I can also suggest "Three Friends". The vamp at the end has wonderful  
interplay between the very-churchlike organ and the M300 they were  
using at that time. It's one of those supreme mellotron moments, IMHO.  
I only wish Kerry Minnear had used it more. I think he had a very good  
approach to the instrument.
