Albums:

At The Mountains of Madness (1971)
Boppin' the Blues (1972)
Blackfeather Live at Sunbury (1974)


Here's some tracks from their "At The Mountains of Madness" album from 1971, unfortunately I cannot find their popular song from that album "Seasons Of Change", but I've got their more harder edged songs.

Oh and you're all wondering what happened with this group - unfortunately after their "At The Mountains of Madness" album, band members changed and before you knew it they were "Boppin' The Blues" before finding some original form back at Sunbury in 1973, though I haven't been able to find their album they did from Sunbury (probably have to search for a vinyl!)

This is not bad. Have never heard this band. But I'll track down an album by them now

If you liked those tracks then definitely get "At The Mountains of Madness" album, though I have a feeling most of the tracks are on YouTube.

"Boppin' The Blues" was also another hit track for Blackfeather, though a backward step for the band due to personal changes, which makes ATMOM sound superior, not that I don't mind "Boppin' the Blues", though it sounds more like a 50s Rock 'n' Roll.
It might of been the success of another Aussie band by the name of Daddy Cool which created a short period of Rock 'n' Roll Rhythm Resurrection in the 70s which drove Blackfeather to do "Boppin' The Blues", though I'm merely guessing this is what happened.
