THE WHEELBARROW

The Wheelbarrow was a relatively unknown suburban band who in 1969 decided to record this tribute to Dame Zara Holt on the Spin label who had a lonely-hearts column in a Sydney newspaper at the time. The single went nowhere. When not gigging, band members Charlie Wright, Tony and Jim Mitchell would play on sessions for other artists who recorded on producer Martin Erdman's Du Monde label. In 1970 The band recorded a single ''Yakety Yak'', under the fictitious name, The 1957 Stadium Rockers (Alias The 1905 Ramsgate Ballroom Dance Band). They later morphed into Harry Young and Sabbath when Harry Young was brought in to provide vocals on ''San Bernardino''. The band featured bassist Tony Mitchell who went on to stardom in Sherbet.
