Marmalade Legend Dean Ford To Release New Solo Album “This Scottish Heart”

Marmalade legend Dean Ford has finally released the project that showcases his under-appreciated talents as a writer, and instrumentalist. “This Scottish Heart” includes thirty tracks that will amaze the listener with its strong melody, intelligent harmonies and catchy song craft throughout.
As the lead vocalist of the U.K. group, Marmalade, Ford contributed to their eight Top Ten U.K. hits, throughout the 60s and early 70s, as altogether they had twelve songs in the Top 30. The group’s biggest International song was the now standard, “Reflections Of My Life,” which Dean co-wrote and is re-visited here as a tasteful acoustic number.
With lyrics covering all aspects of his life, Dean is finally able to relate the truth of his journey through these “reflections” of his life. A wide variety for many genres to enjoy.
