It included some of Sydney's top musicians: Billy Green (guitar), Mark Kennedy (drums) and Duncan McGuire (bass) The band allowed Parkinson to showcase his powerful, soulful voice. With this band he rose to prominence with a number of Top 20 hit records in Australia such as "Dear Prudence" and "Without You", the latter written by guitarist and songwriter Billy Green (aka Wil Greenstreet) in the mid-1970s. When Green composed the soundtrack to the film Stone, Parkinson sang on two tracks. In 1969 Doug Parkinson In Focus won Australia's prestigious band competition, Hoadley's Battle of the Sounds. Other records include: "Baby Blue Eyes". After dissolving his new band, Fanny Adams, Parkinson formed a new In Focus in 1970.

Another top ten hit followed with "Everlasting Love".
