Thank you Fil for including this great song. Dean Ford rerecorded this song prior to his passing. It was interesting to hear him sing it as an older man comparing it to when he was much younger. It appeared that the lyrics had a different effect to Dean. It was kind of sad for me to see him sing it as an older man as I sat there listening to it as an older man myself. I was happy to see him singing it once again though. It just goes to show how fast time goes in a lifetime and how short our youth is. Rest in peace Dean Ford and thank you to Marmalade for the music.

@ericheine2414 4 года назад

We believed in World Peace. Vietnam was still on in the background. Assassination of the Kennedys, Martin Luther King- Kent State. Everybody was reflecting on their life. And everybody knew and wanted to change. Every now and then this song plays in my head. The death of Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix 1970. Reflections Of My Life- this song really struck a chord. Thanks for doing the review Fil. This is a good piece of art and it evokes an emotional response. We believe in World Peace- we still do. "The world is bad place, a bad place, A terrible place to live." We really wanted to change that. This was soul- white soul.

@robincortez6586 4 года назад

Jimi Hendrix said, "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace." ✌ I don't think we're getting any closer to world peace, but music does unite people. I always think that people really need to take more time to listen to positive music, spend time with nature and practice small acts of kindness. 💜

@digitalbrand5510 4 года назад

This song was a staple on jukeboxes/radios during the Vietnam war, checkout the lyrics. The average age of soldiers then was 19 years old. The isoprinciple (music therapy term) meets the mindset that these drafted boys had watching each other get injured and die is staggering. The guitar solo “woman tone” is mournfully on point, too, brilliant. So many elements come together to make this piece perfect for those times. Amazingly great taste to choose this performance for your analysis, love it!

My suggestion to cover would not be one band, but rather one singer, Tony Burrows, who was the lead singer of 6 different bands that each had a one hit wonder. He was the singer of Edison Lighthouse ( Love grows where my Rosemary goes), White Plains ( My baby loves lovin), The Pipkins ( gimme dat ding), The First Class ( Beach Baby), Brotherhood of Man ( United we Stand) and The Flowerpot Men with Lets go to San Francisco where two band mates went on to join Deep Purple. Tony sang background as well with everyone from Rod Stewart, Cliff Richard, Tom Jones to Elton John, where he sang backup on Tiny Dancer and Levon. Incredible talent, that many wouldn’t know.

Since I commented on that song, I have done a lot of medical research and found that playing drums actually relights the neurons in the brain (albeit temporary) that Parkinson's kills off making movement difficult. From the time I totally lost my ability to play drums in 2020, with extensive practice and help from a few music professionals, I have regained over 90% of what I had lost and now play in a rock band, BackTrax which I formed. It's amazing what music can do for the human mind and body. I'm fighting this ghastly disease for as long as possible.

Jr. Cambell and Dean Ford had some inspired lyric and music collaborations. I remember this from 1970 as huge in radio play. I detect a similar close harmony in The Bee Gee's tunes. The studio version has that reverse masking psychedelic section in the solo that draws you in, though you don't realize what is happening in the passage. It is so clear and reserved for a distorted solo. Jr did not re-string his guitars to play left hand but was known to play it tuned to open E chord. Dean did an acoustic remake before he passed away and was accompanied by cello, violin and banjo that I really enjoyed.

I heard this song on the radio when I was a teen and really liked it. I always thought, it was played by the Bee Gees somehow? 5-6 years ago, stumbled upon it on YT, found out it's not the Bee Gees, but a different band, the Marmalade. What a big surprise? Great, ageless song, I still love it! 👍

Excellent Phil!! Thank you for elaborating on Junior's playing style. I only found out about him recently when I watch an old Marmalade video that popped up on my RU-vid and my first reaction was... "Oh , I have to find out who this guitarist is!!"

Your playing is incredible!!

I know I have harped on it before but it is little wonder that, with the British Invasion you kicked the door wide open and proved that you all had the upper hand. The Marmalade was no exception. I can't think of any avenue of rock and roll, that the Brits did not explore and many times bursting the bubble and crashing the party!! I appreciate beyond mere words, what our neighbors across the pond did.

It's not that American artists lacked the talent and vision, you have to consider Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, J. P. Richardson, Eddie Cochran, Otis Redding, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Duane Allman, Gram Parsons

My theory is that England took all of their world conquering power of old and channeled it into the music of the 1960s. "Britannia" ruled the airwaves back then.

@@robincortez6586 yes, best music in the 60,s came from the UK.
