THE MARMALADE
Marmalade is one of those groups that just seem to endure. In the U.K., they are best remembered for one record, a cover of the Beatles' "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da," while in America, their sole major hit was the wistful "Reflections of My Life." They charted number one records and even Top Ten American singles into the '70s, and the group -- especially with in early-'70s incarnation -- had many sides, including white soul, harmony-dominated pop/rock, and progressive pop, all very much like the Beatles in their middle years. However, it was their cover of a Beatles song, oddly enough, that weighed down their reputation in their homeland.

.......the switch in drummers accentuated the change in Marmalade's sound, from a progressive pop/rock outfit to a much harder, more straight-ahead rock & roll band. The group's next album, Songs, represented both the new and the old groups' sounds...(AllMusic)
