It has been a tough week for australian female singers..... we also lost Judith Durham, singer for the Seekers, aged 79 from bronchiectasis, a chronic lung disease.
The Seekers bridged a difficult period between the folky skiffle era and the start of the pop/rock explosion in the early 60s. A bit "straight and geeky" to modern eyes, they typify the folk scene of the early 60s, but their singles "There'll never be another you" and "The Carnival is Over" were hugely successful - and "Georgy Girl" was the anthem of "Swinging London"......
