the concert-goers at Expo 67 were notoriously Canadian and international "dignitaries" who snagged the best (free) seats and sat there stone-faced while the fans were stuck in the outskirts with lousy sound.

I have written one hundred comments, but there is always something else to say after listening to Judith once again. Her voice is unbelievably bright, clear. Each note is pitch perfect, and is wrapped in delicate harmonics combinations that seem to come straight from heaven. Delivery is always perfectly balanced, effortless. And when singing her beloved jazz or gospel songs there is that remarkable power unique to Judith Durham. But now she is gone. For the best part of half a century she recorded the best, and we now cherish this legacy.

It still looks and sounds as good 55 years on, in 2022, as it must have been at Expo 67 in the summer of 1967 in Montreal. Athol Guy starts by saying that the Seekers are proud to be singing on their country's National Day. However, Australia Day is 26 January and this was in June or July 1967. Is there another day in the Australian calendar that he was referring to? (Not Anzac Day which is 25 April.)
