In addition to the New Seekers' original albums, an almost bewildering number of compilation albums have been released. Many of these contain the New Seekers' original recordings featuring Lyn Paul but many contain re-recordings of the New Seekers' hits by a later line-up. To help you distinguish which of these are the "real thing" the New Seekers' compilation albums are listed below.
If you're missing any of these CDs, cassettes or LPs from your collection, try finding them using the On the Net guide to record collecting.

The New Seekers recorded two albums for CBS - Together Again (1976) and Anthem (1978). Both albums feature Danny Finn and Kathy Ann Rae, who replaced Peter Oliver and Lyn Paul in the group's line-up. These CDs feature tracks from both albums plus the New Seekers' other CBS recordings and tracks released on RCA by Marty, Paul & Danny, the trio formed by Marty Kristian, Paul Layton and Danny Finn before the New Seekers re-formed in 1976. For Lyn Paul and Peter Doyle fans this double-CD won't be of much interest, but for fans of the other New Seekers' this is a "must have".
