It's a story about how Dave Biro wanted to create his own version of the Mellotron after hearing Rick Wakeman and not being able to afford one himself.
I put Paul Collins in touch with Dave Biro because I thought his story is / was missing in general discussions about how the Mellotron can be such an inspirational instrument.
And in Dave Biro's case the sound inspired him not just musically, but to come up with his own version of the Mellotron (which was the Birotron).
