The album is the only Seekers' album to feature the vocals of Australian singer, Julie Anthony. Following the performance, the group signed with Polydor Records and re-recorded some of the group's biggest hits with Anthony's vocals, along with several new songs written by group member Bruce Woodley. 25 Year Reunion Celebration (1993).

BBC farewell concert from The Seekers, in London, England, on July 7, 1968. All ages admitted, but certain scenes may be unsuitable for young children. May contain moderate violence if justified by context (.

The soundtrack of that concert was issued on CD decades later, and the 50-minute show itself came out on VHS around that time. But as of 2006, the program had not made its way onto DVD, paving the way for this unauthorized DVD release. Despite the rather amateurish packaging, the transfer itself is pretty good, and probably of just slightly lesser quality than you'd get on an official DVD. While this 18-song television special was well filmed and well performed, it might be a bit of a letdown for Seekers fans who value the group for the pop-folk style for which they were most famous.
