I met David right after he went and picked up all the Mellotron stuff from
the courts and I just like to say that everybody should give Dave Kean a
little more appreciation. He was the one who saved the Melloteron from the
dumpster. He tried to keep the thing alive by finding and fixing trons and
supplying new tapes and then building a new ones that sounds and works
Great. If you want to know the TRUE story ask David Kean to make you a copy
of the tape in Les Bradley own words sent to him when he got all the
Mellotron stuff. (Tears to my eye!). Not till the Tron started to make a
comeback by DK did the boys across the pone started to do there work again.
