The Marmalade - Rainbow

[@goldheartbadge]

Marmalade never got the recognition they deserved as musicians. This beautiful acoustic pop-folk song is their crowning moment. Blow that mouth harp, Dean!

[@p.j.4738]

Maybe they didn't get the recognition 11 years ago but they now have almost 2 million views on "Rainbow" and not to mention "Reflections of my life" their biggest hit has over 38 million views, so no we can be fairly sure that Marmalade has secured their place in Rock & Roll History, on KZbin and other venues!

For many years I searched for this song "Raimbow", but now with the technology of the internet I found it, and I listen to it every day, which makes me an incredible asset, apart from the good memories that always come back in my life. Sou brasileiro, e essa musica me faz voltar ao meu tempo de adolescente, escutava muito este tipo de musica, que fizeram parte do que hoje tenho gravado em meu coração como musicas super especiais.

Always loved this flip-side to "Reflections Of My Life" as I have the 45 RPM single. It's a beautiful lesson in what ends up as three-part harmony. This video is a revelation in that only two members of the band sing. The third part toward the end must be multi-tracked over the first two. I never get tired of hearing this.

@Wildenfree1 Agreed- social unrest, civil rights, political revolution and anti-war protests made for some violent scenes on city streets in the late 60s, some of it justified (but I wouldn't condone it) but... as a backdrop, IMHO 1966 to 1969 really *was* the musical pinnacle of the 60s.

[@thebadloser]

Really underrated band. I think they weren't taken too seriously in the day because their first couple of hits stuck them firmly in the pop category at a time when being 'pop' or 'rock' was a credibility-dividing line that many bands found hard to recover from. If CSNY had done this would it now be hailed as a classic?
