Re: [newmellotrongroup] Mellotron Infatuation

Tom, this may surprise you but people still use them on recordings.  
Mellotrons are experiencing renewed popularity. Would you like to own a fully  
restored one? I can offer you an exceptional example.

RE:  OK, now that we have you, fess up. What's your infatuation with  
Mellotrons?
 
This is a rhetorical question, right?  Until the wonders of the  Internet, 
I had to bore anybody who looked knowledgeable with  questions about the 
excellent sound on a few select 60's songs (for that  is my era).  The songs 
were '200 light yrs from home", and most of the  songs on "days of future 
passed' (except nights in white satin, which I am  sick of); pr'haps a few 
others.  This led to King Crimson, Genesis, and a  few others until the dark ages 
of the late 70s closed over us.
