M400 #871 alive again
2005-04-04 by Harry
Just a short announcement that M400 871 is among the living again. Toured extensively in LA during the 70's and 80's long past fashionability, it was then relegated to scaring the bejeezus out of trick or treaters at Haloween. For reasons involving some kid asking me about Crimson, I recently hauled the beast to a local High School where brain damage insued among the players in the band room. Thus inspired, I took it upon myself to return the instrument to its former glory and status as a working instrument - with great success. These Mellotrons are great intruments, to be judged not in terms of synthesizers but of the true intruments which reflect what mankind and expression of the inner workings of music entail. enough Regards Harry Hurt
