This Scottish group became the Marmalade around 1966, at which point they recorded the proto-Hendrix single “I See the Rain.” By 1968, they were a UK hit-making machine with songs like their no big deal cover of “Ob-la-di Ob-la-da” (a UK #1) and their biggest US hit, the memorable “Reflections of My Life” (1970). But back to DF and the Gaylords – I think “That Lonely Feeling” is a masterful slice of early Beatle-ish balladry and wow, that guitar solo is a remarkably tasteful little affair.

I got this from a compilation of obscure but gorgeous late sixties/early seventies odds and ends called “Fading Yellow.” Would love to hear as much of this early Dean Ford stuff as possible but this is all I have. I’m also a big Marmalade fan so please do tell me more about this site.
