Pretty sure I was in love with her when I was a boy. Bummer.

Thanks Pim Tac. A wonderful, natural, effortless voice even nearly 50 years later:

Beautiful Lady with a beautiful voice.

Beautiful woman, effortless voice maybe the best female voice ever. RIP Judith, pretty sure we'll never find another you.

She was amazing with the Seekers.....and pushed both the Beatles and Rolling Stones off the charts with some of their big hits.
If you haven't watched their '68 BBC TV Live Farewell Show on YouTube it's an amazing show covering most of the Seekers best songs....
some of them even better than the released recordings. Amazing group with Judith as their star. I agree with Passport1......possibly the best female pop/folk voice ever. Australia's gift to the world.

I was quite familiar with their "Georgy Girl" hit in my youth.....and didn't realize that was Judith until about 10 yrs ago.
