Glasgow band, later known as Marmalade, formed in 1961. Single on Columbia.

In the late 60s and into the 70s, with a name change to Marmalade, the band had 11 charting records in the UK, including 8 in the Top 10. As Marmalade, they're perhaps best remembered for their cover of the Beatles' Ob La Di Ob La Da (1968, #1 UK) and the original by Dean Ford (b.Thomas McAleese) and Junior Campbell, Reflections Of My Life (1969, #3 UK), covered in Australia by Flake. See also their composition Rainbow (1970), covered in Australia by Elm Tree.

Junior Campbell later wrote the theme to Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends.
