Wow! What a Voice

I vaguely remember The Seekers from my childhood, but I have just discovered this recording of Judith Durham singing Plaisir D'Amour.

Jeez, what a voice!

Lovely, but not as beautiful as Mary Hopkin's version

The Carnival Is Over is my favourite Seekers song. Tugs at the heartstrings every time I hear it!

Judy Durham was a great singer, no doubts about that.

Thanks for the heads up Sam.
I'll certainly check out the Mary Hopkins version.

Cheers!

Thanks for the heads up Sam.

Great clip Robert.

Peggy Lee makes every song sound absolutely effortless.

I was always a big fan of Judith Durham - I saw The Seekers at Birmingham Hippodrome on about 1968 and her voice was pure silver. I think she may well still be performing. I agree that 'The Carnival Is Over' is shiver down the spine stuff.

The other female singer who I think comes very close to Judith Durham is Mary Black, whose rendition of 'No Frontiers' is guaranteed to turn me into a wobbly jelly....

.....both ladies are gorgeous.
