Autumn

Following a tradition set by bands like The Affair, The Executives and Zoot, Sydney-based Autumn was unashamedly a pop band. Their debut single Mr Henry's Lollipop Shoppe at the start of 1970 set the tone for subsequent releases. The group's second single, Yellow River, was a cover of the recent hit by English band Christie. The song was also covered by Melbourne band Jigsaw, and the two Aussie groups shared a joint national Number 1 hit in August 1970.
