Mellotronists

If #354 (or #254 ... benefit of the doubt) really was one of the regular 
white-coated units that were seen touring with Crimson in the early years, 
then ...

Either way it would be a fascinating coincidence.

How does your recollection of the M400 you carpeted compare to the Islands 
Tron depicted at http://www-dcrp.ced.berkeley.edu/Cervero/crimtron.htm? You 
say the cabinet was in poor shape when you received the unit ... 
extensive-touring-with-frustrated-band-members-poor, perhaps?

Now, doth the craftsman recognize his work?
