Johns, returned to Australia in 1977 and, after a brief stint with the band Fingerprint, in June of the following year he formed a new version of Blackfeather. It reunited him with the 1972 line-up of Ward, Wylde and Young. By October all except Johns had left, and were replaced by Ray Oliver on guitar (ex- Friends ), Huk Treloar on drums (ex- Pantha , Bleeding Hearts, Living Legends), Rick Rankin on guitar and Geoff Rosenberg on bass guitar (ex-Hot Air Band). Ex- the Dingoes drummer John Strangio briefly replaced Treloar, but this version folded by the end of the year.
