this forum doesnt like marcus work,unfortunatelly! probably because he brought mellotron to the masses


Allow me to be the first to say, “What a very childish response”. You may have noted that Martin & co. have also entered the digital realm...

      I'd rather see the real deal on stage, but this is better than nothing.

          I just got it ! Two Memotrons.  Classic line ups had 2 M400 on stage. I thought it had something to do with Soundscapes. I wasn't quite believing that Jakko was on board.  I am very glad I was wrong.

            I saw Jakko playing in the Schizoid band twice. His passion for the music of Crim is incandescent and very real. If that is rubbing off on Mr enigmatic it would be quite wonderful.

              Well since Mel Collins and Jakko Jakszyk are in this new Crimson, it stands to reason that the pre-1980 material is being brought out of retirement.

              Gino, you are going to get some vintage Crimson and that's why they have two Memotron racks. No more gossip from me but it is exciting!
