ยทI just spent entirely too much time going through videos of The Seekers - I'm going to say that I think it is, but can't come up with a picture clear enough. In case anyone else wants to join in, these are the videos that I found that have the best examples:
The "Water is Wide" was shot on the the ship Fairsky that, along with its sister ship Fairstar, was a regular visitor to Australia in the 1960s bringing migrants from Europe as well as running cruises out of Australian ports. I'm fairly certain my parents took me on one of these ships when I was very young, have vague actual recollections of the trip but the names came up in family conversations.
"Louisiana Man" was shot outside, and presumably also inside, Melbourne High School, the most prestigious selective high school in that city. Used to live nearby and walk past that school on the way to work in the city very often as a young man.
