Does anyone here like the Seekers?

I think they're quite respectable and i like the tunes you listed,particularly Georgie Girl and Morningtown Ride.
 
I heard an interview with Steve Bucknor once and he raved about the Seekers and how much he loved them - how can someone who comes from the land of Peter Tosh and Bob Marely love the seekers!!!!

How black is he?

I'll probably cop a bit of flak for this but I do. My favourite songs:

Georgie Girl
The Carnival is Over
A World of Our Own
Morningtown Ride

Consider yourself copping some flak.:)

Just have bad memories of a visiting teacher in Grade 3 bringing in his guitar and playing Morningtown Ride to us, he was going on New Faces and i think he did the same song. Most of the kid's obviously thought it was wonderful, but 2 or 3 of us felt like puking up.
 
i actually like a LOT of music that would be considered 'uncool' by my friends and foes alike :p (air supply,bread,smokie,little river band,leo sayer,reo speedwagon,frente')


But i never really liked the seekers.......but i respect what they achieved. Were a bit of a pioneer in Oz music
 
i used to think they were lame but ill give them credit some of theyre songs are cool

i wanna hear a death metal version of' georgy girl'

There's been a sorta punk version done by the Flying Lizards.

I love Someday, Oneday
I think The Carnival Is Over and World Of Our Own are very good.
I have Myra, Myra on a single, think it was my parents'. And a best of vinyl.
Georgy Girl and Morningtown ride I can't handle too well.
They were pioneers for sure and Judy had a great voice.

Their rendition of 'I am Australian' is pretty good. And Judith Durham has a great voice.
That wasn't by the Seekers was it? I thought it was Judith Durham and a few others (kind of a one-off supergroup setting). I Am Australian is a good song, very well-written.

I just don't dig the soft rock genre. There are a few good songs out there but I don't know if I could handle a full album by such an artist.
