Mellotronists

Hi there!

It's my first introduction to Kevin's solo work... I thought I'd 
start with his first and work my way through each album in 
cronological order... Shooting at the Moon next then.

I'm familiar with his stuff on the Soft Machine's first album and 
also the 'new' BBC release.

I love 'Joy of A Toy' though... I've been playing all day!!

Best wishes

Philip
