New Seekers - Pinball Wizard / See Me Feel Me (1973) • TopPop

The New Seekers are a British pop group, formed in London in 1969 by Keith Potger after the break-up of his group, The Seekers. The idea was that the New Seekers would appeal to the same market as the original Seekers, but their music would have pop as well as folk influences. They achieved worldwide success in the early 1970s with hits including “I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing“, “You Won’t Find Another Fool Like Me“ and “Beg, Steal or Borrow“. The group was formed after the disbanding of the successful 1960s Australian group the Seekers. Keith Potger, a member of the Seekers, put together the New Seekers in 1969, featuring Laurie Heath, Chris Barrington, Marty Kristian, and Eve Graham and Sally Graham (no relation), the latter of whom was a member of The Young Generation. After one album release, the line-up was reworked to comprise Eve Graham, Lyn Paul, Marty Kristian, Peter Doyle, and Paul Layton. The group were chosen to represent the United Kingdom in the 1972 Eurovision Song Contest. They entered with the song “Beg, Steal or Borrow“. The following year the group saw a slight dip, although they did score a top 20 hit with an adaptation of “Pinball Wizard“ and “See Me Feel Me“ from the Who’s Tommy Opera.
