8. Greatest Hits (2009)
“Bizarrely, I discovered the seekers by accident. I couldn’t sleep one night, a few years ago, so decided to put the radio on. The DJ was playing lots of their songs, and I found myself drawn to them. I had to get the CD.”
7. All Bound For Morningtown: Their EMI Recordings (1964-1968) (2009)
“This is masterful folk music from the mid-1960’s that features a vastly talented Judith Durham. The hits are present in original and alternative versions [ I Know I’ll Never Find Another You , A World of Our Own etc]. But the real gold mine is the wonderful assortment of American and Irish folk tunes. There is also a nice sampling of gospel music that is highly credible.”
6. Seen In Green (1967)
“There are songs on the album written by three of the Seekers, Judith Durham, Keith Potger, and Bruce Woodley. My favorite performance on the album is Bruce Woodley’s solo in Angeline is Always Friday, a pensive, lyrical song about young love. Years later, Woodley would write a song called Streets of Serenade, commemorating the Seekers youthful years in their careers. From the songs on this album, you really feel that the Seekers were in love with what they did.”

5. Best Of The Seekers (1968)
“This well-paced anthology presents these tracks along with twenty others which showcase the group’s dynamic mix of folk, traditional gospel and pop. Highlights range from Judith Durham’s soaring vocals on “We Shall Not Be Moved” and “Come The Day” to the infectious folk-pop arrangements on “Love Is Kind, Love Is Wine” and “All I Can Remember.” If you missed The Seekers during their heyday or if you just need a reminder of why they were so good, this album is highly recommended.”
4. A World Of Our Own (1965)
“This is probably the most interesting of all albums by The Seekers. For a start the statements that it was produced by Tom Springfield and that it is a promotional copy and not for sale takes it way above a standard album. In addition the songs presented to us are an amazing selection. Allentown Jail recreates memories of the much loved Jo Stafford version by a singer who like Judith had a remarkable and individual voice; Four Strong Winds is of course one of the best modern folk songs and although it is really a male song I really believe that Judith could produce a version of it even greater than Neil Young.”

3. The Seekers (1964)
“The Seekers remain one of the best groups of the entire twentieth century. They had the ability to impart to their adoring audiences a certain intimacy whenever they performed and the crowds loved them for it. Although the group broke up after only a few years, their artistry lives on quite well through their awesome words and music.”
2. Come The Day (1966)
“The Seekers played an important role in the “British Invasion” of English music entering America in the 1960s. The Seekers offered people everywhere soothing rhythms and sweet melodies that proved to be both infectiously catchy and strikingly beautiful at the same time. The CD showcases their talents very well.”
1. Introducing The Seekers (1963)
“Judith Durham had arguably the best, pure voice of any female recording artist of the 1960’s. Her sensitivity and charm are exhibited in most of her songs. Judith’s vocals are rich and pure and in some of her recordings she sounds like an angel. The harmonies of the Seekers are also excellent, and they recorded several outstanding spiritual songs.”
