Mellotronists

Ugh, god, no.  I really don't like Spock's Beard.

I was referring to the poor little orphaned Genesis track, the only
known recording of which I have as part of the "hogweeds" set of
remastered live boots.  I stripped the track out of the CD and bunged
it into "Cubase", intending to work on it myself, I thought it would
be a larf to play it live, especially to a progressive-orientated
crowd, if only to see the look of appalled recognition on the faces
of, I dunno, 2 people.

But, as anyone who's heard it knows, even in the remastered version (&
comparing this to the previously available version, the guy who did it
worked a miracle on it), the sound quality is really, really, really
bad.  wtfe, anyway.

Is there a recording of "Moss", from the same era out there, does anyone know?

best etc.
