My favourite band and singer...Dean Ford. Outstanding live performance indeed.

[@terrykevincharles7042]

The brilliant group of the original Marmalade, legendary group and what can I say about the beautiful "Reflections Of My Life" other than to say it will remain my forever song as long as I live. Thank you Junior and Dean (R.I.P🌹) for writing and putting this amazing song together. It relates to my life as I'm sure it does for many others too. One of the all time great groups re Marmalade 🎵♥️

[@mariakralova2395]

Nádherná a neprekonateľná skupina Marmalade s neprekonateľným interpretom Deanom Fordom! Patrí im môj obdiv ❤❤!

[@patriciaisaias54]

También es la canción de mi vida tristemente bella ....una joya

[@raymondgill9796]

Ob la di is a great cover of a Beatles tune but Reflections is on a whole other level great song and musicianship and a wonderful vocal. Magic!

[@milbury55]

The Marmalade are the best band to come out of Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@annetteminett8500]

The best band

[@Eaglesmusic]

Nice to see this Junior. It is always a pleasure, enjoying Marmalade, and you got that award! It was well deserved.😊❤

[@deborahrobertson8606]

Absolutely beautiful.After all these years, I finally realise what a great group Marmalade was..and how deeply beautiful "Reflections" is. Thank you gentlemen.

[@Jade447]

An impressive live performance! Mix of instruments, voices, harmony, lyrics and a lot of emotion. A part of the song 'Reflections ' ... was cut, but it's also magnificent!!

[@unasavage]

Thanks for this beautiful video of the amazing Marmalade with Dean Ford ❤

[@reoldies3783]

Still love Marmalade ❤ Seattle, Wa.

[@jorgerodriguez-pc3jx]

De niño siempre escuche esa cancion, Ahora es la mejor cancion que e escuchado en mi vida, un Abrazo hasta el Cielo al gran Dean Ford.

[@HerFatherDidntLikeMe]

I was three months old when this was broadcast. So, obviously, I don't remember it. I think "Reflections Of My Life" is a masterpiece. Great lyrics, melody, performance, and production. I was blown away to find this live version.

[@richwalker7912]

Such an inspiration! I’d come and see you at the Marquee most Thursdays and watched how you’d treat Tamla songs with your harmonies! It was my first lesson in arranging and I’ve done loads since! Thank you so much…..

[@michaeldefeo2272]

Great song. Very relevant after all these years in 2024.

[@cherylwilliams364]

Omg just came across this video and remembered my mom singing this song wOW!!!

[@podge65]

A true classic that gets played all the time in my house

[@Ken_Dodds_Tickling_Stick]

Simply the best.....thank you.

[@Freakaboogie]

Wonderful stuff!!!!!!

[@kathyscoppettuolo7168]

great harmonies! very nice.. can hear the Scottish accent come through in Dean

[@PeterJones-yq1xw]

Another great performance 😊

[@antonnym214]

Junior, I made a list of the 10 songs I would have to have on a deserted island, and Reflections was my favorite. I love your playing on the record, especially the little bit that was played in reverse. It's crazy good! All good wishes.

[@normanmorgan1596]

Thanks for posting Junior, always great to see live recordings of one of our greatest ever bands. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

[@artman102]

I thought I had seen all of their live performances of "Reflections of my Life", but this one was hidden at the end of this video. Thanks for sharing this great, Live performance.

[@robinsites9790]

Love it! Thanks for posting.

[@bloodshotgamer3532]

Thank you so much for sharing this amazing performance.

[@ScrewballMcAdams]

Fabulous vocals on Reflections. Bravo! 🎉🎉

[@arletequeiroz409]

Saudades eternas dos Marmalade! Dean Ford, com sua voz única, linda , maravilhosa ❤ Saudade eterna do Dean Ford ❤ Marmalade sempre no meu coração ❤🇧🇷

[@chrisbergner7077]

What a great jewel !!!! Thank you very much Junior! ... It made my month 😊😊😊 ... greetings from Germany ...

[@그냥이-k9t]

Wow, this is exciting and wonderful. Still, 'Reflections of my life' is the best. Dean Ford is handsome and has a great voice.

[@wilmanew5386]

Love watching this. ☺️💓💓

[@aprilanthony5098]

Wonderful all round, thank you for this.

[@bluedotmusic]

Interesting piece of Marmalade history here Wullie. Must be one of the only time the Ivor Novello awards were on the telly, good to see you and Pat dressed up for the occasion!!! FR

[@JuniorCampbellmusic]

shoulda seen Major Tom

[@alanhesketh9265]

Great stuff! Thanks Junior. :)

[@BassistPaul]

Priceless performance. The number of string players in the orchestra is a reminder of arguably better times for freelancers. (And you can't beat a low A on bass trombone!)

