Wikipedia:
The Blackfeather album At the Mountains of Madness included the track Seasons of Change, co-written by Neale Johns and John Robinson. During recording in late 1970, Robinson asked members of the group Fraternity, John Bissett and Bon Scott, to contribute to the album. Johns and Robinson gave Fraternity Seasons of Change to record as a single, with Scott on lead vocals. Fraternity relocated to Adelaide and released it in March 1971, peaking at #1 on the Adelaide charts. Robinson had a verbal agreement with Infinity’s David Sinclair that their label would not release the original Blackfeather version to compete with it. However, as soon as Fraternity’s version began charting in Adelaide, Festival broke that agreement and rush-released the Blackfeather version as a single.
