Farewell Album
''Farewell Album'' is the final album released by The New Seekers in their early 1970s hit-making line up, released in 1974. It is also the group's last release on Polydor Records.
== Overview ==
In early 1974, despite being at the peak of their success, both female members Eve Graham and Lyn Paul had expressed their wish to leave the group. This was against the terms of their contract (which allowed for only one member to leave at a time), so came the announcement that the group were to split entirely.〔(Official website - Split information )〕 They released another single and album (both top 20 hits) before they performed their final shows in May.
They had however recorded a number of songs for Polydor before their disbanding and the label issued these as ''Farewell Album'' in August 1974 - three months after the group had ended. Two of the twelve tracks had been earlier recordings however.〔(Lyn Paul website - ''Farewell Album'' )〕 One single was released from the album, called "Sing Hallelujah".〔(Official website - "Sing Hallelujah" )〕 The single stalled outside the official top 50 in the UK at No.65, and as the album received no promotion from the group, it similarly failed to chart.〔(Lyn Paul website - "Sing Hallelujah" )〕 ''Farewell Album'' received a favourable review from ''Disc'' magazine, commenting on the fact that 10 of the 12 tracks feature female leads, while member Marty Kristian features on lead for just two of the songs.〔''Disc Magazine'', 17 August 1974, page 20〕
