Marmalade did some great records but sadly only seemed to remembered for Ob-La-Di. This is the greatest track they did….
Colin Norton… Absolutely agree with Alan – “Rainbow” was another good one..
Andy Qunta… Great record!
Dave Nattress… Totally agree. Used to see them on TOTP’s a lot and they did some great singles. Bought The Very Best of Marmalade on CD years ago from the record shop that used to be in George Street on the left between the Pump House and the big old hardware shop. Is on the Fat Boy Records label – 1993.
Alan Esdaile… I think you mean Old Town Music, Dave.
