Tom Springfield, the songwriter best known for writing some of The Seekers' greatest hits and as the brother of singer Dusty, died last month aged 88 according to posts on their official Facebook pages.
The page for the late Dusty Springfield carried the news of his death on Saturday, but revealed he had actually died in London on July 27.
The post went on to explain that "being a very private person, the news [of his death] somehow went under the radar and has only now come to light now".
