Gee, thank you for posting the video of The Seekers performing at the 1994 Australian Football League Grand Final in Melbourne, the group’s hometown. Their vocals were incredible given it had been 26 years since their break up in 1968. Judith Durham confirmed once again that she was one of the finest lead singers going around. The Bruce Woodley song, “I Am Australian”, which they sang, has long been considered an alternative to the official (and not greatly loved) Australian National Anthem. On the following ABC website (the Australian equivalent of the BBC), there is a recent half hour documentary on The Seekers (titled A World of Their Own) which can viewed until 8 May 2019. iview.abc.net.au/show/australian-storyI hope this can be accessed outside of Australia.

like The Rickfors Hollies the Seekers did a great Polydor album in the seventies with Louisa Wisseling who was a lovely singer and while she like Mikael was only there for around two years she too make a valuable contribution to a famous vocal group's recorded history and while Judith Durham is THE Girl singer of The Seekers Louisa deserved her place in their history as well
here they are again in 1975 with their blonde seventies female singer Louisa doing a Bruce Woodley song 'Love isn't Love Until You Give it Away'
After leaving The Seekers in 1977 Louisa got married and raised her family, she later became a teacher in Melbourne

and one final song featuring Louisa Wisseling the aptly named song 'Reunion' from 1975 tho' bass player Athol Guy is absent from this TV show appearance
this song is very ABBA-ish I think...!

Anthony, look up the word sarcastic and tell me if that sounds like you. Thanks Fred, think that's your real name, you just like to be controversial, very insulting really, hit and run, can't debate in fear you are wrong. Anyway for harmony I will not make conversation with you again. You enjoy the Rickfors era.
Anthony you remind me of that %!#@=;&& of a President we unfortunately have. Neither of you can accept responsibility for your words and you point fingers at others. I am through with you.
