I am sad to hear this. The Seekers are a guilty pleasure of mine.

Another artist in my musical teenaged life has passed.

She had a wonderful voice, and the Seekers were a great pop band. They are a magical sound from my childhood, along with such as the Beatles, the Kinks, and the Four Tops. I still listen to the Seekers regularly when I'm driving.

For me, it was Morningtown Ride. It has an almost childlike innocence and sense of hope. Just beautiful - I'm eight years old all over again whenever I hear it!
