I was only nine years old when The Seekers broke up. Neither the group nor its breakup was not significant to this nine-year old. But I sure liked the tunes playing on my mother’s kitchen radio while the songs were at the top of the charts. Georgy Girl, Morningtown Ride, and The River is Wide crystalized a few of my young brain cells to instantly recall these tunes many years later. Happy times!
For some reason, I recently ran across The Seekers on Youtube. I got hooked and watched about 10 hours of videos — concerts and documentaries — of The Seekers. The first time I’ve gone beyond the nice tunes.
