as beautiful and loving today as yesterday...

    I remember them from the 60’s as my mother liked the “Georgy girl” hit and played it often. I went on to love jazz and hard rock. Lately I find myself appreciating great music like this! What amazing performers! This music is sooooo sweet. Judiths voice is riveting with the boys backing her up. Thanks so much for posting this along with all the others you have rescued! Absolutely great!

    11:30 when Judith sings this, she doesn't only make me think of olive trees in Greece, but her voice also reminds me of Greeces most famous and respected female singer Maria Farantouri, who sang the Anthem of the Ballad of Mauthausen.

The video recording is quite rare to purchase and it was recorded in European TV standards which are not playable on USA video recorder, so I really appreciate your posting. Are ther going to be a part 3 and part 4 to complete the show?

    @grimTales1 It was released on VHS around 11 years ago, but only in PAL format. There are small differences to the Talk of the Town concert, but it was basically the same songs and banter. They were recorded a week apart and one obvious difference is that they don't sing 'Happy Birthday' to Judith in the video, as they do on the TOTT CD!

    • @Elizabeth-ci9ty
      @Elizabeth-ci9ty 4 роки тому +2

      I think a few people think that. I don’t believe that it is because of Mornington near Melbourne because it was written by Malvina Reynolds, who was from America. I think it’s just about waking up in the morning.

    • @ziggystardust52
      @ziggystardust52 3 роки тому +1

      I originally thought that, but realised it was Morningtown, as in where you end up in the morning after sleeping, which, when you listen to the lyrics, makes sense. When I saw it was written by Malvina Reynolds, who’d probably never heard of Mornington, it was clear it wasn’t about a mythical train to that seaside town.
