For the first time ever, all seven songs featured on The Seekers record-breaking Melbourne concert in 1967 will be released as part of a new three-volume series next month.
The iconic Australian group's show at Sidney Myer Music Bowl was attended by over 200,000 people (the venue only had a capacity of 13,000). Though four songs from that gig have been unearthed since, the three remaining tracks - A World Of Our Own, The Leaving Of Liverpool and Red Rubber Ball - will feature on Volume One of the Hidden Treasures album series set for release on 22 May.
Other songs to feature on the albums include jingles for Melbourne radio station from 1963, two recordings featuring The Seekers (uncredited) as backing singers for Australian singer Frankie Davidson, as well as two tracks that the four-piece recorded for Coca-Cola during a US tour.
The remaining two volumes of the Hidden Treasures series will be released over the next 12 months.
