I know exactly what you're talking about.  The Master was riding in a car 
and turned on a transistor radio or tape player or whatever.  Out came a 
lot of violins.  It seemed oddly out of context, not unlike when the 
Beatles made their appearance.

I've seen it at least twice.  I have NO idea what it was, but at my best 
reckoning it was neither the "Devil's Triangle" nor Mellotron.  Just some 
over-bearing string section.  I'd like to find out what it was, though.