[@Rikkki01]

Brilliant,,,,,,,,,,

[@Mirinda1990]

Increíble video 😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 saludos

[@desmagennis7830]

Soooo good singing live ❤

[@derekec]

Gifted musicianship and heavenly voices. I'd always wondered who sang the wonderful harmonies to already throat wrenching lead. What a treasure of a video too. Thank you for the music.

[@johncampbell2979]

What a nice trip in the "time machine"

[@bluersheehy1935]

My all time favourite song . Thank you Junior Cambell

[@johnrankine7032]

One of Scotland's finest.

[@NancyNoriega-e6i]

Just as I wrote on another post, I fell in love with Dean's voice when i heard this song. I was 6 years old. Original Marmalade the best group!!!!!!

[@michaelmoloney5518]

I have loved reflections for years what a great performance hope you are well junior r I p dean

[@ABressanutti]

Thanks

[@tonyecclestone3906]

Sound City amps...fab!

[@warrenbutterfield4208]

Ahhhh Where are they now!?!?

[@tkrosschell]

So wonderful to see this along with your insight, Junior. Seamless and beautiful!

[@kevinrowland4657]

Amazing

[@diegogallegos633]

The marmalade is wonderfull

[@derekec]

btw, pasting a comment I've just written on a DF video. General sentiment for you jNR, tho was directed for Dean of course. "One of my lifelong favorites since hearing on radio circa '69. I only wish I'd followed members of Marmalade closely all these years. I've lost out. Dean's sweet tenor brings me to my knees. I guess he had some hard times. Music can rescue our souls so I can only hope Dean eeked out some happiness. He gave and continues to give to mine. ❤"

[@brianmac8260]

Ah I see, that's where it comes from. Great drum sound. Proper amps.

[@BraveheartOBM]

I like the golliwog on the drums as it was on marmalade jars ... wouldn't work today though ... ha ha ... magic music nevertheless... cheers

[@brianmac8260]

@@BraveheartOBM Even mentioning it isn't PC. Different days.

[@BraveheartOBM]

It's all too sensible ... it's a wonder they don't object to saying something like, blimey it's white as snow ... lol ... original band name may now have been ok now with the pride lot ... cheers anyway, have a good one

[@tommyalbertson2040]

Im a Lennon guy..but I atill love the fab 4.

[@radwulfeboraci7504]

Having watched 4 or 5 other Marmalade videos from this period, there is one thing in the Reflections song that I did not hear in the others. In the last half of the song, it is clear in the call and answer by Mr. Ford that he had a really good R&B tone that is not heard in other songs. You wonder why he did not employ it more often.

[@tommyalbertson2040]

JR... with out Dean forget about it!

[@marcharrison1970]

There's another version of Reflections with the guitar solo spliced in.

[@Estee.Ar.6869]

But Reflections' guitar solo was one of the best part!

[@sjm5482]

Question - The vocal that stands out after the harmonies, "All my crying" etc. does not match with the lead singer's voice, though he is mouthing the words in this and one other video I've seen. On other videos, he isn't mouthing those lines at all, but the vocal is present. It sure sounds like Levi Stubbs, uncredited. Anyone know the story?

[@warrenbutterfield4208]

Odd isn’t it? That Whenever you appear on Tv it always adds a couple of pounds of lip-synching. 😏

[@marcharrison1970]

No Dean Ford was one of the greatest vocalists of his generation. This was a live performance. Just check out his covers of The Band and CSN.

[@solcasared]

Where is the marmalade were the original Band there was very few bands that can match them live I know I’ll see them at least a dozen times

[@daydreambeliever6603]

What methods were used to get Dean’s stick straight hair to curl? I guess we were all that young once upon a time. Other than beautiful silver hair, you haven’t aged. Thank you for the look back.

[@warrenbutterfield4208]

Jeri Curl…. Copious amounts used during the filming of the infamous Soul Train Dancers. 🎼🚂🕺🏾💃🏾

[@Nicholas-w4u]

No comments about racist gollywog ❓ Ok, differant times but wince making ( would make Thomas the Tank Engine wince!) and you couldl make some apology Junior Campbell ? Hallelujah Freedom ! Good tune though

[@aliciarobertson4979]

No apologies necessary. This was another era and we weren’t being racist liking gollywogs. The Marmalade took the gollywog from the Scottish renowned Robertson’s Marmalade label which had the gollywog as part of their brand. Every jar 🫙 label of their various products had a gollywog coupon which we saved and redeemed for lovely enamelled badges of gollywogs in various activities; sports, music etc. I still have my collection and I was born in 1947 like Junior. ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎼❤️

[@MB-oj1sy]

Delete-proof this, please.

[@AnthonyCooper-f8t]

Remember seeing the band play this in The Cragburn. Brilliant. You were a big influence on me, here’s my version of Reflections. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j569iq1-adpna6cfeature=shared
