Thanks for posting this @Redcarmoose.:beyersmile:
My late father loved The Seekers. Their music always reminds me of my early childhood. I hadn't heard this for well over 50 years!
Judith Durham was a very good singer.

Many good memories of hearing their songs on the radio when I was growing up in the US in the '60's / '70's.

And, I was reminded of these performances:

The Seekers - I Am Australian, Georgy Girl, Waltzing Matilda, (Live, 1994, + Aus National Anthem!)


The Seekers - I'll Never Find Another You (1964, HQ STEREO) Playlist


The Seekers - The Times they are a-changin' (1965 Rare Stereo version) Playlist

'I'll Never Find Another You' was one of my father's favourites. I was six or seven years old when it came out in the UK!
It sent shivers down my spine hearing it again for the first time in maybe 50 years, and also seeing that video for the first time.

Ha. Lost and found moment for me too; as why I posted it.

I initially bought the standard/US issue of Jeff Beck's album, "Jeff," and loved it. A short time later, I stumbled across the Japanese issue of the album. I noticed that there were additional tracks, so I bought it again (and it wasn't cheap.) One of the additional tracks was "Take A Ride (On My Bottleneck Slide.)" If you have never heard it, and like Blues guitar leads, or you're a Jeff Beck fan, you're in for a treat! Nobody does it like Jeff! Enjoy!

Jackson Browne's 2005 live album: 'Solo Acoustic Vol 1'
1605453033581.png


This album has some great acoustic versions of classic JB songs, including:
These Days
For a Dancer
Fountain of Sorrow
The Pretender.

All of them bring a lump to my throat, but this one- 'Your Bright Baby Blues'- is probably my favourite and still gets me every time I hear it!


As usual, JB's lyrics are brilliant and moving:

'I'm sitting down by the highway
Down by that highway side
Everybody's going somewhere
Riding just as fast as they can ride
I guess they've got a lot to do
Before they can rest assured
Their lives are justified
Pray to God for me baby
He can let me slide

'Cause I've been up and down this highway
Far as my eyes can see
No matter how fast I run
I can never seem to get away from me
No matter where I am
I can't help thinkin' I'm just a day away
From where I want to be
Now I'm running home baby
Like a river to the sea

Baby if you can see me
Out across this wilderness
There's just one thing
I was hoping you might guess
Baby you can free me
All in the power of your sweet tenderness

I can see it in your eyes
You've got those bright baby blues
You don't see what you've got to gain
But you don't like to lose
You watch yourself from the sidelines
Like your life is a game you don't mind playing
To keep yourself amused
I don't mean to be cruel baby
But you're looking confused

Baby if you can hear me
Turn down your radio
There's just one thing
I want you to know
When you've been near me
I've felt the love stirring in my soul

It's so hard to come by
That feeling of peace
This friend of mine said
"Close your eyes, and try a few of these"
I thought I was flying like a bird
So far above my sorrow
But when I looked down
I was standing on my knees
Now I need someone to help me
Someone to help me please

Baby if you need me
Like I know I need you
There's just one thing
I'll ask you to do
Take my hand and lead me
To the hole in your garden wall
And pull me through'
