  • An original member of The New Seekers, Marty Kristian fronted the bend, even having his name as 'featuring Marty Kristian' for a period. His tales from his first cruise to the UK and playing with Bowie before either was famous make for a very interesting interview in the uCruise Doris Visits cruise podcast.
    The second formation of the band with Lyn Paul, Peter Doyle and Paul Layton is the one that everyone knows. They taught the world to sing and drink coke after the big hit of Look What They've Done To My Song Ma, which was actually recorded by the original line up; Laurie Heath, Chris Barrington, Marty Kristian, Eve Graham and Sally Graham (girls not related).
    He has many stories to tell.

    Met Marty and the group when they were in Sligo back in the mid 70's. Highlight of my teenage years 🎉🙏

    Excellent video. Marty is very humble but what a career he has had. The New Seekers were mega in the early/ mid 70s

    Marty is a very good speaker, interesting to hear some of his stories. I would have preferred to have had more of this time of thing in the recent NS book, it was rather bland. I was hoping for more behind the scenes stories like these. I actually saw the NS at Great Yarmouth during that summer season, we always used to go there for our summer holidays and we went to a different show every night. I probably still have the program somewhere as I always used to collect them.

    Oh for God's sake, all most people really want to know from him is what Eve and Lyn looked like naked.
    I loved his comment about Richard Nixon though.

      @ysgol3.
      Do you mean what they look like now, naked? I would say that their birthday suits will need a bloody good ironing!

      @@redblade8160 LOL I did say 'looked'. but thinking about it I'll take 'look' instead if necessary.
