The Seekers - A World of our Own (1968 - Stereo, HQ video)

[cpmgroup]

These and others of the final folk musicians toured colleges mid '60s (I booked a bunch); it was the last phase of true folk resurgence (acoustic). Seekers would play a bill with Lettermen/Brothers Four. But probably not so far ahead as to consider Dylan. All the guys were in love with Judy. Several others: Mamas/Papas, Ronstadt, Dylan,came in more hip, electric and contemporary. So, on this day Davy Jones died, I know how the doo-woppers felt when that plane went down with Buddy & Richie. RIP

I'm too old to stalk anyone now

[Syzygy60]

[JesseTheRef]

I wonder who the dislike was on this video????? Hmmmmm ...

[bohemixx]

@JesseTheRef

The dislike is someone who lives in a world of his own - where music is banned

[JesseTheRef]

juduth smiles at you and says come with me to a world of our own.Wouldnt you have dropped everything to take her up on the offer??????

[dumboldon]

Ummm, have I mentioned that she is the voice of the Goddess on Earth?

It's simply the truth...

Please listen to Her.

[TheVideoJukebox1]

[BradBrassman]

Memories Ahhhh, sunday mornings two-way family favourites!!!!!!!!!

[sketchguy2006]

I was right...the pitch WAS too high!  Thanks for fixing this; with the wrong pitch, it sounded like it wasn't Judith singing.

[ncaffrey001]

Folk-Pop music at it's very best. The Seekers were super and this is one of my favorite songs of theirs. Thanks so much for posting...Norm

[harry10313]

I'm 17 years old and I like this song very much!

[Peepersz]

Judith Anytime on Stage is a Treat..Back Then She Was a Work of Art Now Preserved for Alltime

[sejd51]

Cool song :0)

[hedwegg]

A Jamieson Smile: 1968 Judith: Roses come in many colors. The Color Judith is wearing is one of the colors of the Rose. It's associated with "love & comfort" as in "peace of mind".

A Jamieson Note: Judith also uses this color in her 1968 video,

"Colours of my Life", the title of her book.

With loving eyes & heart,

Jamieson (Peter).

[skooterbud05]

[howzitgoin1970]

Rich, you are quite talented--and patient--and thorough!

[vohor1]

Great stuff, rich963! :)

The bongos definitely best left out (they nearly spoil this, my favourite Seekers track, on the 2007 Ultimate Collection CD my wife bought me for Christmas); don't remember bongos from my original vinyl EP bought in the '60s but which, to my shame, I cannot now find.

[musicbruv]

@vohor1 I can defiantly remember bongos on the original as I used to like listening to them .

[vohor1]

@musicbruv I don't doubt that bongos were in the original mix; it's just that in the 2007 Ultimate Collection CD version they seem to me to be far too loud to the point of jarring with my enjoyment of the track (and my probably defective memory of a mono version on vinyl now lost to me). However, if you enjoyed the bongos far be it from me to cast aspersions and I happily withdraw my "bongos definitely better left out" comment!

[grimTales1]

It sounded like there were bongos there originally to me too.

[grimTales1]

Excellent. You did a great job restoring this.

Were the bongos in it originally? I can hear something faint like a drum in there.

[rich963]

@grimTales1 Well, there was a percussion instrument of some kind which sounded like bongos to me! It was also on 'I'll never find...'. I thought it would be nice to hear the song without them, so I used an audio editing app to remove them. I liked the result, so used it on this vid.

[iowa61]

For the uninitiated, this is no small achievement. Restoring archival footage (video or audio) is no mean feat. But to actually use the original stereo source audio and mate that perfectly (in fact BETTER than) to the original video is pure, hard work. Bravo. Bravo...
