Autumn Records was a 1960s San Francisco-based pop record label. Among the notable acts on its roster was The Beau Brummels, a band who released a pair of top 20 singles, "Laugh, Laugh" and "Just a Little".
Also on the Autumn Records roster was The Great Society, a short-lived Haight-Ashbury group that recorded the first version of "Somebody to Love," which became a 1967 hit for Jefferson Airplane.
The label dissolved in 1966. Tom Donahue, a San Francisco DJ, who worked for KSAN radio, owned the record label. Donahue invented the genre "underground radio."
Rock producer/DJ Sly Stone was a producer for the label producing Bobby Freeman's "C'Mon And Swim"/"Do The Swim," a hit on the national and regional charts in 1965. Freeman had had some hits on Jubilee in 1958-60, and on King in the early 1960s, but became the first artist on Autumn to have any big-selling hits. Stone produced the Psyrcle's 45 on Lorna, which did not sell well regionally or nationally. The Psyrcle took a hiatus, rehearsed and regrouped before becoming the Rockets (later Crazy Horse, Neil Young's backing band), a band with eight members.
