Very sad news, I loved the Georgy Girl song, written by Jim Dale I believe. Were the New Seekers related in any way to the Seekers.

I can't stand their music. Pop folk does nothing for me It gives me the creeps. Then again I hate light poppy stuff. (Sorry JK) You're forgiving of course with Genesis and 10cc.

The Seekers were also extremely popular in the States also. Even the record shop I recently go to had a load of their stuff in think they were first pressings or first issues. They flew off the racks in a few days even the 45's.

A friend of a friend of a friend of a friend. (He might of been an acquaintance for a gig if memory serves me correctly) He lived near Peter Yarrow from Peter, Paul and Mary said he was always and his conviction shocked nobody from the area,. He stated he always looked creepy looking and odd and their music matched his personality 'awful'. Yet they sold millions of records I don't care if Puff The Magic Dragon is fairy-tale or a drug song it's just shit.

I thought that was Rocky by Dickie Lee, somehow Austin Roberts made a catchy cover.

Sorry for the terrible grammar. I was typing quickly before work.

The bloke who was an acquaintance of mine who went to a gig with a group of mates (Tesla in 1989). He lived near Peter Yarrow and he said that Yarrow always 'looked creepy and dodgy. Yarrow's conviction shocked nobody from the district and he had a smile that was just beyond scary'.

Yarrow was convicted of abusing a 14 year old "groupie" and was later pardoned by President Carter. I don't know if it was because he turned out to be innocent or if the president was a fan of Puff.

Carter was fucking useless. All in the same club !

No doubt that Yarrow had stuff on Carter...that's for another day.
