Ah, they just don't make them like Judith Durham any more! Humble, articulate, decent, thankful, supremely gifted. I remember when The Seekers disbanded,and my late mother was so sad at that. She really loved that Band and all of their wonderful music. Ms Durham's legacy is immortal, and is one of the all time great female singers in my book!

She had one of the most exquisitely pure singing voices I've ever heard. Natural, warm, effortless - it had everything. I got such joy from listening to the Seekers.

[@ShadowHawk4219]

Amen to that.😇. Rest in Paradise Ms. Judith Durham

[@frankscivier4874]

Rosemary, I must disagree with you slightly. She didn’t have “one of the most exquisitely pure singing voices I’ve ever heard”. Judith Durham had THE most exquisitely pure singing voice. Sadly, in August last year the world lost the greatest singing talent it’s ever had and, almost certainly, will ever have. Thank god, we have so many recordings of her!.

[@phillip9468]

I only watched from on tv the year that Judith Durham & the Seekers performed at the Grand Final. The incredible roar of cheers & applause at the end of "I Am Australian", made the hair on my neck stand up & will remain with me forever. Thank you for the memories of your crystal clear beautiful voice Judith Durham, you were truly "Australian".

Just returned home to Canada a couple of evenings ago from Scotland where I attended a cremation service for my Mother on the 29th July. The only man she ever loved passed on some 17 years ago and the only woman who came between mother and father was an Australian singer by the name of Judith Durham. For me Judith will always be Friday. RIP.

The last couple of months I’ve been listening so much to The Seekers reminding me of my childhood in the sixties iconic group and singer will be much missed.

[@JimmyT132]

I was in elementary school on the 60's and grew up hearing this music. My older sisters listened to the radio while doing the dishes or working on their homework. It was the sweetest time, and I'd give anything to go back and live for a day back then. Not as a do-over, but just to feel that way again and see the things and people who are gone. That's impossible, but hearing this wonderful music is the next best thing. Thanks in heaven to Judith.😢🙏

I have been listening to The Seekers for many,many years. I sang a few of their songs in a school pantomime. The first song i remember ever hearing was,as i called it "Rockin,rollin,riding". I sang it just as i sat at my first grandchilds christening, forgetting that a family friend attending is Australian. He looked at me as if to say" how on earth do you know that song?". Beautiful lady Judith. Condolences to her family and band members. From Ireland.
