ELP's brief tron usage

ELP's brief tron usage

2006-04-27 by charel196

anyone here ever get to see ELP when they had the M400 onstage which 
apparently Greg Lake played? I had heard it was only used a few times 
til it malfunctioned and they canned it. I've seen photos of Keith and 
Greg at the tron....

They used it [the tron, the mellotron ;-) ] for Abadon's Bolero, with 
little success.

"Tron" was a science fiction movie released in the early eighties, starring Jeff Bridges with a score by Wendy Carlos. Everyone on this list is very fond of that movie and invoke it at any opportunity. No 'trons were used in the making of "Tron", it featuted the Synergy and GDS systems, so any discussion of trons is completely off topic to this list. 
   Sorry
