Marmalade are a Scottish pop rock band from the east end of Glasgow, originally formed in 1961 as the Gaylords and later billed as Dean Ford and the Gaylords, releasing four singles on Columbia (EMI). In 1966, they adopted the name the Marmalade, under which they released all subsequent recordings for CBS Records and Decca Records until 1972. Their greatest chart success came between 1968 and 1972, placing ten singles on the UK Singles Chart and achieving international hits such as “Reflections of My Life”, which reached No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 3 in the UK in January 1970, and their cover of “Ob‑La‑Di, Ob‑La‑Da”, which topped the UK chart in January 1969, making them the first Scottish act ever to reach No. 1. As original members began to depart in the early 1970s, the band left Decca in 1972. In 1973, the first evolved lineup rejoined EMI Records and began releasing music simply as Marmalade, a credit used on all subsequent releases Graham Knight, a member since the pre‑Marmalade era of Dean Ford and the Gaylords, remained with the group until September 2010. Marmalade continue to perform with no founding members, featuring various later lineups including vocalist Sandy Newman, who has been part of the band since 1975 and continues to tour on the nostalgia circuit.
